Gradient Descent for Low-Rank Functions

no code implementations16 Jun 2022 Romain Cosson, Ali Jadbabaie, Anuran Makur, Amirhossein Reisizadeh, Devavrat Shah

When $r \ll p$, these complexities are smaller than the known complexities of $\mathcal{O}(p \log(1/\epsilon))$ and $\mathcal{O}(p/\epsilon^2)$ of {\gd} in the strongly convex and non-convex settings, respectively.

Functional Linear Regression of Cumulative Distribution Functions

1 code implementation28 May 2022 Qian Zhang, Anuran Makur, Kamyar Azizzadenesheli

In particular, given $n$ samples with $d$ basis functions, we show estimation error upper bounds of $\widetilde O(\sqrt{d/n})$ for fixed design, random design, and adversarial context cases.

Federated Optimization of Smooth Loss Functions

no code implementations6 Jan 2022 Ali Jadbabaie, Anuran Makur, Devavrat Shah

Under some assumptions on the loss function, e. g., strong convexity in parameter, $\eta$-H\"older smoothness in data, etc., we prove that the federated oracle complexity of FedLRGD scales like $\phi m(p/\epsilon)^{\Theta(d/\eta)}$ and that of FedAve scales like $\phi m(p/\epsilon)^{3/4}$ (neglecting sub-dominant factors), where $\phi\gg 1$ is a "communication-to-computation ratio," $p$ is the parameter dimension, and $d$ is the data dimension.

Inference in Opinion Dynamics under Social Pressure

no code implementations22 Apr 2021 Ali Jadbabaie, Anuran Makur, Elchanan Mossel, Rabih Salhab

At each time step, agents broadcast their declared opinions on a social network, which are governed by the agents' inherent opinions and social pressure.

Estimation of Skill Distribution from a Tournament

no code implementations NeurIPS 2020 Ali Jadbabaie, Anuran Makur, Devavrat Shah

In this paper, we study the problem of learning the skill distribution of a population of agents from observations of pairwise games in a tournament.

Gradient-Based Empirical Risk Minimization using Local Polynomial Regression

no code implementations4 Nov 2020 Ali Jadbabaie, Anuran Makur, Devavrat Shah

In contrast, we demonstrate that when the loss function is smooth in the data, we can learn the oracle at every iteration and beat the oracle complexities of both GD and SGD in important regimes.

On Universal Features for High-Dimensional Learning and Inference

no code implementations20 Nov 2019 Shao-Lun Huang, Anuran Makur, Gregory W. Wornell, Lizhong Zheng

We consider the problem of identifying universal low-dimensional features from high-dimensional data for inference tasks in settings involving learning.

Probabilistic Clustering Using Maximal Matrix Norm Couplings

no code implementations10 Oct 2018 David Qiu, Anuran Makur, Lizhong Zheng

In this paper, we present a local information theoretic approach to explicitly learn probabilistic clustering of a discrete random variable.
