This work focuses on accelerating the multiplication of a dense random matrix with a (fixed) sparse matrix, which is frequently used in sketching algorithms. We develop a novel scheme that takes advantage of blocking and recomputation…

As the performance gains from accelerating quantized matrix multiplication plateau, the softmax operation becomes the critical bottleneck in Transformer inference. This bottleneck stems from two hardware limitations: (1) limited data…

In this paper, we propose new deterministic and Monte Carlo interpolation algorithms for sparse multivariate polynomials represented by straight-line programs. Let $f$ be an $n$-variate polynomial given by a straight-line program, which has…

The matrices used in many computational settings are naturally sparse, holding a small percentage of nonzero elements. Storing such matrices in specialized sparse formats enables algorithms that avoid wasting computation on zeros,…

The works presented in this habilitation concern the algorithmics of polynomials. This is a central topic in computer algebra, with numerous applications both within and outside the field - cryptography, error-correcting codes, etc. For…

One of the biggest open problems in computational algebra is the design of efficient algorithms for Gr{\"o}bner basis computations that take into account the sparsity of the input polynomials. We can perform such computations in the case of…

Recently there has been much interest in "sparsifying" sums of rank one matrices: modifying the coefficients such that only a few are nonzero, while approximately preserving the matrix that results from the sum. Results of this sort have…

The paper proposes a method for constructing a sparse estimator for the inverse covariance (concentration) matrix in high-dimensional settings. The estimator uses a penalized normal likelihood approach and forces sparsity by using a…

We consider two problems that arise in machine learning applications: the problem of recovering a planted sparse vector in a random linear subspace and the problem of decomposing a random low-rank overcomplete 3-tensor. For both problems,…

Square matrices appear in many machine learning problems and models. Optimization over a large square matrix is expensive in memory and in time. Therefore an economic approximation is needed. Conventional approximation approaches factorize…

We consider the problem of projecting a vector onto the so-called k-capped simplex, which is a hyper-cube cut by a hyperplane. For an n-dimensional input vector with bounded elements, we found that a simple algorithm based on Newton's…

In a large-scale and distributed matrix multiplication problem $C=A^{\intercal}B$, where $C\in\mathbb{R}^{r\times t}$, the coded computation plays an important role to effectively deal with "stragglers" (distributed computations that may…

Fast matrix multiplication algorithms may be useful, provided that their running time is good in practice. Particularly, the leading coefficient of their arithmetic complexity needs to be small. Many sub-cubic algorithms have large leading…

This paper considers stochastic convex optimization problems with two sets of constraints: (a) deterministic constraints on the domain of the optimization variable, which are difficult to project onto; and (b) deterministic or stochastic…

In this paper, we provide a sub-gradient based algorithm to solve general constrained convex optimization without taking projections onto the domain set. The well studied Frank-Wolfe type algorithms also avoid projections. However, they are…

A polynomial matrix inequality is a formula asserting that a polynomial matrix is positive semidefinite. Polynomial matrix optimization concerns minimizing the smallest eigenvalue of a symmetric polynomial matrix subject to a tuple of…

This paper explores a key question in numerical linear algebra: how can we compute projectors onto the deflating subspaces of a regular matrix pencil $(A,B)$, in particular without using matrix inversion or defaulting to an expensive Schur…

We consider the problem of multiplying sparse matrices (over a semiring) where the number of non-zero entries is larger than main memory. In the classical paper of Hong and Kung (STOC '81) it was shown that to compute a product of dense $U…

We consider the problem of interpolating a sparse multivariate polynomial over a finite field, represented with a black box. Building on the algorithm of Ben-Or and Tiwari for interpolating polynomials over rings with characteristic zero,…

We describe an algorithm that, given any full-rank matrix A having fewer rows than columns, can rapidly compute the orthogonal projection of any vector onto the null space of A, as well as the orthogonal projection onto the row space of A,…
