Sampling from the Mean-Field Stationary Distribution

no code implementations12 Feb 2024 Yunbum Kook, Matthew S. Zhang, Sinho Chewi, Murat A. Erdogdu, Mufan Bill Li

We study the complexity of sampling from the stationary distribution of a mean-field SDE, or equivalently, the complexity of minimizing a functional over the space of probability measures which includes an interaction term.

Understanding Adam Optimizer via Online Learning of Updates: Adam is FTRL in Disguise

no code implementations2 Feb 2024 Kwangjun Ahn, ZhiYu Zhang, Yunbum Kook, Yan Dai

In this work, we provide a different perspective based on online learning that underscores the importance of Adam's algorithmic components.

Gaussian Cooling and Dikin Walks: The Interior-Point Method for Logconcave Sampling

no code implementations24 Jul 2023 Yunbum Kook, Santosh S. Vempala

The Dikin walk uses a local metric defined by a self-concordant barrier for linear constraints.

Condition-number-independent convergence rate of Riemannian Hamiltonian Monte Carlo with numerical integrators

no code implementations13 Oct 2022 Yunbum Kook, Yin Tat Lee, Ruoqi Shen, Santosh S. Vempala

We show that for distributions in the form of $e^{-\alpha^{\top}x}$ on a polytope with $m$ constraints, the convergence rate of a family of commonly-used integrators is independent of $\left\Vert \alpha\right\Vert _{2}$ and the geometry of the polytope.

Sampling with Riemannian Hamiltonian Monte Carlo in a Constrained Space

1 code implementation3 Feb 2022 Yunbum Kook, Yin Tat Lee, Ruoqi Shen, Santosh S. Vempala

We demonstrate for the first time that ill-conditioned, non-smooth, constrained distributions in very high dimension, upwards of 100, 000, can be sampled efficiently $\textit{in practice}$.

Evolution of Real-world Hypergraphs: Patterns and Models without Oracles

1 code implementation28 Aug 2020 Yunbum Kook, Jihoon Ko, Kijung Shin

What kind of macroscopic structural and dynamical patterns can we observe in real-world hypergraphs?
