The problem of estimating ARMA models is computationally interesting due to the nonconcavity of the log-likelihood function. Recent results were based on the convex minimization. Joint model selection using penalization by a convex norm,…

Transfer Learning aims to optimally aggregate samples from a target distribution, with related samples from a so-called source distribution to improve target risk. Multiple procedures have been proposed over the last two decades to address…

Penalized regression is an attractive framework for variable selection problems. Often, variables possess a grouping structure, and the relevant selection problem is that of selecting groups, not individual variables. The group lasso has…

As the data size in Machine Learning fields grows exponentially, it is inevitable to accelerate the computation by utilizing the ever-growing large number of available cores provided by high-performance computing hardware. However, existing…

A common assumption when sampling $p$-dimensional observations from $K$ distinct group is the equality of the covariance matrices. In this paper, we propose two penalized $M$-estimation approaches for the estimation of the covariance or…

Clustering, like covariate selection for classification, is an important step to compress and interpret the data. However, clustering of covariates is often performed independently of the classification step, which can lead to undesirable…

Partial least squares (PLS) regression combines dimensionality reduction and prediction using a latent variable model. Since partial least squares regression (PLS-R) does not require matrix inversion or diagonalization, it can be applied to…

The conditional gradient method (CGM) is widely used in large-scale sparse convex optimization, having a low per iteration computational cost for structured sparse regularizers and a greedy approach to collecting nonzeros. We explore the…

Given a {features, target} dataset, we introduce an incremental algorithm that constructs an aggregate regressor, using an ensemble of neural networks. It is well known that ensemble methods suffer from the multicollinearity issue, which is…

Augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) has been popularly used for solving constrained optimization problems. Practically, subproblems for updating primal variables in the framework of ALM usually can only be solved inexactly. The convergence…

The existing machine learning algorithms for minimizing the convex function over a closed convex set suffer from slow convergence because their learning rates must be determined before running them. This paper proposes two machine learning…

A significant hurdle for analyzing large sample data is the lack of effective statistical computing and inference methods. An emerging powerful approach for analyzing large sample data is subsampling, by which one takes a random subsample…

We consider the problem of adaptation to the margin and to complexity in binary classification. We suggest an exponential weighting aggregation scheme. We use this aggregation procedure to construct classifiers which adapt automatically to…

Data augmentation is becoming essential for improving regression performance in critical applications including manufacturing, climate prediction, and finance. Existing techniques for data augmentation largely focus on classification tasks…

Hybrid ensemble, an essential branch of ensembles, has flourished in the regression field, with studies confirming diversity's importance. However, previous ensembles consider diversity in the sub-model training stage, with limited…

This paper presents a new method for spatially adaptive local (constant) likelihood estimation which applies to a broad class of nonparametric models, including the Gaussian, Poisson and binary response models. The main idea of the method…

Code metrics collected at the method level are often aggregated using summation to capture system properties at higher levels (e.g., file- or package-level). Since defect data is often available at these higher levels, this aggregation…

Across various domains, the growing advocacy for open science and open-source machine learning has made an increasing number of models publicly available. These models allow practitioners to integrate them into their own contexts, reducing…

In this paper, we study adaptive online convex optimization, and aim to design a universal algorithm that achieves optimal regret bounds for multiple common types of loss functions. Existing universal methods are limited in the sense that…

Rule learning approaches for knowledge graph completion are efficient, interpretable and competitive to purely neural models. The rule aggregation problem is concerned with finding one plausibility score for a candidate fact which was…
