We propose an efficient algorithm for solving group synchronization under high levels of corruption and noise, while we focus on rotation synchronization. We first describe our recent theoretically guaranteed message passing algorithm that estimates the corruption levels of the measured group ratios. We then propose a novel reweighted least squares method to estimate the group elements, where the weights are initialized and iteratively updated using the estimated corruption levels. We demonstrate the superior performance of our algorithm over state-of-the-art methods for rotation synchronization using both synthetic and real data.

We propose a general framework for solving the group synchronization problem, where we focus on the setting of adversarial or uniform corruption and sufficiently small noise. Specifically, we apply a novel message passing procedure that uses cycle co nsistency information in order to estimate the corruption levels of group ratios and consequently solve the synchronization problem in our setting. We first explain why the group cycle consistency information is essential for effectively solving group synchronization problems. We then establish exact recovery and linear convergence guarantees for the proposed message passing procedure under a deterministic setting with adversarial corruption. These guarantees hold as long as the ratio of corrupted cycles per edge is bounded by a reasonable constant. We also establish the stability of the proposed procedure to sub-Gaussian noise. We further establish exact recovery with high probability under a common uniform corruption model.
We consider a class of nonlinear mappings $mathsf{F}_{A,N}$ in $mathbb{R}^N$ indexed by symmetric random matrices $Ainmathbb{R}^{Ntimes N}$ with independent entries. Within spin glass theory, special cases of these mappings correspond to iterating th e TAP equations and were studied by Bolthausen [Comm. Math. Phys. 325 (2014) 333-366]. Within information theory, they are known as approximate message passing algorithms. We study the high-dimensional (large $N$) behavior of the iterates of $mathsf{F}$ for polynomial functions $mathsf{F}$, and prove that it is universal; that is, it depends only on the first two moments of the entries of $A$, under a sub-Gaussian tail condition. As an application, we prove the universality of a certain phase transition arising in polytope geometry and compressed sensing. This solves, for a broad class of random projections, a conjecture by David Donoho and Jared Tanner.
The principal submatrix localization problem deals with recovering a $Ktimes K$ principal submatrix of elevated mean $mu$ in a large $ntimes n$ symmetric matrix subject to additive standard Gaussian noise. This problem serves as a prototypical exampl e for community detection, in which the community corresponds to the support of the submatrix. The main result of this paper is that in the regime $Omega(sqrt{n}) leq K leq o(n)$, the support of the submatrix can be weakly recovered (with $o(K)$ misclassification errors on average) by an optimized message passing algorithm if $lambda = mu^2K^2/n$, the signal-to-noise ratio, exceeds $1/e$. This extends a result by Deshpande and Montanari previously obtained for $K=Theta(sqrt{n}).$ In addition, the algorithm can be extended to provide exact recovery whenever information-theoretically possible and achieve the information limit of exact recovery as long as $K geq frac{n}{log n} (frac{1}{8e} + o(1))$. The total running time of the algorithm is $O(n^2log n)$. Another version of the submatrix localization problem, known as noisy biclustering, aims to recover a $K_1times K_2$ submatrix of elevated mean $mu$ in a large $n_1times n_2$ Gaussian matrix. The optimized message passing algorithm and its analysis are adapted to the bicluster problem assuming $Omega(sqrt{n_i}) leq K_i leq o(n_i)$ and $K_1asymp K_2.$ A sharp information-theoretic condition for the weak recovery of both clusters is also identified.

In this paper we treat both forms of probabilistic inference, estimating marginal probabilities of the joint distribution and finding the most probable assignment, through a unified message-passing algorithm architecture. We generalize the Belief Pro pagation (BP) algorithms of sum-product and max-product and tree-rewaighted (TRW) sum and max product algorithms (TRBP) and introduce a new set of convergent algorithms based on convex-free-energy and Linear-Programming (LP) relaxation as a zero-temprature of a convex-free-energy. The main idea of this work arises from taking a general perspective on the existing BP and TRBP algorithms while observing that they all are reductions from the basic optimization formula of $f + sum_i h_i$ where the function $f$ is an extended-valued, strictly convex but non-smooth and the functions $h_i$ are extended-valued functions (not necessarily convex). We use tools from convex duality to present the primal-dual ascent algorithm which is an extension of the Bregman successive projection scheme and is designed to handle optimization of the general type $f + sum_i h_i$. Mapping the fractional-free-energy variational principle to this framework introduces the norm-product message-passing. Special cases include sum-product and max-product (BP algorithms) and the TRBP algorithms. When the fractional-free-energy is set to be convex (convex-free-energy) the norm-product is globally convergent for estimating of marginal probabilities and for approximating the LP-relaxation. We also introduce another branch of the norm-product, the convex-max-product. The convex-max-product is convergent (unlike max-product) and aims at solving the LP-relaxation.
Finite sample properties of random covariance-type matrices have been the subject of much research. In this paper we focus on the lower tail of such a matrix, and prove that it is subgaussian under a simple fourth moment assumption on the one-dimensi onal marginals of the random vectors. A similar result holds for more general sums of random positive semidefinite matrices, and the (relatively simple) proof uses a variant of the so-called PAC-Bayesian method for bounding empirical processes. We give two applications of the main result. In the first one we obtain a new finite-sample bound for ordinary least squares estimator in linear regression with random design. Our result is model-free, requires fairly weak moment assumptions and is almost optimal. Our second application is to bounding restricted eigenvalue constants of certain random ensembles with heavy tails. These constants are important in the analysis of problems in Compressed Sensing and High Dimensional Statistics, where one recovers a sparse vector from a small umber of linear measurements. Our result implies that heavy tails still allow for the fast recovery rates found in efficient methods such as the LASSO and the Dantzig selector. Along the way we strengthen, with a fairly short argument, a recent result of Rudelson and Zhou on the restricted eigenvalue property.
