48 results for joint diagonalization

The approximate joint diagonalization of a set of matrices consists in finding a basis in which these matrices are as diagonal as possible. This problem naturally appears in several statistical learning tasks such as blind signal separation. We consider the diagonalization criterion studied in a seminal paper by Pham (…

We consider moment matching techniques for estimation in Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA). By drawing explicit links between LDA and discrete versions of independent component analysis (ICA), we first derive a new set of cumulant-based tensors, with an improved sample complexity. Moreover, we reuse standard ICA techni…

We introduce three novel semi-parametric extensions of probabilistic canonical correlation analysis with identifiability guarantees. We consider moment matching techniques for estimation in these models. For that, by drawing explicit links between the new models and a discrete version of independent component analysis …

Graph-based clustering methods have demonstrated the effectiveness in various applications. Generally, existing graph-based clustering methods first construct a graph to represent the input data and then partition it to generate the clustering result. However, such a stepwise manner may make the constructed graph not f…

Spectral methods of moments provide a powerful tool for learning the parameters of latent variable models. Despite their theoretical appeal, the applicability of these methods to real data is still limited due to a lack of robustness to model misspecification. In this paper we present a hierarchical approach to methods…

Adler had shown in 1979 that the Toda system can be given a coad- joint orbit description. We quantize the Toda system by viewing it as a single orbit of a multiplicative group of lower triangular matrices of determinant one with pos- itive diagonal entries. We get a unitary representation of the group with square inte…

In the first quarter of 2006 Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) introduced, as one of the listed products, options on its implied volatility index (VIX). This created the challenge of developing a pricing framework that can simultaneously handle European options, forward-starts, options on the realized variance and …

We introduce a general framework for estimation of inverse covariance, or precision, matrices from heterogeneous populations. The proposed framework uses a Laplacian shrinkage penalty to encourage similarity among estimates from disparate, but related, subpopulations, while allowing for differences among matrices. We p…

We show that a basis of a semisimple Lie algebra of compact type, for which any diagonal left-invariant metric has a diagonal Ricci tensor, is characterized by the Lie algebraic condition of being "nice". Namely, the bracket of any two basis elements is a multiple of another basis element. This extends the work of Laur…

We prove a number of convexity results for strata of the diagonal pants graph of a surface, in analogy with the extrinsic geometric properties of strata in the Weil-Petersson completion. As a consequence, we exhibit convex flat subgraphs of every possible rank inside the diagonal pants graph.
