Recently, great attention was intended toward overcomplete dictionaries and the sparse representations they can provide. In a wide variety of signal processing problems, sparsity serves a crucial property leading to high performance. Inpainting, the process of reconstructing lost or deteriorated parts of images or videos, is an interesting application which can be handled by suitably decomposition of an image through combination of overcomplete dictionaries. This paper addresses a novel technique of such a decomposition and investigate that through inpainting of images. Simulations are presented to demonstrate the validation of our approach.

We study the problem of learning overcomplete HMMs---those that have many hidden states but a small output alphabet. Despite having significant practical importance, such HMMs are poorly understood with no known positive or negative results for effic ient learning. In this paper, we present several new results---both positive and negative---which help define the boundaries between the tractable and intractable settings. Specifically, we show positive results for a large subclass of HMMs whose transition matrices are sparse, well-conditioned, and have small probability mass on short cycles. On the other hand, we show that learning is impossible given only a polynomial number of samples for HMMs with a small output alphabet and whose transition matrices are random regular graphs with large degree. We also discuss these results in the context of learning HMMs which can capture long-term dependencies.
Fake news often involves semantic manipulations across modalities such as image, text, location etc and requires the development of multimodal semantic forensics for its detection. Recent research has centered the problem around images, calling it im age repurposing -- where a digitally unmanipulated image is semantically misrepresented by means of its accompanying multimodal metadata such as captions, location, etc. The image and metadata together comprise a multimedia package. The problem setup requires algorithms to perform multimodal semantic forensics to authenticate a query multimedia package using a reference dataset of potentially related packages as evidences. Existing methods are limited to using a single evidence (retrieved package), which ignores potential performance improvement from the use of multiple evidences. In this work, we introduce a novel graph neural network based model for multimodal semantic forensics, which effectively utilizes multiple retrieved packages as evidences and is scalable with the number of evidences. We compare the scalability and performance of our model against existing methods. Experimental results show that the proposed model outperforms existing state-of-the-art algorithms with an error reduction of up to 25%.

We study nonconvex optimization landscapes for learning overcomplete representations, including learning (i) sparsely used overcomplete dictionaries and (ii) convolutional dictionaries, where these unsupervised learning problems find many application s in high-dimensional data analysis. Despite the empirical success of simple nonconvex algorithms, theoretical justifications of why these methods work so well are far from satisfactory. In this work, we show these problems can be formulated as $ell^4$-norm optimization problems with spherical constraint, and study the geometric properties of their nonconvex optimization landscapes. For both problems, we show the nonconvex objectives have benign (global) geometric structures, in the sense that every local minimizer is close to one of the target solutions and every saddle point exhibits negative curvature. This discovery enables the development of guaranteed global optimization methods using simple initializations. For both problems, we show the nonconvex objectives have benign geometric structures -- every local minimizer is close to one of the target solutions and every saddle point exhibits negative curvature -- either in the entire space or within a sufficiently large region. This discovery ensures local search algorithms (such as Riemannian gradient descent) with simple initializations approximately find the target solutions. Finally, numerical experiments justify our theoretical discoveries.

Recommender systems aim to provide personalized services to users and are playing an increasingly important role in our daily lives. The key of recommender systems is to predict how likely users will interact with items based on their historical onli ne behaviors, e.g., clicks, add-to-cart, purchases, etc. To exploit these user-item interactions, there are increasing efforts on considering the user-item interactions as a user-item bipartite graph and then performing information propagation in the graph via Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). Given the power of GNNs in graph representation learning, these GNN-based recommendation methods have remarkably boosted the recommendation performance. Despite their success, most existing GNN-based recommender systems overlook the existence of interactions caused by unreliable behaviors (e.g., random/bait clicks) and uniformly treat all the interactions, which can lead to sub-optimal and unstable performance. In this paper, we investigate the drawbacks (e.g., non-adaptive propagation and non-robustness) of existing GNN-based recommendation methods. To address these drawbacks, we propose the Graph Trend Networks for recommendations (GTN) with principled designs that can capture the adaptive reliability of the interactions. Comprehensive experiments and ablation studies are presented to verify and understand the effectiveness of the proposed framework. Our implementation and datasets can be released after publication.

Black-box problems are common in real life like structural design, drug experiments, and machine learning. When optimizing black-box systems, decision-makers always consider multiple performances and give the final decision by comprehensive evaluatio ns. Motivated by such practical needs, we focus on constrained black-box problems where the objective and constraints lack known special structure, and evaluations are expensive and even with noise. We develop a novel constrained Bayesian optimization approach based on the knowledge gradient method ($c-rm{KG}$). A new acquisition function is proposed to determine the next batch of samples considering optimality and feasibility. An unbiased estimator of the gradient of the new acquisition function is derived to implement the $c-rm{KG}$ approach.
