Finding stationary points on bounded-rank matrices: a geometric hurdle and a smooth remedy

Nicolas Boumal

We consider the problem of provably finding a stationary point of a smooth function to be minimized on the variety of bounded-rank matrices. This turns out to be unexpectedly delicate. We trace the difficulty back to a geometric obstacle: On a nonsmooth se ...

Asymptotic Errors for Teacher-Student Convex Generalized Linear Models (Or: How to Prove Kabashima’s Replica Formula)

Florent Gérard Krzakala, Alia Abbara

There has been a recent surge of interest in the study of asymptotic reconstruction performance in various cases of generalized linear estimation problems in the teacher-student setting, especially for the case of i.i.d standard normal matrices. Here, we g ...

Predicting in Uncertain Environments: Methods for Robust Machine Learning

Paul Thierry Yves Rolland

One of the main goal of Artificial Intelligence is to develop models capable of providing valuable predictions in real-world environments. In particular, Machine Learning (ML) seeks to design such models by learning from examples coming from this same envi ...

Sharp asymptotics on the compression of two-layer neural networks

Marco Mondelli, Mohammad Hossein Amani

In this paper, we study the compression of a target two-layer neural network with N nodes into a compressed network with M < N nodes. More precisely, we consider the setting in which the weights of the target network are i.i.d. sub-Gaussian, and we minimiz ...

A first-order primal-dual method with adaptivity to local smoothness

Volkan Cevher, Maria-Luiza Vladarean

We consider the problem of finding a saddle point for the convex-concave objective

\min_x \max_y f(x) + \langle Ax, y\rangle - g^*(y)

, where

f

is a convex function with locally Lipschitz gradient and

g

is convex and possibly non-smooth. We propose an ...

Reactive Navigation in Crowds for Non-holonomic Robots with Convex Bounding Shape

Aude Billard, Diego Felipe Paez Granados, David Julian Gonon

This paper describes a novel method for non-holonomic robots of convex shape to avoid imminent collisions with moving obstacles. The method's purpose is to assist navigation in crowds by correcting steering from the robot's path planner or driver. We evalu ...

Convex optimization in sums of Banach spaces

Michaël Unser, Shayan Aziznejad

We characterize the solution of a broad class of convex optimization problems that address the reconstruction of a function from a finite number of linear measurements. The underlying hypothesis is that the solution is decomposable as a finite sum of compo ...

Critical Parameters for Scalable Distributed Learning with Large Batches and Asynchronous Updates

Martin Jaggi, Sebastian Urban Stich, Amirkeivan Mohtashami

It has been experimentally observed that the efficiency of distributed training with stochastic gradient (SGD) depends decisively on the batch size and—in asynchronous implementations—on the gradient staleness. Especially, it has been observed that the spe ...
