• Authors: Murad Tukan and Xuan Wu and Samson Zhou and Vladimir Braverman and Dan Feldman
• Abstract summary: Given a set of points $P$ in $mathbbRd$, the goal is to find $k$ flats of dimension $j$, i.e., affine subspaces, that best fit $P$ under a given distance measure. We show that our construction provides efficient coreset constructions for Cauchy, Welsch, Huber, Geman-McClure, Tukey, $L_infty$, and Fair regression.

• Abstract: $(j,k)$-projective clustering is the natural generalization of the family of $k$-clustering and $j$-subspace clustering problems. Given a set of points $P$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, the goal is to find $k$ flats of dimension $j$, i.e., affine subspaces, that best fit $P$ under a given distance measure. In this paper, we propose the first algorithm that returns an $L_\infty$ coreset of size polynomial in $d$. Moreover, we give the first strong coreset construction for general $M$-estimator regression. Specifically, we show that our construction provides efficient coreset constructions for Cauchy, Welsch, Huber, Geman-McClure, Tukey, $L_1-L_2$, and Fair regression, as well as general concave and power-bounded loss functions. Finally, we provide experimental results based on real-world datasets, showing the efficacy of our approach.

• Clustering to Minimize Cluster-Aware Norm Objectives [0.3481985817302898]
  We seek to partition a given set $P$ of data points into $k$ clusters by finding a set $X$ of $k$ centers. The cost of a cluster, represented by a center $xin X$, is a monotone, symmetric norm $f$ (inner norm) of the vector of distances of points assigned to $x$. The goal is to minimize a norm $g$ (outer norm) of the vector of cluster costs.

  We establish Multilayer Correlation Clustering, a novel generalization of Correlation Clustering (Bansal et al., FOCS '02) to the multilayer setting. In this paper, we are given a series of inputs of Correlation Clustering (called layers) over the common set $V$. The goal is then to find a clustering of $V$ that minimizes the $ell_p$-norm ($pgeq 1$) of the disagreements vector.

• A Unified Framework for Gradient-based Clustering of Distributed Data [51.904327888475606]
  We develop a family of distributed clustering algorithms that work over networks of users. DGC-$mathcalF_rho$ is specialized to popular clustering losses like $K$-means and Huber loss. We show that consensus fixed points of DGC-$mathcalF_rho$ are equivalent to fixed points of gradient clustering over the full data.

• A Unified Framework for Uniform Signal Recovery in Nonlinear Generative Compressed Sensing [68.80803866919123]
  Under nonlinear measurements, most prior results are non-uniform, i.e., they hold with high probability for a fixed $mathbfx*$ rather than for all $mathbfx*$ simultaneously. Our framework accommodates GCS with 1-bit/uniformly quantized observations and single index models as canonical examples. We also develop a concentration inequality that produces tighter bounds for product processes whose index sets have low metric entropy.
