Matrix concentration inequalities via the method of exchangeable pairs

TL;DR: In this article, a matrix extension of the scalar concentration theory developed by Sourav Chatterjee using Stein's method of exchangeable pairs is presented. But it is not a generalization of the classical inequalities due to Hoeffding, Bernstein, Khintchine and Rosenthal.
Proceedings Article

Practical Large-Scale Optimization for Max-norm Regularization

TL;DR: This work uses a factorization technique of Burer and Monteiro to devise scalable first-order algorithms for convex programs involving the max-norm and these algorithms are applied to solve huge collaborative filtering, graph cut, and clustering problems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Randomized numerical linear algebra: Foundations and algorithms

TL;DR: This survey describes probabilistic algorithms for linear algebraic computations, such as factorizing matrices and solving linear systems, that have a proven track record for real-world problems and treats both the theoretical foundations of the subject and practical computational issues.
Book ChapterDOI

Convex recovery of a structured signal from independent random linear measurements

TL;DR: This chapter develops a theoretical analysis of the convex programming method for recovering a structured signal from independent random linear measurements that delivers bounds for the sampling complexity that are similar to recent results for standard Gaussian measurements.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Sparse Approximation Via Iterative Thresholding

TL;DR: A sufficient condition for which general IT exactly recovers a sparse signal is presented, in which the cumulative coherence function naturally arises, and previous results concerning the orthogonal matching pursuit and basis pursuit algorithms to IT algorithms are extended.
