We propose a robust and scalable procedure for general optimization and inference problems on manifolds leveraging the classical idea of `median-of-means' estimation. This is motivated by ubiquitous examples and applications in modern data…

Recently, there has been a growing need in analyzing data on manifolds owing to their important role in diverse fields of science and engineering. In the literature of manifold-valued data analysis up till now, however, only a few works…

This paper is a short summary of our recent work on the medians and means of probability measures in Riemannian manifolds. Firstly, the existence and uniqueness results of local medians are given. In order to compute medians in practical…

We address the problem of computing Riemannian normal coordinates on the real, compact Stiefel manifold of orthogonal frames. The Riemannian normal coordinates are based on the so-called Riemannian exponential and the Riemannian logarithm…

We consider a class of nonsmooth optimization problems over the Stiefel manifold, in which the objective function is weakly convex in the ambient Euclidean space. Such problems are ubiquitous in engineering applications but still largely…

A Stiefel manifold of the compact type is often encountered in many fields of Engineering including, signal and image processing, machine learning, numerical optimization and others. The Stiefel manifold is a Riemannian homogeneous space…

In this paper, we define the geometric median of a probability measure on a Riemannian manifold, give its characterization and a natural condition to ensure its uniqueness. In order to calculate the median in practical cases, we also…

Various tasks in scientific computing can be modeled as an optimization problem on the indefinite Stiefel manifold. We address this using the Riemannian approach, which basically consists of equipping the feasible set with a Riemannian…

We develop a rigorous theoretical framework for principal manifold estimation that recovers a latent low-dimensional manifold from a point cloud observed in a high-dimensional ambient space. Our framework accommodates manifolds with…

We address the estimation of the scatter matrix of a scale mixture of Gaussian stationary autoregressive vectors. This is equivalent to consider the estimation of a structured scatter matrix of a Spherically Invariant Random Vector (SIRV)…

Robust estimators, like the median of a point set, are important for data analysis in the presence of outliers. We study robust estimators for locationally uncertain points with discrete distributions. That is, each point in a data set has…

We provide an explicit formula for the Levi-Civita connection and Riemannian Hessian for a Riemannian manifold that is a quotient of a manifold embedded in an inner product space with a non-constant metric function. Together with a…

In this paper, we propose an efficient method to estimate the Weingarten map for point cloud data sampled from manifold embedded in Euclidean space. A statistical model is established to analyze the asymptotic property of the estimator. In…

Optimization over the Stiefel manifold is a fundamental computational problem in many scientific and engineering applications. Despite considerable research effort, high-dimensional optimization problems over the Stiefel manifold remain…

A Riemannian stochastic representation of model uncertainties in molecular dynamics is proposed. The approach relies on a reduced-order model, the projection basis of which is randomized on a subset of the Stiefel manifold characterized by…

We study optimization over Riemannian embedded submanifolds, where the objective function is relatively smooth in the ambient Euclidean space. Such problems have broad applications but are still largely unexplored. We introduce two…

Recent advances suggest that encoding images through Symmetric Positive Definite (SPD) matrices and then interpreting such matrices as points on Riemannian manifolds can lead to increased classification performance. Taking into account…
