In this paper we present a new algorithm for computing a low rank approximation of the product $A^TB$ by taking only a single pass of the two matrices $A$ and $B$. The straightforward way to do this is to (a) first sketch $A$ and $B$ individually, and then (b) find the top components using PCA on the sketch. Our algori…

PySAD offers a unified Python framework for efficient streaming anomaly detection.

We consider stochastic gradient descent (SGD) for least-squares regression with potentially several passes over the data. While several passes have been widely reported to perform practically better in terms of predictive performance on unseen data, the existing theoretical analysis of SGD suggests that a single pass i…

In many estimation problems, e.g. linear and logistic regression, we wish to minimize an unknown objective given only unbiased samples of the objective function. Furthermore, we aim to achieve this using as few samples as possible. In the absence of computational constraints, the minimizer of a sample average of observ…

Two-layer networks learn faster with batch reuse, overcoming information and leap exponents.

We present a streaming model for large-scale classification (in the context of $\ell_2$-SVM) by leveraging connections between learning and computational geometry. The streaming model imposes the constraint that only a single pass over the data is allowed. The $\ell_2$-SVM is known to have an equivalent formulation in …

New algorithms minimize regret in streaming MAB with memory constraints.

Given a collection of categorical data, we want to find the parameters of a Dirichlet distribution which maximizes the likelihood of that data. Newton's method is typically used for this purpose but current implementations require reading through the entire dataset on each iteration. In this paper, we propose a modific…

We derive a single pass algorithm for computing the gradient and Fisher information of Vecchia's Gaussian process loglikelihood approximation, which provides a computationally efficient means for applying the Fisher scoring algorithm for maximizing the loglikelihood. The advantages of the optimization techniques are de…

We present SDA-Bayes, a framework for (S)treaming, (D)istributed, (A)synchronous computation of a Bayesian posterior. The framework makes streaming updates to the estimated posterior according to a user-specified approximation batch primitive. We demonstrate the usefulness of our framework, with variational Bayes (VB) …

Generative networks trained with sketching reduce computational burden.

We develop and analyze a procedure for gradient-based optimization that we refer to as stochastically controlled stochastic gradient (SCSG). As a member of the SVRG family of algorithms, SCSG makes use of gradient estimates at two scales, with the number of updates at the faster scale being governed by a geometric rand…

This note explores probabilistic sampling weighted by uncertainty in active learning. This method has been previously used and authors have tangentially remarked on its efficacy. The scheme has several benefits: (1) it is computationally cheap, (2) it can be implemented in a single-pass streaming fashion which is a ben…

Numerous algorithms are used for nonnegative matrix factorization under the assumption that the matrix is nearly separable. In this paper, we show how to make these algorithms efficient for data matrices that have many more rows than columns, so-called "tall-and-skinny matrices". One key component to these improved met…

Improved uncertainty estimation in neural networks with VBLL.

Kernel approximation using randomized feature maps has recently gained a lot of interest. In this work, we identify that previous approaches for polynomial kernel approximation create maps that are rank deficient, and therefore do not utilize the capacity of the projected feature space effectively. To address this chal…

The Denoising Autoencoder (DAE) enhances the flexibility of the data stream method in exploiting unlabeled samples. Nonetheless, the feasibility of DAE for data stream analytic deserves an in-depth study because it characterizes a fixed network capacity that cannot adapt to rapidly changing environments.

We develop efficient algorithms for robust PCA that handle outliers.

COMET is a single-pass MapReduce algorithm for learning on large-scale data. It builds multiple random forest ensembles on distributed blocks of data and merges them into a mega-ensemble. This approach is appropriate when learning from massive-scale data that is too large to fit on a single machine. To get the best acc…

Aux-Net model handles dynamic systems with inconsistent inputs.

We analyze a compression scheme for large data sets that randomly keeps a small percentage of the components of each data sample. The benefit is that the output is a sparse matrix and therefore subsequent processing, such as PCA or K-means, is significantly faster, especially in a distributed-data setting. Furthermore,…

A scalable method for heavy-tailed gradients using cheap stochastic sub-processes.

Machine learning models of music typically break up the task of composition into a chronological process, composing a piece of music in a single pass from beginning to end. On the contrary, human composers write music in a nonlinear fashion, scribbling motifs here and there, often revisiting choices previously made. In…

Oja's algorithm has been the cornerstone of streaming methods in Principal Component Analysis (PCA) since it was first proposed in 1982. However, Oja's algorithm does not have a standardized choice of learning rate (step size) that both performs well in practice and truly conforms to the online streaming setting. In th…
