This article considers compressive learning, an approach to large-scale machine learning where datasets are massively compressed before learning (e.g., clustering, classification, or regression) is performed. In particular, a sketch is first constructed by computing carefully chosen nonlinear random features (e.g., random Fourier features) and averaging them over the whole dataset. Parameters are then learned from the sketch, without access to the original dataset. This article surveys the current state-of-the-art in compressive learning, including the main concepts and algorithms, their connections with established signal-processing methods, existing theoretical guarantees -- on both information preservation and privacy preservation, and important open problems.

We consider sketched approximate matrix multiplication and ridge regression in the novel setting of localized sketching, where at any given point, only part of the data matrix is available. This corresponds to a block diagonal structure on the sketch ing matrix. We show that, under mild conditions, block diagonal sketching matrices require only O(stable rank / epsilon^2) and $O( stat. dim. epsilon)$ total sample complexity for matrix multiplication and ridge regression, respectively. This matches the state-of-the-art bounds that are obtained using global sketching matrices. The localized nature of sketching considered allows for different parts of the data matrix to be sketched independently and hence is more amenable to computation in distributed and streaming settings and results in a smaller memory and computational footprint.

Learning parameters from voluminous data can be prohibitive in terms of memory and computational requirements. We propose a compressive learning framework where we estimate model parameters from a sketch of the training data. This sketch is a collect ion of generalized moments of the underlying probability distribution of the data. It can be computed in a single pass on the training set, and is easily computable on streams or distributed datasets. The proposed framework shares similarities with compressive sensing, which aims at drastically reducing the dimension of high-dimensional signals while preserving the ability to reconstruct them. To perform the estimation task, we derive an iterative algorithm analogous to sparse reconstruction algorithms in the context of linear inverse problems. We exemplify our framework with the compressive estimation of a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), providing heuristics on the choice of the sketching procedure and theoretical guarantees of reconstruction. We experimentally show on synthetic data that the proposed algorithm yields results comparable to the classical Expectation-Maximization (EM) technique while requiring significantly less memory and fewer computations when the number of database elements is large. We further demonstrate the potential of the approach on real large-scale data (over 10 8 training samples) for the task of model-based speaker verification. Finally, we draw some connections between the proposed framework and approximate Hilbert space embedding of probability distributions using random features. We show that the proposed sketching operator can be seen as an innovative method to design translation-invariant kernels adapted to the analysis of GMMs. We also use this theoretical framework to derive information preservation guarantees, in the spirit of infinite-dimensional compressive sensing.
Communication complexity and privacy are the two key challenges in Federated Learning where the goal is to perform a distributed learning through a large volume of devices. In this work, we introduce FedSKETCH and FedSKETCHGATE algorithms to address both challenges in Federated learning jointly, where these algorithms are intended to be used for homogeneous and heterogeneous data distribution settings respectively. The key idea is to compress the accumulation of local gradients using count sketch, therefore, the server does not have access to the gradients themselves which provides privacy. Furthermore, due to the lower dimension of sketching used, our method exhibits communication-efficiency property as well. We provide, for the aforementioned schemes, sharp convergence guarantees. Finally, we back up our theory with various set of experiments.
Graph convolutional networks (GCNs) are a widely used method for graph representation learning. We investigate the power of GCNs, as a function of their number of layers, to distinguish between different random graph models on the basis of the embedd ings of their sample graphs. In particular, the graph models that we consider arise from graphons, which are the most general possible parameterizations of infinite exchangeable graph models and which are the central objects of study in the theory of dense graph limits. We exhibit an infinite class of graphons that are well-separated in terms of cut distance and are indistinguishable by a GCN with nonlinear activation functions coming from a certain broad class if its depth is at least logarithmic in the size of the sample graph. These results theoretically match empirical observations of several prior works. Finally, we show a converse result that for pairs of graphons satisfying a degree profile separation property, a very simple GCN architecture suffices for distinguishability. To prove our results, we exploit a connection to random walks on graphs.

Rationale and Objectives: Medical artificial intelligence systems are dependent on well characterised large scale datasets. Recently released public datasets have been of great interest to the field, but pose specific challenges due to the disconnect they cause between data generation and data usage, potentially limiting the utility of these datasets. Materials and Methods: We visually explore two large public datasets, to determine how accurate the provided labels are and whether other subtle problems exist. The ChestXray14 dataset contains 112,120 frontal chest films, and the MURA dataset contains 40,561 upper limb radiographs. A subset of around 700 images from both datasets was reviewed by a board-certified radiologist, and the quality of the original labels was determined. Results: The ChestXray14 labels did not accurately reflect the visual content of the images, with positive predictive values mostly between 10% and 30% lower than the values presented in the original documentation. There were other significant problems, with examples of hidden stratification and label disambiguation failure. The MURA labels were more accurate, but the original normal/abnormal labels were inaccurate for the subset of cases with degenerative joint disease, with a sensitivity of 60% and a specificity of 82%. Conclusion: Visual inspection of images is a necessary component of understanding large image datasets. We recommend that teams producing public datasets should perform this important quality control procedure and include a thorough description of their findings, along with an explanation of the data generating procedures and labelling rules, in the documentation for their datasets.
