We address the rectangular matrix completion problem by lifting the unknown matrix to a positive semidefinite matrix in higher dimension, and optimizing a nonconvex objective over the semidefinite factor using a simple gradient descent scheme. With $O( mu r^2 kappa^2 n max(mu, log n))$ random observations of a $n_1 times n_2$ $mu$-incoherent matrix of rank $r$ and condition number $kappa$, where $n = max(n_1, n_2)$, the algorithm linearly converges to the global optimum with high probability.

We study the asymmetric low-rank factorization problem: [min_{mathbf{U} in mathbb{R}^{m times d}, mathbf{V} in mathbb{R}^{n times d}} frac{1}{2}|mathbf{U}mathbf{V}^top -mathbf{Sigma}|_F^2] where $mathbf{Sigma}$ is a given matrix of size $m times n$ a
nd rank $d$. This is a canonical problem that admits two difficulties in optimization: 1) non-convexity and 2) non-smoothness (due to unbalancedness of $mathbf{U}$ and $mathbf{V}$). This is also a prototype for more complex problems such as asymmetric matrix sensing and matrix completion. Despite being non-convex and non-smooth, it has been observed empirically that the randomly initialized gradient descent algorithm can solve this problem in polynomial time. Existing theories to explain this phenomenon all require artificial modifications of the algorithm, such as adding noise in each iteration and adding a balancing regularizer to balance the $mathbf{U}$ and $mathbf{V}$. This paper presents the first proof that shows randomly initialized gradient descent converges to a global minimum of the asymmetric low-rank factorization problem with a polynomial rate. For the proof, we develop 1) a new symmetrization technique to capture the magnitudes of the symmetry and asymmetry, and 2) a quantitative perturbation analysis to approximate matrix derivatives. We believe both are useful for other related non-convex problems.
Natural gradient descent has proven effective at mitigating the effects of pathological curvature in neural network optimization, but little is known theoretically about its convergence properties, especially for emph{nonlinear} networks. In this wor
k, we analyze for the first time the speed of convergence of natural gradient descent on nonlinear neural networks with squared-error loss. We identify two conditions which guarantee efficient convergence from random initializations: (1) the Jacobian matrix (of networks output for all training cases with respect to the parameters) has full row rank, and (2) the Jacobian matrix is stable for small perturbations around the initialization. For two-layer ReLU neural networks, we prove that these two conditions do in fact hold throughout the training, under the assumptions of nondegenerate inputs and overparameterization. We further extend our analysis to more general loss functions. Lastly, we show that K-FAC, an approximate natural gradient descent method, also converges to global minima under the same assumptions, and we give a bound on the rate of this convergence.
Stein variational gradient descent (SVGD) is a particle-based inference algorithm that leverages gradient information for efficient approximate inference. In this work, we enhance SVGD by leveraging preconditioning matrices, such as the Hessian and F
isher information matrix, to incorporate geometric information into SVGD updates. We achieve this by presenting a generalization of SVGD that replaces the scalar-valued kernels in vanilla SVGD with more general matrix-valued kernels. This yields a significant extension of SVGD, and more importantly, allows us to flexibly incorporate various preconditioning matrices to accelerate the exploration in the probability landscape. Empirical results show that our method outperforms vanilla SVGD and a variety of baseline approaches over a range of real-world Bayesian inference tasks.
Stochastic gradient descent with backpropagation is the workhorse of artificial neural networks. It has long been recognized that backpropagation fails to be a biologically plausible algorithm. Fundamentally, it is a non-local procedure -- updating o
ne neurons synaptic weights requires knowledge of synaptic weights or receptive fields of downstream neurons. This limits the use of artificial neural networks as a tool for understanding the biological principles of information processing in the brain. Lillicrap et al. (2016) propose a more biologically plausible feedback alignment algorithm that uses random and fixed backpropagation weights, and show promising simulations. In this paper we study the mathematical properties of the feedback alignment procedure by analyzing convergence and alignment for two-layer networks under squared error loss. In the overparameterized setting, we prove that the error converges to zero exponentially fast, and also that regularization is necessary in order for the parameters to become aligned with the random backpropagation weights. Simulations are given that are consistent with this analysis and suggest further generalizations. These results contribute to our understanding of how biologically plausible algorithms might carry out weight learning in a manner different from Hebbian learning, with performance that is comparable with the full non-local backpropagation algorithm.
Convergence of the gradient descent algorithm has been attracting renewed interest due to its utility in deep learning applications. Even as multiple variants of gradient descent were proposed, the assumption that the gradient of the objective is Lip
schitz continuous remained an integral part of the analysis until recently. In this work, we look at convergence analysis by focusing on a property that we term as concavifiability, instead of Lipschitz continuity of gradients. We show that concavifiability is a necessary and sufficient condition to satisfy the upper quadratic approximation which is key in proving that the objective function decreases after every gradient descent update. We also show that any gradient Lipschitz function satisfies concavifiability. A constant known as the concavifier analogous to the gradient Lipschitz constant is derived which is indicative of the optimal step size. As an application, we demonstrate the utility of finding the concavifier the in convergence of gradient descent through an example inspired by neural networks. We derive bounds on the concavifier to obtain a fixed step size for a single hidden layer ReLU network.
