Random projection is often used to project higher-dimensional vectors onto a lower-dimensional space, while approximately preserving their pairwise distances. It has emerged as a powerful tool in various data processing tasks and has attracted considerable research interest. Partly motivated by the recent discoveries in neuroscience, in this paper we study the problem of random projection using binary matrices with controllable sparsity patterns. Specifically, we proposed two sparse binary projection models that work on general data vectors. Compared with the conventional random projection models with dense projection matrices, our proposed models enjoy significant computational advantages due to their sparsity structure, as well as improved accuracies in empirical evaluations.

We introduce a novel random projection technique for efficiently reducing the dimension of very high-dimensional tensors. Building upon classical results on Gaussian random projections and Johnson-Lindenstrauss transforms~(JLT), we propose two tensor ized random projection maps relying on the tensor train~(TT) and CP decomposition format, respectively. The two maps offer very low memory requirements and can be applied efficiently when the inputs are low rank tensors given in the CP or TT format. Our theoretical analysis shows that the dense Gaussian matrix in JLT can be replaced by a low-rank tensor implicitly represented in compressed form with random factors, while still approximately preserving the Euclidean distance of the projected inputs. In addition, our results reveal that the TT format is substantially superior to CP in terms of the size of the random projection needed to achieve the same distortion ratio. Experiments on synthetic data validate our theoretical analysis and demonstrate the superiority of the TT decomposition.
We analyze alternating minimization for column space recovery of a partially observed, approximately low rank matrix with a growing number of columns and a fixed budget of observations per column. In this work, we prove that if the budget is greater than the rank of the matrix, column space recovery succeeds -- as the number of columns grows, the estimate from alternating minimization converges to the true column space with probability tending to one. From our proof techniques, we naturally formulate an active sampling strategy for choosing entries of a column that is theoretically and empirically (on synthetic and real data) better than the commonly studied uniformly random sampling strategy.
We propose two training techniques for improving the robustness of Neural Networks to adversarial attacks, i.e. manipulations of the inputs that are maliciously crafted to fool networks into incorrect predictions. Both methods are independent of the chosen attack and leverage random projections of the original inputs, with the purpose of exploiting both dimensionality reduction and some characteristic geometrical properties of adversarial perturbations. The first technique is called RP-Ensemble and consists of an ensemble of networks trained on multiple project
Recent generative adversarial networks (GANs) are able to generate impressive photo-realistic images. However, controllable generation with GANs remains a challenging research problem. Achieving controllable generation requires semantically interpret able and disentangled factors of variation. It is challenging to achieve this goal using simple fixed distributions such as Gaussian distribution. Instead, we propose an unsupervised framework to learn a distribution of latent codes that control the generator through self-training. Self-training provides an iterative feedback in the GAN training, from the discriminator to the generator, and progressively improves the proposal of the latent codes as training proceeds. The latent codes are sampled from a latent variable model that is learned in the feature space of the discriminator. We consider a normalized independent component analysis model and learn its parameters through tensor factorization of the higher-order moments. Our framework exhibits better disentanglement compared to other variants such as the variational autoencoder, and is able to discover semantically meaningful latent codes without any supervision. We demonstrate empirically on both cars and faces datasets that each group of elements in the learned code controls a mode of variation with a semantic meaning, e.g. pose or background change. We also demonstrate with quantitative metrics that our method generates better results compared to other approaches.
Transforms using random matrices have been found to have many applications. We are concerned with the projection of a signal onto Gaussian-distributed random orthogonal bases. We also would like to easily invert the process through transposes in orde r to facilitate iterative reconstruction. We derive an efficient method to implement random unitary matrices of larger sizes through a set of Givens rotations. Random angles are hierarchically generated on-the-fly and the inverse merely requires traversing the angles in reverse order. Hierarchical randomization of angles also enables reduced storage. Using the random unitary matrices as building blocks we introduce random paraunitary systems (filter banks). We also highlight an efficient implementation of the paraunitary system and of its inverse. We also derive an adaptive under-decimated system, wherein one can control and adapt the amount of projections the signal undergoes, in effect, varying the sampling compression ratio as we go along the signal, without segmenting it. It may locally range from very compressive sampling matrices to (para) unitary random ones. One idea is to adapt to local sparseness characteristics of non-stationary signals.
