An Efficient Algorithm for Deep Stochastic Contextual Bandits

no code implementations12 Apr 2021 Tan Zhu, Guannan Liang, Chunjiang Zhu, Haining Li, Jinbo Bi

In this work, we formulate the SCB that uses a DNN reward function as a non-convex stochastic optimization problem, and design a stage-wise stochastic gradient descent algorithm to optimize the problem and determine the action policy.

Escaping Saddle Points with Stochastically Controlled Stochastic Gradient Methods

no code implementations7 Mar 2021 Guannan Liang, Qianqian Tong, Chunjiang Zhu, Jinbo Bi

Stochastically controlled stochastic gradient (SCSG) methods have been proved to converge efficiently to first-order stationary points which, however, can be saddle points in nonconvex optimization.

Federated Nonconvex Sparse Learning

Towards Plausible Differentially Private ADMM Based Distributed Machine Learning

no code implementations11 Aug 2020 Jiahao Ding, Jingyi Wang, Guannan Liang, Jinbo Bi, Miao Pan

In PP-ADMM, each agent approximately solves a perturbed optimization problem that is formulated from its local private data in an iteration, and then perturbs the approximate solution with Gaussian noise to provide the DP guarantee.

Calibrating the Adaptive Learning Rate to Improve Convergence of ADAM

2 code implementations2 Aug 2019 Qianqian Tong, Guannan Liang, Jinbo Bi

Theoretically, we provide a new way to analyze the convergence of AGMs and prove that the convergence rate of \textsc{Adam} also depends on its hyper-parameter $\epsilon$, which has been overlooked previously.

A Sparse Interactive Model for Matrix Completion with Side Information

no code implementations NeurIPS 2016 Jin Lu, Guannan Liang, Jiangwen Sun, Jinbo Bi

We prove that when the side features can span the latent feature space of the matrix to be recovered, the number of observed entries needed for an exact recovery is $O(\log N)$ where $N$ is the size of the matrix.
