In this paper, we investigate the statistical convergence rate of a Bayesian low-rank tensor estimator. Our problem setting is the regression problem where a tensor structure underlying the data is estimated. This problem setting occurs in many practical applications, such as collaborative filtering, multi-task learning, and spatio-temporal data analysis. The convergence rate is analyzed in terms of both in-sample and out-of-sample predictive accuracies. It is shown that a near optimal rate is achieved without any strong convexity of the observation. Moreover, we show that the method has adaptivity to the unknown rank of the true tensor, that is, the near optimal rate depending on the true rank is achieved even if it is not known a priori.

We connect high-dimensional subset selection and submodular maximization. Our results extend the work of Das and Kempe (2011) from the setting of linear regression to arbitrary objective functions. For greedy feature selection, this connection allows us to obtain strong multiplicative performance bounds on several methods without statistical modeling assumptions. We also derive recovery guarantees of this form under standard assumptions. Our work shows that greedy algorithms perform within a constant factor from the best possible subset-selection solution for a broad class of general objective functions. Our methods allow a direct control over the number of obtained features as opposed to regularization parameters that only implicitly control sparsity. Our proof technique uses the concept of weak submodularity initially defined by Das and Kempe. We draw a connection between convex analysis and submodular set function theory which may be of independent interest for other statistical learning applications that have combinatorial structure.
Numerical causal derivative estimators from noisy data are essential for real time applications especially for control applications or fluid simulation so as to address the new paradigms in solid modeling and video compression. By using an analytical point of view due to Lanczos cite{C. Lanczos} to this causal case, we revisit $n^{th}$ order derivative estimators originally introduced within an algebraic framework by Mboup, Fliess and Join in cite{num,num0}. Thanks to a given noise level $delta$ and a well-suitable integration length window, we show that the derivative estimator error can be $mathcal{O}(delta ^{frac{q+1}{n+1+q}})$ where $q$ is the order of truncation of the Jacobi polynomial series expansion used. This so obtained bound helps us to choose the values of our parameter estimators. We show the efficiency of our method on some examples.
We propose a semismooth Newton algorithm for pathwise optimization (SNAP) for the LASSO and Enet in sparse, high-dimensional linear regression. SNAP is derived from a suitable formulation of the KKT conditions based on Newton derivatives. It solves t he semismooth KKT equations efficiently by actively and continuously seeking the support of the regression coefficients along the solution path with warm start. At each knot in the path, SNAP converges locally superlinearly for the Enet criterion and achieves an optimal local convergence rate for the LASSO criterion, i.e., SNAP converges in one step at the cost of two matrix-vector multiplication per iteration. Under certain regularity conditions on the design matrix and the minimum magnitude of the nonzero elements of the target regression coefficients, we show that SNAP hits a solution with the same signs as the regression coefficients and achieves a sharp estimation error bound in finite steps with high probability. The computational complexity of SNAP is shown to be the same as that of LARS and coordinate descent algorithms per iteration. Simulation studies and real data analysis support our theoretical results and demonstrate that SNAP is faster and accurate than LARS and coordinate descent algorithms.
AdaBelief, one of the current best optimizers, demonstrates superior generalization ability compared to the popular Adam algorithm by viewing the exponential moving average of observed gradients. AdaBelief is theoretically appealing in that it has a data-dependent $O(sqrt{T})$ regret bound when objective functions are convex, where $T$ is a time horizon. It remains however an open problem whether the convergence rate can be further improved without sacrificing its generalization ability. %on how to exploit strong convexity to further improve the convergence rate of AdaBelief. To this end, we make a first attempt in this work and design a novel optimization algorithm called FastAdaBelief that aims to exploit its strong convexity in order to achieve an even faster convergence rate. In particular, by adjusting the step size that better considers strong convexity and prevents fluctuation, our proposed FastAdaBelief demonstrates excellent generalization ability as well as superior convergence. As an important theoretical contribution, we prove that FastAdaBelief attains a data-dependant $O(log T)$ regret bound, which is substantially lower than AdaBelief. On the empirical side, we validate our theoretical analysis with extensive experiments in both scenarios of strong and non-strong convexity on three popular baseline models. Experimental results are very encouraging: FastAdaBelief converges the quickest in comparison to all mainstream algorithms while maintaining an excellent generalization ability, in cases of both strong or non-strong convexity. FastAdaBelief is thus posited as a new benchmark model for the research community.
In our recent paper, we showed that in exponential family, contrastive divergence (CD) with fixed learning rate will give asymptotically consistent estimates cite{wu2016convergence}. In this paper, we establish consistency and convergence rate of CD with annealed learning rate $eta_t$. Specifically, suppose CD-$m$ generates the sequence of parameters ${theta_t}_{t ge 0}$ using an i.i.d. data sample $mathbf{X}_1^n sim p_{theta^*}$ of size $n$, then $delta_n(mathbf{X}_1^n) = limsup_{t to infty} Vert sum_{s=t_0}^t eta_s theta_s / sum_{s=t_0}^t eta_s - theta^* Vert$ converges in probability to 0 at a rate of $1/sqrt[3]{n}$. The number ($m$) of MCMC transitions in CD only affects the coefficient factor of convergence rate. Our proof is not a simple extension of the one in cite{wu2016convergence}. which depends critically on the fact that ${theta_t}_{t ge 0}$ is a homogeneous Markov chain conditional on the observed sample $mathbf{X}_1^n$. Under annealed learning rate, the homogeneous Markov property is not available and we have to develop an alternative approach based on super-martingales. Experiment results of CD on a fully-visible $2times 2$ Boltzmann Machine are provided to demonstrate our theoretical results.
