Double-Loop Unadjusted Langevin Algorithm

no code implementations ICML 2020 Paul Rolland, Armin Eftekhari, Ali Kavis, Volkan Cevher

A well-known first-order method for sampling from log-concave probability distributions is the Unadjusted Langevin Algorithm (ULA).

Subquadratic Overparameterization for Shallow Neural Networks

no code implementations NeurIPS 2021 ChaeHwan Song, Ali Ramezani-Kebrya, Thomas Pethick, Armin Eftekhari, Volkan Cevher

Overparameterization refers to the important phenomenon where the width of a neural network is chosen such that learning algorithms can provably attain zero loss in nonconvex training.

Nonlinear matrix recovery using optimization on the Grassmann manifold

1 code implementation13 Sep 2021 Florentin Goyens, Coralia Cartis, Armin Eftekhari

We investigate the problem of recovering a partially observed high-rank matrix whose columns obey a nonlinear structure such as a union of subspaces, an algebraic variety or grouped in clusters.

Principal Component Hierarchy for Sparse Quadratic Programs

1 code implementation25 May 2021 Robbie Vreugdenhil, Viet Anh Nguyen, Armin Eftekhari, Peyman Mohajerin Esfahani

We propose a novel approximation hierarchy for cardinality-constrained, convex quadratic programs that exploits the rank-dominating eigenvectors of the quadratic matrix.

The Nonconvex Geometry of Linear Inverse Problems

no code implementations7 Jan 2021 Armin Eftekhari, Peyman Mohajerin Esfahani

The gauge function, closely related to the atomic norm, measures the complexity of a statistical model, and has found broad applications in machine learning and statistical signal processing.

Limitations of Implicit Bias in Matrix Sensing: Initialization Rank Matters

no code implementations27 Aug 2020 Armin Eftekhari, Konstantinos Zygalakis

In matrix sensing, we first numerically identify the sensitivity to the initialization rank as a new limitation of the implicit bias of gradient flow.

Nearly Minimal Over-Parametrization of Shallow Neural Networks

no code implementations9 Oct 2019 Armin Eftekhari, ChaeHwan Song, Volkan Cevher

A recent line of work has shown that an overparametrized neural network can perfectly fit the training data, an otherwise often intractable nonconvex optimization problem.

Fast and Provable ADMM for Learning with Generative Priors

no code implementations NeurIPS 2019 Fabian Latorre Gómez, Armin Eftekhari, Volkan Cevher

We focus on the special case where such constraint arises from the specification that a variable should lie in the range of a neural network.

Scalable Learning-Based Sampling Optimization for Compressive Dynamic MRI

1 code implementation1 Feb 2019 Thomas Sanchez, Baran Gözcü, Ruud B. van Heeswijk, Armin Eftekhari, Efe Ilıcak, Tolga Çukur, Volkan Cevher

Compressed sensing applied to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allows to reduce the scanning time by enabling images to be reconstructed from highly undersampled data.

MOSES: A Streaming Algorithm for Linear Dimensionality Reduction

1 code implementation Transactions of Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence 2019 Armin Eftekhari, Raphael A. Hauser, Andreas Grammenos

This paper introduces Memory-limited Online Subspace Estimation Scheme (MOSES) for both estimating the principal components of data and reducing its dimension.
