Machine learning has recently emerged as a fruitful area for finding potential quantum computational advantage. Many of the quantum enhanced machine learning algorithms critically hinge upon the ability to efficiently produce states proportional to high-dimensional data points stored in a quantum accessible memory. Eve…
We consider the problem of online prediction in a marginally stable linear dynamical system subject to bounded adversarial or (non-isotropic) stochastic perturbations. This poses two challenges. Firstly, the system is in general unidentifiable, so recent and classical results on parameter recovery do not apply. Secondl…
Sampling logconcave functions arising in statistics and machine learning has been a subject of intensive study. Recent developments include analyses for Langevin dynamics and Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC). While both approaches have dimension-independent bounds for the underlying continuous processes under s…
In this paper, we study local solutions F=(F1,..,Fn) of a general functional equation of the form F1(U1(x,y))+....+Fn(Un(x,y))=0. A such equation will be called an ``abelian functional equation'' (Afe). We will restrict ourselves to the case when the inner functions Ui's are real rational functions. First we prove that…
Recent theoretical work has guaranteed that overparameterized networks trained by gradient descent achieve arbitrarily low training error, and sometimes even low test error. The required width, however, is always polynomial in at least one of the sample size n, the (inverse) target error 1/ε, and the (inverse) fail…
A recent line of research on deep learning focuses on the extremely over-parameterized setting, and shows that when the network width is larger than a high degree polynomial of the training sample size n and the inverse of the target error ε−1, deep neural networks learned by (stochastic) gradient descent enjoy …

Optimal hidden-target learning for online inventory optimization on general convex sets.
problem Online inventory optimization (OIO) on arbitrary bounded convex capacity sets.
method Maintaining a hidden target and projecting it onto the feasible order-up-to set.
result The method improves the best known regret guarantee for OIO on general convex sets from inverse to inverse-square-root dependence on the common-demand probability.
Within the framework of statistical learning theory it is possible to bound the minimum number of samples required by a learner to reach a target accuracy. We show that if the bound on the accuracy is taken into account, quantum machine learning algorithms for supervised learning---for which statistical guarantees are …
We present an efficient and practical algorithm for the online prediction of discrete-time linear dynamical systems with a symmetric transition matrix. We circumvent the non-convex optimization problem using improper learning: carefully overparameterize the class of LDSs by a polylogarithmic factor, in exchange for con…
We show how to solve a number of problems in numerical linear algebra, such as least squares regression, ℓp-regression for any p≥1, low rank approximation, and kernel regression, in time $T(A) \poly(\log(nd))$, where for a given input matrix A∈Rn×d, T(A) is the time needed to com…
Heretofore, neural networks with external memory are restricted to single memory with lossy representations of memory interactions. A rich representation of relationships between memory pieces urges a high-order and segregated relational memory. In this paper, we propose to separate the storage of individual experience…
In this paper, we propose a dual memory structure for reinforcement learning algorithms with replay memory. The dual memory consists of a main memory that stores various data and a cache memory that manages the data and trains the reinforcement learning agent efficiently. Experimental results show that the dual memory …
We discuss memory models which are based on tensor decompositions using latent representations of entities and events. We show how episodic memory and semantic memory can be realized and discuss how new memory traces can be generated from sensory input: Existing memories are the basis for perception and new memories ar…
