Paper analyzes a three-loop linkage, showing it's overconstrained and shaky.

Study of rigid body displacements in a projective space over dual numbers with geometric interpretations.

We show how to solve a number of problems in numerical linear algebra, such as least squares regression, $\ell_p$-regression for any $p \geq 1$, low rank approximation, and kernel regression, in time $T(A) \poly(\log(nd))$, where for a given input matrix $A \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times d}$, $T(A)$ is the time needed to com…

This paper explores how boolean formulas can be learned by deep neural networks.

Symmetry in neural networks affects generalization, as shown by CLT and RG transformations.

In this era of large-scale data, distributed systems built on top of clusters of commodity hardware provide cheap and reliable storage and scalable processing of massive data. Here, we review recent work on developing and implementing randomized matrix algorithms in large-scale parallel and distributed environments. Ra…

We provide fast algorithms for overconstrained $\ell_p$ regression and related problems: for an $n\times d$ input matrix $A$ and vector $b\in\mathbb{R}^n$, in $O(nd\log n)$ time we reduce the problem $\min_{x\in\mathbb{R}^d} \|Ax-b\|_p$ to the same problem with input matrix $\tilde A$ of dimension $s \times d$ and corr…

In the total least squares problem, one is given an $m \times n$ matrix $A$, and an $m \times d$ matrix $B$, and one seeks to "correct" both $A$ and $B$, obtaining matrices $\hat{A}$ and $\hat{B}$, so that there exists an $X$ satisfying the equation $\hat{A}X = \hat{B}$. Typically the problem is overconstrained, meanin…
