We present a method for efficient differentiable simulation of articulated bodies. This enables integration of articulated body dynamics into deep learning frameworks, and gradient-based optimization of neural networks that operate on…

Anderson acceleration is a well-established and simple technique for speeding up fixed-point computations with countless applications. Previous studies of Anderson acceleration in optimization have only been able to provide convergence…

The high-dimensional rank lasso (hdr lasso) model is an efficient approach to deal with high-dimensional data analysis. It was proposed as a tuning-free robust approach for the high-dimensional regression and was demonstrated to enjoy…

This paper presents an algorithm for the efficient approximation of the saddle-extremum persistence diagram of a scalar field. Vidal et al. introduced recently a fast algorithm for such an approximation (by interrupting a progressive…

In this paper, we develop a novel method for fast geodesic distance queries. The key idea is to embed the mesh into a high-dimensional space, such that the Euclidean distance in the high-dimensional space can induce the geodesic distance in…

In this work, in order to obtain higher-order schemes for solving forward backward stochastic differential equations, we adopt the high-order multi-step method in [W. Zhao, Y. Fu and T. Zhou, SIAM J. Sci. Comput., 36(4) (2014),…

The lasso model has been widely used for model selection in data mining, machine learning, and high-dimensional statistical analysis. However, with the ultrahigh-dimensional, large-scale data sets now collected in many real-world…

Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) is very useful in optimization problems with high-dimensional non-convex target functions, and hence constitutes an important component of several Machine Learning and Data Analytics methods. Recently there…

For solving pseudo-convex global optimization problems, we present a novel fully adaptive steepest descent method (or ASDM) without any hard-to-estimate parameters. For the step-size regulation in an $\varepsilon$-normalized direction, we…

With the fast development of deep learning, it has become common to learn big neural networks using massive training data. Asynchronous Stochastic Gradient Descent (ASGD) is widely adopted to fulfill this task for its efficiency, which is,…

We study the convergence of the Augmented Decomposition Algorithm (ADA) proposed in [32] for solving multi-block separable convex minimization problems subject to linear constraints. We show that the global convergence rate of the exact ADA…

In this paper, we introduce a method for adapting the step-sizes of temporal difference (TD) learning. The performance of TD methods often depends on well chosen step-sizes, yet few algorithms have been developed for setting the step-size…

In this paper, we introduce a multilevel algorithm for approximating variational formulations of symmetric saddle point systems. The algorithm is based on availability of families of stable finite element pairs and on the availability of…

In this work, we consider strongly convex strongly concave (SCSC) saddle point (SP) problems $\min_{x\in\mathbb{R}^{d_x}}\max_{y\in\mathbb{R}^{d_y}}f(x,y)$ where $f$ is $L$-smooth, $f(.,y)$ is $\mu$-strongly convex for every $y$, and…

When considering the minimization of a quadratic or strongly convex function, it is well known that first-order methods involving an inertial term weighted by a constant-in-time parameter are particularly efficient (see Polyak [32],…

We propose an alternating subgradient method with non-constant step sizes for solving convex-concave saddle-point problems associated with general convex-concave functions. We assume that the sequence of our step sizes is not summable but…

We study the problem of high-dimensional robust mean estimation in the presence of a constant fraction of adversarial outliers. A recent line of work has provided sophisticated polynomial-time algorithms for this problem with…

The sparse identification of nonlinear dynamics (SINDy) has been established as an effective method to learn interpretable models of dynamical systems from data. However, for high-dimensional slow-fast dynamical systems, the regression…

Unsupervised skill discovery in Reinforcement Learning aims to mimic humans' ability to autonomously discover diverse behaviors. However, existing methods are often unconstrained, making it difficult to find useful skills, especially in…

We study acceleration and preconditioning strategies for a class of Douglas-Rachford methods aiming at the solution of convex-concave saddle-point problems associated with Fenchel-Rockafellar duality. While the basic iteration converges…
