Let $\mathbf{X} = (X_i)_{1\leq i \leq n}$ be an i.i.d. sample of square-integrable variables in $\mathbb{R}^d$, \GB{with common expectation $\mu$ and covariance matrix $\Sigma$, both unknown.} We consider the problem of testing if $\mu$ is…

Decentralized state estimation in a communication-constrained sensor network is considered. The exchanged estimates are dimension-reduced to reduce the communication load using a linear mapping to a lower-dimensional space. The mean squared…

We consider the problem of estimating change in the dependency structure between two $p$-dimensional Ising models, based on respectively $n_1$ and $n_2$ samples drawn from the models. The change is assumed to be structured, e.g., sparse,…

Dimension reduction is a key algorithmic tool with many applications including nearest-neighbor search, compressed sensing and linear algebra in the streaming model. In this work we obtain a {\em sparse} version of the fundamental tool in…

In this paper, we study high-dimensional estimation from truncated samples. We focus on two fundamental and classical problems: (i) inference of sparse Gaussian graphical models and (ii) support recovery of sparse linear models. (i) For…

Unsupervised domain adaptation leverages rich information from a labeled source domain to model an unlabeled target domain. Existing methods attempt to align the cross-domain distributions. However, the statistical representations of the…

We study the problem of estimating a set of $d$ linear queries with respect to some unknown distribution $\mathbf{p}$ over a domain $\mathcal{J}=[J]$ based on a sensitive data set of $n$ individuals under the constraint of local…

We consider the task of certifying that a random $d$-dimensional subspace $X$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is well-spread - every vector $x \in X$ satisfies $c\sqrt{n} \|x\|_2 \leq \|x\|_1 \leq \sqrt{n}\|x\|_2$. In a seminal work, Barak et. al. showed…

Diffusion models generate samples by estimating the score function of the target distribution at various noise levels. The model is trained using samples drawn from the target distribution by progressively adding noise. Previous sample…

We prove an L2 recovery bound for a family of sparse estimators defined as minimizers of some empirical loss functions -- which include hinge loss and logistic loss. More precisely, we achieve an upper-bound for coefficients estimation…

In this paper, we consider the problem of noiseless non-adaptive probabilistic group testing, in which the goal is high-probability recovery of the defective set. We show that in the case of $n$ items among which $k$ are defective, the…

Adaptive sampling results in dramatic improvements in the recovery of sparse signals in white Gaussian noise. A sequential adaptive sampling-and-refinement procedure called Distilled Sensing (DS) is proposed and analyzed. DS is a form of…

We consider linear regression in the high-dimensional regime where the number of observations $n$ is smaller than the number of parameters $p$. A very successful approach in this setting uses $\ell_1$-penalized least squares (a.k.a. the…

This paper investigates the effect of the design matrix on the ability (or inability) to estimate a sparse parameter in linear regression. More specifically, we characterize the optimal rate of estimation when the smallest singular value of…

We study beyond worst-case dimensionality reduction for $s$-sparse vectors. Our work is divided into two parts, each focusing on a different facet of beyond worst-case analysis: We first consider average-case guarantees. A folklore upper…

Recent results in quantization theory show that the mean-squared expected distortion can reach a rate of convergence of $\mathcal{O}(1/n)$, where $n$ is the sample size [see, e.g., IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory 60 (2014) 7279-7292 or Electron.…

Given a data matrix $X \in R^{n\times d}$ and a response vector $y \in R^{n}$, suppose $n>d$, it costs $O(n d^2)$ time and $O(n d)$ space to solve the least squares regression (LSR) problem. When $n$ and $d$ are both large, exactly solving…

Diffusion models generate samples by iteratively querying learned score estimates. A rapidly growing literature focuses on accelerating sampling by minimizing the number of score evaluations, yet the information-theoretic limits of such…

The problem of least squares regression of a $d$-dimensional unknown parameter is considered. A stochastic gradient descent based algorithm with weighted iterate-averaging that uses a single pass over the data is studied and its convergence…

Subspace clustering refers to the problem of clustering unlabeled high-dimensional data points into a union of low-dimensional linear subspaces, whose number, orientations, and dimensions are all unknown. In practice one may have access to…
