In this article a unified approach to iterative soft-thresholding algorithms for the solution of linear operator equations in infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces is presented. We formulate the algorithm in the framework of generalized…

Although various distributed machine learning schemes have been proposed recently for pure linear models and fully nonparametric models, little attention has been paid on distributed optimization for semi-paramemetric models with…

In this paper, we construct a parameter estimation framework for robust low-rank tensor regression based on a truncation method and Huber loss, specifically focusing on models with random noise having only finite second-order moments.…

Matrix factor model is drawing growing attention for simultaneous two-way dimension reduction of well-structured matrix-valued observations. This paper focuses on robust statistical inference for matrix factor model in the ``diverging…

As one of the triumphs and milestones of robust statistics, Huber regression plays an important role in robust inference and estimation. It has also been finding a great variety of applications in machine learning. In a parametric setup, it…

We propose a new approach for metric learning by framing it as learning a sparse combination of locally discriminative metrics that are inexpensive to generate from the training data. This flexible framework allows us to naturally derive…

Stochastic approximation techniques play an important role in solving many problems encountered in machine learning or adaptive signal processing. In these contexts, the statistics of the data are often unknown a priori or their direct…

We present a variational multi-label segmentation algorithm based on a robust Huber loss for both the data and the regularizer, minimized within a convex optimization framework. We introduce a novel constraint on the common areas, to bias…

Sparse optimization is a central problem in machine learning and computer vision. However, this problem is inherently NP-hard and thus difficult to solve in general. Combinatorial search methods find the global optimal solution but are…

Maintaining the pair similarity relationship among originally high-dimensional data into a low-dimensional binary space is a popular strategy to learn binary codes. One simiple and intutive method is to utilize two identical code matrices…

The problem of minimizing a continuously differentiable convex function over an intersection of closed convex sets is ubiquitous in applied mathematics. It is particularly interesting when it is easy to project onto each separate set, but…

A variety of large-scale machine learning problems can be cast as instances of constrained submodular maximization. Existing approaches for distributed submodular maximization have a critical drawback: The capacity - number of instances…

A good measure of similarity between data points is crucial to many tasks in machine learning. Similarity and metric learning methods learn such measures automatically from data, but they do not scale well respect to the dimensionality of…

Incorporating sparsity priors in learning tasks can give rise to simple, and interpretable models for complex high dimensional data. Sparse models have found widespread use in structure discovery, recovering data from corruptions, and a…

In this letter, we propose an algorithm for learning a sparse weighted graph by estimating its adjacency matrix under the assumption that the observed signals vary smoothly over the nodes of the graph. The proposed algorithm is based on the…

We develop an exact coordinate descent algorithm for high-dimensional regularized Huber regression. In contrast to composite gradient descent methods, our algorithm fully exploits the advantages of coordinate descent when the underlying…

In this paper, we study robust covariance estimation under the approximate factor model with observed factors. We propose a novel framework to first estimate the initial joint covariance matrix of the observed data and the factors, and then…

In order to improve the performance of least mean square (LMS)-based adaptive filtering for identifying block-sparse systems, a new adaptive algorithm called block-sparse LMS (BS-LMS) is proposed in this paper. The basis of the proposed…

We propose a penalized likelihood framework for estimating multiple precision matrices from different classes. Most existing methods either incorporate no information on relationships between the precision matrices, or require this…

In this paper we consider algorithm unfolding for the Multiple Measurement Vector (MMV) problem in the case where only few training samples are available. Algorithm unfolding has been shown to empirically speed-up in a data-driven way the…
