IMPROVED REGULARITY OF SECOND DERIVATIVES FOR SUBHARMONIC FUNCTIONS

Xavier Fernandez-Real Girona, Riccardo Tione

In this note, we prove that if a subharmonic function Delta u >= 0 has pure second derivatives partial derivative(ii)u that are signed measures, then their negative part (partial derivative(ii)u)- belongs to L-1 (in particular, it is not singular). We then ...

Stochastic derivative estimation for max-stable random fields

Erwan Fabrice Koch

We consider expected performances based on max-stable random fields and we are interested in their derivatives with respect to the spatial dependence parameters of those fields. Max-stable fields, such as the Brown-Resnick and Smith fields, are very popula ...

Adaptive Stochastic Variance Reduction for Non-convex Finite-Sum Minimization

Volkan Cevher, Ali Kavis, Kimon Antonakopoulos, Leello Tadesse Dadi, Efstratios Panteleimon Skoulakis

We propose an adaptive variance-reduction method, called AdaSpider, for minimization of L-smooth, non-convex functions with a finite-sum structure. In essence, AdaSpider combines an AdaGrad-inspired [Duchi et al., 2011, McMahan & Streeter, 2010], but a fai ...

Unambiguous DNFs and Alon-Saks-Seymour

Mika Tapani Göös, Siddhartha Jain

We exhibit an unambiguous k-DNF formula that requires CNF width (Omega) over tilde (k(2)), which is optimal up to logarithmic factors. As a consequence, we get a near-optimal solution to the Alon-Saks-Seymour problem in graph theory (posed in 1991), which ...

Differentiable Signed Distance Function Rendering

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Delio Aleardo Vicini, Sébastien Nicolas Speierer

Physically-based differentiable rendering has recently emerged as an attractive new technique for solving inverse problems that recover complete 3D scene representations from images. The inversion of shape parameters is of particular interest but also pose ...

A computational workflow for the expansion of heterologous biosynthetic pathways to natural product derivatives

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Jasmin Maria Hafner

Plant natural products (PNPs) and their derivatives are important but underexplored sources of pharmaceutical molecules. To access this untapped potential, the reconstitution of heterologous PNP biosynthesis pathways in engineered microbes provides a valua ...

Local Non-Rigid Structure-from-Motion from Locally Diffeomorphic Mappings

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Shaifali Parashar

We propose a new formulation to the non-rigid structure-from-motion problem that only requires the deforming surface to meaning that its differential structure is preserved. This is a much weaker assumption than the traditional ones of isometry or conforma ...

On design strategies for binary dielectric metasurfaces based on the Fourier modal method

Kévin Müller

Binary dielectric metasurfaces are arrays of sub-wavelength structures that act as a thin layer of artificial material. They are generally lossless and relatively simple to fabricate since only a single structuring step is required. By carefully designing ...

Convergences of Regularized Algorithms and Stochastic Gradient Methods with Random Projections

Volkan Cevher, Junhong Lin

We study the least-squares regression problem over a Hilbert space, covering nonparametric regression over a reproducing kernel Hilbert space as a special case. We rst investigate regularized algorithms adapted to a projection operator on a closed subspace ...

Optimal Convergence for Distributed Learning with Stochastic Gradient Methods and Spectral Algorithms

Volkan Cevher, Junhong Lin

We study generalization properties of distributed algorithms in the setting of nonparametric regression over a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). We first investigate distributed stochastic gradient methods (SGM), with mini-batches and multi-passes o ...

Imaginary Multiplicative Chaos: Moments, Regularity And Connections To The Ising Model

Janne Matias Junnila

In this article we study imaginary Gaussian multiplicative chaos-namely a family of random generalized functions which can formally be written as e(iX(x)), where X is a log-correlated real-valued Gaussian field on R-d, that is, it has a logarithmic singula ...

Multilevel weighted least squares polynomial approximation

Fabio Nobile

Weighted least squares polynomial approximation uses random samples to determine projections of functions onto spaces of polynomials. It has been shown that, using an optimal distribution of sample locations, the number of samples required to achieve quasi ...

Optimal Spline Generators for Derivative Sampling

Michaël Unser, Shayan Aziznejad

The goal of derivative sampling is to reconstruct a signal from the samples of the function and of its first-order derivative. In this paper, we consider this problem over a shift-invariant reconstruction subspace generated by two compact-support functions ...

Let’s be honest: An optimal no-regret framework for zero-sum games

Volkan Cevher, Ya-Ping Hsieh, Mehmet Fatih Sahin

We revisit the problem of solving two-player zero- sum games in the decentralized setting. We pro- pose a simple algorithmic framework that simulta- neously achieves the best rates for honest regret as well as adversarial regret, and in addition resolves t ...

Stable high-order randomized cubature formulae in arbitrary dimension

Graviton scattering and a sum rule for the c anomaly in 4D CFT

Splines Are Universal Solutions of Linear Inverse Problems with Generalized TV Regularization

Splines come in a variety of flavors that can be characterized in terms of some differential operator L. The simplest piecewise-constant model corresponds to the derivative operator. Likewise, one can extend the traditional notion of total variation by con ...
