Computationally intensive distributed and parallel computing is often bottlenecked by a small set of slow workers known as stragglers. In this paper, we utilize the emerging idea of "coded computation" to design a novel…
We discuss an approach for solving sparse or dense banded linear systems ${\bf A} {\bf x} = {\bf b}$ on a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) card. The matrix ${\bf A} \in {\mathbb{R}}^{N \times N}$ is possibly nonsymmetric and moderately large;…

Matrix factorization exploits the idea that, in complex high-dimensional data, the actual signal typically lies in lower-dimensional structures. These lower dimensional objects provide useful insight, with interpretability favored by sparse…
We study the Sparse Plus Low-Rank decomposition problem (SLR), which is the problem of decomposing a corrupted data matrix into a sparse matrix of perturbations plus a low-rank matrix containing the ground truth. SLR is a fundamental…

In the Sparse Linear Regression (SLR) problem, given a $d \times n$ matrix $M$ and a $d$-dimensional query $q$, the goal is to compute a $k$-sparse $n$-dimensional vector $\tau$ such that the error $||M \tau-q||$ is minimized. This problem…
The sheer sizes of modern datasets are forcing data-structure designers to consider seriously both parallel construction and compactness. To achieve those goals we need to design a parallel algorithm with good scalability and with low…
