Nonnegative matrix factorization is the following problem: given a nonnegative input matrix $V$ and a factorization rank $K$, compute two nonnegative matrices, $W$ with $K$ columns and $H$ with $K$ rows, such that $WH$ approximates $V$ as…

In this experimental work, we present a general framework based on the Bregman log determinant divergence for preconditioning Hermitian positive definite linear systems. We explore this divergence as a measure of discrepancy between a…

Various methods in statistical learning build on kernels considered in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. In applications, the kernel is often selected based on characteristics of the problem and the data. This kernel is then employed to…

The transcriptomics of cancer tumors are characterized with tens of thousands of gene expression features. Patient prognosis or tumor stage can be assessed by machine learning techniques like supervised classification tasks given a gene…

Tensor Network (TN) Kernel Machines speed up model learning by representing parameters as low-rank TNs, reducing computation and memory use. However, most TN-based Kernel methods are deterministic and ignore parameter uncertainty. Further,…

We propose a continuous optimization algorithm for the Column Subset Selection Problem (CSSP) and Nystr\"om approximation. The CSSP and Nystr\"om method construct low-rank approximations of matrices based on a predetermined subset of…

Computing the dominant eigenvalue is important in nuclear systems as it determines the stability of the system (i.e. whether the system is sub or supercritical). Recently, the work of Kusch, Whewell, McClarren and Frank \cite{KWMF} showed…

The convergence of the conjugate gradient method for solving large-scale and sparse linear equation systems depends on the spectral properties of the system matrix, which can be improved by preconditioning. In this paper, we develop a…

This article studies sufficient conditions on families of approximating kernels which provide $N$--term approximation errors from an associated nonlinear approximation space which match the best known orders of $N$--term wavelet expansion.…

In this paper we consider the Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) problem: given an (elementwise) nonnegative matrix $V \in \R_+^{m\times n}$ find, for assigned $k$, nonnegative matrices $W\in\R_+^{m\times k}$ and $H\in\R_+^{k\times n}$…

Matrix factorization methods are important tools in data mining and analysis. They can be used for many tasks, ranging from dimensionality reduction to visualization. In this paper we concentrate on the use of matrix factorizations for…

The propositional planning problem is a notoriously difficult computational problem. Downey et al. (1999) initiated the parameterized analysis of planning (with plan length as the parameter) and B\"ackstr\"om et al. (2012) picked up this…

Some response surface functions in complex engineering systems are usually highly nonlinear, unformed, and expensive-to-evaluate. To tackle this challenge, Bayesian optimization, which conducts sequential design via a posterior distribution…

We present a new paradigm for speeding up randomized computations of several frequently used functions in machine learning. In particular, our paradigm can be applied for improving computations of kernels based on random embeddings. Above…

We develop a fast solver for the spectral element method (SEM) applied to the two-sided fractional diffusion equation on uniform, geometric and graded meshes. By approximating the singular kernel with a degenerate kernel, we construct a…

Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is one of the most popular decomposition techniques for multivariate data. NMF is a core method for many machine-learning related computational problems, such as data compression, feature extraction,…

Through one decade's development, the kernel-based regularization method (KRM) has become a complement to the classical maximum likelihood/prediction error method and an emerging new system identification paradigm. One recent example is its…

It is often the case that the computed optimal solution of an optimization problem cannot be implemented directly, irrespective of data accuracy, due to either (i) technological limitations (such as physical tolerances of machines or…

This paper develops a scalable new algorithm, called NysADMM, to minimize a smooth convex loss function with a convex regularizer. NysADMM accelerates the inexact Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) by constructing a…

We develop a new collaborative filtering (CF) method that combines both previously known users' preferences, i.e. standard CF, as well as product/user attributes, i.e. classical function approximation, to predict a given user's interest in…
