We consider the problem of optimal recovery of true ranking of $n$ items from a randomly chosen subset of their pairwise preferences. It is well known that without any further assumption, one requires a sample size of $\Omega(n^2)$ for the…

We describe a seriation algorithm for ranking a set of items given pairwise comparisons between these items. Intuitively, the algorithm assigns similar rankings to items that compare similarly with all others. It does so by constructing a…

We consider a ranking problem where we have noisy observations from a matrix with isotonic columns whose rows have been permuted by some permutation $\pi$ *. This encompasses many models, including crowd-labeling and ranking in tournaments…

We consider multichannel sparse recovery problem where the objective is to find good recovery of jointly sparse unknown signal vectors from the given multiple measurement vectors which are different linear combinations of the same known…

We propose a time-varying graph signal recovery method for estimating the true time-varying graph signal from corrupted observations by leveraging dynamic graphs. Most of the conventional methods for time-varying graph signal recovery have…

This paper investigates the problem of graph signal recovery (GSR) when the topology of the graph is not known in advance. In this paper, the elements of the weighted adjacency matrix is statistically related to normal distribution and the…

We demonstrate a simple greedy algorithm that can reliably recover a d-dimensional vector v from incomplete and inaccurate measurements x. Here our measurement matrix is an N by d matrix with N much smaller than d. Our algorithm,…

We present a new computational approach to approximating a large, noisy data table by a low-rank matrix with sparse singular vectors. The approximation is obtained from thresholded subspace iterations that produce the singular vectors…

Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is a well studied research topic in many fields and applications from data mining to image processing. Data arising from these applications can be represented as a matrix where it is large and sparse. Most…

In many applications, such as sport tournaments or recommendation systems, we have at our disposal data consisting of pairwise comparisons between a set of $n$ items (or players). The objective is to use this data to infer the latent…

We study the problem of estimating low-rank matrices from linear measurements (a.k.a., matrix sensing) through nonconvex optimization. We propose an efficient stochastic variance reduced gradient descent algorithm to solve a nonconvex…

Sparse recovery can recover sparse signals from a set of underdetermined linear measurements. Motivated by the need to monitor large-scale networks from a limited number of measurements, this paper addresses the problem of recovering sparse…

We consider the problem of estimating the factors of a rank-$1$ matrix with i.i.d. Gaussian, rank-$1$ measurements that are nonlinearly transformed and corrupted by noise. Considering two prototypical choices for the nonlinearity, we study…

We consider the problem of recovering the rank of a set of $n$ items based on noisy pairwise comparisons. We assume the SST class as the family of generative models. Our analysis gave sharp information theoretic upper and lower bound for…

Motivated by applications in unsourced random access, this paper develops a novel scheme for the problem of compressed sensing of binary signals. In this problem, the goal is to design a sensing matrix $A$ and a recovery algorithm, such…

We present a theoretical and empirical analysis of the SyncRank algorithm for recovering a global ranking from noisy pairwise comparisons. By adopting a complex-valued data model where the true ranking is encoded in the phases of a…

Pairwise comparison matrices have received substantial attention in a variety of applications, especially in rank aggregation, the task of flattening items into a one-dimensional (and thus transitive) ranking. However, non-transitive…

In heterogeneous rank aggregation problems, users often exhibit various accuracy levels when comparing pairs of items. Thus a uniform querying strategy over users may not be optimal. To address this issue, we propose an elimination-based…

We consider the problem of finding the matching map between two sets of $d$-dimensional noisy feature-vectors. The distinctive feature of our setting is that we do not assume that all the vectors of the first set have their corresponding…

This paper introduces a novel approach for recovering sparse signals using sorted L1/L2 minimization. The proposed method assigns higher weights to indices with smaller absolute values and lower weights to larger values, effectively…
