This paper is concerned with two improved variants of the Hutch++ algorithm for estimating the trace of a square matrix, implicitly given through matrix-vector products. Hutch++ combines randomized low-rank approximation in a first phase…

Matrix trace estimation is ubiquitous in machine learning applications and has traditionally relied on Hutchinson's method, which requires $O(\log(1/\delta)/\epsilon^2)$ matrix-vector product queries to achieve a $(1 \pm…

Hutchinson's estimator is a randomized algorithm that computes an $\epsilon$-approximation to the trace of any positive semidefinite matrix using $\mathcal{O}(1/\epsilon^2)$ matrix-vector products. An improvement of Hutchinson's estimator,…

Hutchinson estimators are widely employed in training divergence-based likelihoods for diffusion models to ensure optimal transport (OT) properties. However, this estimator often suffers from high variance and scalability concerns. To…

We study the problem of estimating the trace of a matrix $\mathbf{A}$ that can only be accessed through Kronecker-matrix-vector products. That is, for any Kronecker-structured vector $\mathrm{x} = \otimes_{i=1}^k \mathrm{x}_i$, we can…

We present a new trace estimator of the matrix whose explicit form is not given but its matrix multiplication to a vector is available. The form of the estimator is similar to the Hutchison stochastic trace estimator, but instead of the…

Hutchinson's method estimates the trace of a matrix function $f(D)$ stochastically using samples $\tau^Hf(D)\tau$, where the components of the random vectors $\tau$ obey an isotropic probability distribution. Estimating the trace of the…

A classical result of Johnson and Lindenstrauss states that a set of $n$ high dimensional data points can be projected down to $O(\log n/\epsilon^2)$ dimensions such that the square of their pairwise distances is preserved up to a small…

We study a dynamic version of the implicit trace estimation problem. Given access to an oracle for computing matrix-vector multiplications with a dynamically changing matrix A, our goal is to maintain an accurate approximation to A's trace…

The implicit trace estimation problem asks for an approximation of the trace of a square matrix, accessed via matrix-vector products (matvecs). This paper designs new randomized algorithms, XTrace and XNysTrace, for the trace estimation…

Computation of the trace of a matrix function plays an important role in many scientific computing applications, including applications in machine learning, computational physics (e.g., lattice quantum chromodynamics), network analysis and…

We present the analysis of two recently proposed noise reduction techniques, Hutch++ and XTrace, both based on inexact deflation. These methods were proven to have a better asymptotic convergence to the solution than the classical…

We examine the problem of estimating the trace of a matrix $A$ when given access to an oracle which computes $x^\dagger A x$ for an input vector $x$. We make use of the basis vectors from a set of mutually unbiased bases, widely studied in…

This article is concerned with Monte-Carlo methods for the estimation of the trace of an implicitly given matrix $A$ whose information is only available through matrix-vector products. Such a method approximates the trace by an average of…

Stochastic orbital techniques offer reduced computational scaling and memory requirements to describe ground and excited states at the cost of introducing controlled statistical errors. Such techniques often rely on two basic operations,…

Stochastic trace estimation is a well-established tool for approximating the trace of a large symmetric matrix $\boldsymbol{B}$. Several applications involve a matrix that depends continuously on a parameter $t \in [a,b]$, and require trace…

This article presents a randomized matrix-free method for approximating the trace of $f({\bf A})$, where ${\bf A}$ is a large symmetric matrix and $f$ is a function analytic in a closed interval containing the eigenvalues of ${\bf A}$. Our…

Given an implicit $n\times n$ matrix $A$ with oracle access $x^TA x$ for any $x\in \mathbb{R}^n$, we study the query complexity of randomized algorithms for estimating the trace of the matrix. This problem has many applications in quantum…

We consider the problem of minimizing the number of matrix-vector queries needed for accurate trace estimation in the dynamic setting where our underlying matrix is changing slowly, such as during an optimization process. Specifically, for…

Recently, Musco and Woodruff (FOCS, 2017) showed that given an $n \times n$ positive semidefinite (PSD) matrix $A$, it is possible to compute a $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate relative-error low-rank approximation to $A$ by querying…
