Bispectrum Unbiasing for Dilation-Invariant Multi-reference Alignment

no code implementations22 Feb 2024 Liping Yin, Anna Little, Matthew Hirn

Motivated by modern data applications such as cryo-electron microscopy, the goal of classic multi-reference alignment (MRA) is to recover an unknown signal $f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ from many observations that have been randomly translated and corrupted by additive noise.

Fermat Distances: Metric Approximation, Spectral Convergence, and Clustering Algorithms

no code implementations7 Jul 2023 Nicolás García Trillos, Anna Little, Daniel Mckenzie, James M. Murphy

In particular, we show the discrete eigenvalues and eigenvectors converge to their continuum analogues at a dimension-dependent rate, which allows us to interpret the efficacy of discrete spectral clustering using Fermat distances in terms of the resulting continuum limit.

Linear Distance Metric Learning with Noisy Labels

no code implementations5 Jun 2023 Meysam Alishahi, Anna Little, Jeff M. Phillips

In linear distance metric learning, we are given data in one Euclidean metric space and the goal is to find an appropriate linear map to another Euclidean metric space which respects certain distance conditions as much as possible.

Unbiasing Procedures for Scale-invariant Multi-reference Alignment

no code implementations2 Jul 2021 Matthew Hirn, Anna Little

We propose a method that recovers the power spectrum of the hidden signal by applying a data-driven, nonlinear unbiasing procedure, and thus the hidden signal is obtained up to an unknown phase.

no code implementations17 Dec 2020 Anna Little, Daniel Mckenzie, James Murphy

New geometric and computational analyses of power-weighted shortest-path distances (PWSPDs) are presented.

Wavelet invariants for statistically robust multi-reference alignment

1 code implementation24 Sep 2019 Matthew Hirn, Anna Little

After unbiasing the representation to remove the effects of the additive noise and random dilations, we recover an approximation of the power spectrum by solving a convex optimization problem, and thus reduce to a phase retrieval problem.

Path-Based Spectral Clustering: Guarantees, Robustness to Outliers, and Fast Algorithms

1 code implementation17 Dec 2017 Anna Little, Mauro Maggioni, James M. Murphy

We consider the problem of clustering with the longest-leg path distance (LLPD) metric, which is informative for elongated and irregularly shaped clusters.
