This paper focuses on regularisation methods using models up to the third order to search for up to second-order critical points of a finite-sum minimisation problem. The variant presented belongs to the framework of [3]: it employs random…

Stochastic approximation is a foundation for many algorithms found in machine learning and optimization. It is in general slow to converge: the mean square error vanishes as $O(n^{-1})$. A deterministic counterpart known as quasi-stochastic…

In coherent diffraction imaging (CDI) experiments, the intensity of the scattered wave impinging on an object is measured on an array of detectors. This signal can be interpreted as the square of the modulus of the Fourier transform of the…

We consider the problem of center-based clustering in low-dimensional Euclidean spaces under the perturbation stability assumption. An instance is $\alpha$-stable if the underlying optimal clustering continues to remain optimal even when…

This work concerns elementwise-transformations of spiked matrices: $Y_n = n^{-1/2} f( \sqrt{n} X_n + Z_n)$. Here, $f$ is a function applied elementwise, $X_n$ is a low-rank signal matrix, and $Z_n$ is white noise. We find that principal…

Many modern applications involve the acquisition of noisy modulo samples of a function $f$, with the goal being to recover estimates of the original samples of $f$. For a Lipschitz function $f:[0,1]^d \to \mathbb{R}$, suppose we are given…

We consider the problem of high-dimensional heavy-tailed statistical estimation in the streaming setting, which is much harder than the traditional batch setting due to memory constraints. We cast this problem as stochastic convex…

This paper demonstrates a novel method to extract photomultiplier tube (PMT) calibration timing constants in large liquid scintillation detectors from physics data using the machinery of unsupervised deep learning. The approach uses a…

Estimating the number of spikes in a spiked model is an important problem in many areas such as signal processing. Most of the classical approaches assume a large sample size $n$ whereas the dimension $p$ of the observations is kept small.…

In this paper, we derive a new dimension-free non-asymptotic upper bound for the quadratic $k$-means excess risk related to the quantization of an i.i.d sample in a separable Hilbert space. We improve the bound of order $\mathcal{O} \bigl(…

Posterior sampling with the spike-and-slab prior [MB88], a popular multimodal distribution used to model uncertainty in variable selection, is considered the theoretical gold standard method for Bayesian sparse linear regression [CPS09,…

We prove stability estimates for the problem of recovering the nonlinearity from scattering data. We focus our attention on nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations of the form \[ (i\partial_t+\Delta)u = a(x)|u|^p u \] in three space dimensions,…

Spiking neural network (SNN) has been attached to great importance due to the properties of high biological plausibility and low energy consumption on neuromorphic hardware. As an efficient method to obtain deep SNN, the conversion method…

The next-to-leading order (NLO) Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation describing the high-energy evolution of the scattering between a dilute projectile and a dense target suffers from instabilities unless it is supplemented by a proper…

We study the parameter estimation method for linear regression models with possibly skewed stable distributed errors. Our estimation procedure consists of two stages: first, for the regression coefficients, the Cauchy quasi-maximum…

We study the fundamental problem of estimating the mean of a $d$-dimensional distribution with covariance $\Sigma \preccurlyeq \sigma^2 I_d$ given $n$ samples. When $d = 1$, \cite{catoni} showed an estimator with error $(1+o(1)) \cdot…

We consider semidefinite programs (SDPs) of size n with equality constraints. In order to overcome scalability issues, Burer and Monteiro proposed a factorized approach based on optimizing over a matrix Y of size $n$ by $k$ such that $X =…

We propose a novel parametric dictionary learning algorithm for line spectral estimation, applicable in both single measurement vector (SMV) and multiple measurement vectors (MMV) scenarios. This algorithm, termed cubic Newtonized K-SVD…

In complex physical process characterization, such as the measurement of the regression rate for solid hybrid rocket fuels, where both the observation data and the model used have uncertainties originating from multiple sources, combining…

Large loss spikes in stochastic gradient descent are studied through a rigorous large-deviations analysis for a shallow, fully connected network in the NTK scaling. In contrast to full-batch gradient descent, the catapult phase is shown to…
