Conventional matrix completion methods approximate the missing values by assuming the matrix to be low-rank, which leads to a linear approximation of missing values. It has been shown that enhanced performance could be attained by using…
We propose a new notion of `non-linearity' of a network layer with respect to an input batch that is based on its proximity to a linear system, which is reflected in the non-negative rank of the activation matrix. We measure this…
The direct method is one of the most important algorithms for solving linear systems of equations, with LU decomposition comprising a significant portion of its computation time. This study explores strategies to accelerate complex LU…
Non-negative signals form an important class of sparse signals. Many algorithms have already beenproposed to recover such non-negative representations, where greedy and convex relaxed algorithms are among the most popular methods. One fast…
Matrix and tensor completion aim to recover a low-rank matrix / tensor from limited observations and have been commonly used in applications such as recommender systems and multi-relational data mining. A state-of-the-art matrix completion…
Recent studies have shown that the choice of activation function can significantly affect the performance of deep learning networks. However, the benefits of novel activation functions have been inconsistent and task dependent, and…
A general procedure for introducing parametric, learned, nonlinearity into activation functions is found to enhance the accuracy of representative neural networks without requiring significant additional computational resources. Examples…
When optimizing a nonlinear objective, one can employ a neural network as a surrogate for the nonlinear function. However, the resulting optimization model can be time-consuming to solve globally with exact methods. As a result, local…
Tensor decompositions, which represent an $N$-order tensor using approximately $N$ factors of much smaller dimensions, can significantly reduce the number of parameters. This is particularly beneficial for high-order tensors, as the number…
Matrix representations are a powerful tool for designing efficient algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems such as matching, and linear matroid intersection and parity. In this paper, we initiate the study of matrix…
Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is a recently developed technique for finding parts-based, linear representations of non-negative data. Although it has successfully been applied in several applications, it does not always result in…

We propose Nesterov acceleration with Operator Decomposition (NOD), which extends Nesterov's accelerated gradient descent (NAG) from smooth strongly convex optimization to the broader setting of strongly monotone, Lipschitz operators. The…
Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) asks to decompose a (entry-wise) non-negative matrix into the product of two smaller-sized nonnegative matrices, which has been shown intractable in general. In order to overcome this issue, the…
