Orbit recovery is a central problem in both mathematics and applied sciences, with important applications to structural biology. This paper focuses on recovering generic orbits of functions on ${\mathbb R}^{n}$ and the sphere $S^{n-1}$…
We study the recovery of an unknown three-dimensional band-limited signal from multiple noisy observations that are randomly rotated by latent elements of SO(3), where the rotations are drawn from an unknown, non-uniform distribution.…
We study the orbit recovery problem under the rigid-motion group SE(n), where the objective is to reconstruct an unknown signal from multiple noisy observations subjected to unknown rotations and translations. This problem is fundamental in…
We study a class of orbit recovery problems in which we observe independent copies of an unknown element of $\mathbb{R}^p$, each linearly acted upon by a random element of some group (such as $\mathbb{Z}/p$ or $\mathrm{SO}(3)$) and then…
Reliable watermarking of panoramic imagery is fundamentally challenged by arbitrary 3D rotations. As panoramas are defined on the sphere, they naturally transform under the action of $SO(3)$, rendering conventional planar representations…
Smoothed analysis is a powerful paradigm in overcoming worst-case intractability in unsupervised learning and high-dimensional data analysis. While polynomial time smoothed analysis guarantees have been obtained for worst-case intractable…
Orbit recovery problems are a class of problems that often arise in practice and various forms. In these problems, we aim to estimate an unknown function after being distorted by a group action and observed via a known operator. Typically,…
The synchronization problem over the special orthogonal group $SO(d)$ consists of estimating a set of unknown rotations $R_1,R_2,...,R_n$ from noisy measurements of a subset of their pairwise ratios $R_{i}^{-1}R_{j}$. The problem has found…
Accurate rotation estimation is at the heart of robot perception tasks such as visual odometry and object pose estimation. Deep neural networks have provided a new way to perform these tasks, and the choice of rotation representation is an…
The multi-reference alignment (MRA) problem involves reconstructing a signal from multiple noisy observations, each transformed by a random group element. In this paper, we focus on the group \(\mathrm{SO}(2)\) of in-plane rotations and…
The matrix recovery (completion) problem, a central problem in data science and theoretical computer science, is to recover a matrix $A$ from a relatively small sample of entries. While such a task is impossible in general, it has been…
Consider an unknown smooth function $f: [0,1]^d \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, and say we are given $n$ noisy mod 1 samples of $f$, i.e., $y_i = (f(x_i) + \eta_i)\mod 1$, for $x_i \in [0,1]^d$, where $\eta_i$ denotes the noise. Given the samples…
In traditional models of supervised learning, the goal of a learner -- given examples from an arbitrary joint distribution on $\mathbb{R}^d \times \{\pm 1\}$ -- is to output a hypothesis that is competitive (to within $\epsilon$) of the…
We present a general approach to rounding semidefinite programming relaxations obtained by the Sum-of-Squares method (Lasserre hierarchy). Our approach is based on using the connection between these relaxations and the Sum-of-Squares proof…
Self-organizing systems demonstrate how simple local rules can generate complex stochastic patterns. Many natural systems rely on such dynamics, making self-organization central to understanding natural complexity. A fundamental challenge…
A generalisation of Takens' delay-coordinate embedding theorem to stochastic systems, the Stochastic Embedding Sufficiency Theorem, is an inverse methodology enabling non-parametric recovery of both drift and diffusion fields from scalar…
Over short time intervals planetary ephemerides have been traditionally represented in analytical form as finite sums of periodic terms or sums of Poisson terms that are periodic terms with polynomial amplitudes. Nevertheless, this…
Estimating unknown rotations from noisy measurements is an important step in SfM and other 3D vision tasks. Typically, local optimization methods susceptible to returning suboptimal local minima are used to solve the rotation averaging…
A growing lesson from neural network optimization is that optimizer design should respect how the model is parametrized. Scale-invariant methods become important because their normalized layerwise updates can not only support hyperparameter…
Recovering probability measures from moments is a central theme in statistics and optimization. In particular, we focus on the recovery of measures from moments and pseudo-moments, which may come from solving the moment-SOS hierarchy in one…
