Bilevel optimization, in which one optimization problem is nested inside another, underlies many machine learning applications with a hierarchical structure -- such as meta-learning and hyperparameter optimization. Such applications often…

We introduce a novel kernel-based framework for learning differential equations and their solution maps that is efficient in data requirements, in terms of solution examples and amount of measurements from each example, and computational…

We study differentially private (DP) algorithms for stochastic non-convex optimization. In this problem, the goal is to minimize the population loss over a $p$-dimensional space given $n$ i.i.d. samples drawn from a distribution. We improve…

In this work, we study a novel class of projection-based algorithms for linearly constrained problems (LCPs) which have a lot of applications in statistics, optimization, and machine learning. Conventional primal gradient-based methods for…

Hybrid optimization algorithms have gained popularity as it has become apparent there cannot be a universal optimization strategy which is globally more beneficial than any other. Despite their popularity, hybridization frameworks require…

Primate vision depends on recurrent processing for reliable perception. A growing body of literature also suggests that recurrent connections improve the learning efficiency and generalization of vision models on classic computer vision…

Discrete optimization is a central problem in artificial intelligence. The optimization of the aggregated cost of a network of cost functions arises in a variety of problems including (W)CSP, DCOP, as well as optimization in stochastic…

We explore a new class of end-to-end learnable models wherein data processing nodes (or network layers) are defined in terms of desired behavior rather than an explicit forward function. Specifically, the forward function is implicitly…

This tutorial paper surveys provably optimal alternatives to end-to-end backpropagation (E2EBP) -- the de facto standard for training deep architectures. Modular training refers to strictly local training without both the forward and the…

Mixed Precision Quantization (MPQ) has become an essential technique for optimizing neural network by determining the optimal bitwidth per layer. Existing MPQ methods, however, face a major hurdle: they require a computationally expensive…
