• Abstract: Gradient descent (GD) is crucial for generalization in machine learning models, as it induces implicit regularization, promoting compact representations. In this work, we examine the role of GD in inducing implicit regularization for tensor optimization, particularly within the context of the lifted matrix sensing framework. This framework has been recently proposed to address the non-convex matrix sensing problem by transforming spurious solutions into strict saddles when optimizing over symmetric, rank-1 tensors. We show that, with sufficiently small initialization scale, GD applied to this lifted problem results in approximate rank-1 tensors and critical points with escape directions. Our findings underscore the significance of the tensor parametrization of matrix sensing, in combination with first-order methods, in achieving global optimality in such problems.

• An Alternative Graphical Lasso Algorithm for Precision Matrices [0.0]
  We present a new/improved (dual-primal) DP-GLasso algorithm for estimating sparse precision matrices. We show that the regularized normal log-likelihood naturally decouples into a sum of two easy to minimize convex functions one of which is a Lasso regression problem. Our algorithm has the precision matrix as its optimization target right at the outset, and retains all the favorable properties of the DP-GLasso algorithm.

  This work takes the first step toward understanding the inductive bias of the minimum trace of the Hessian solutions in deep linear networks. We show that for all depth greater than one, with the standard Isometry Property (RIP) on the measurements, minimizing the trace of Hessian is approximately equivalent to minimizing the Schatten 1-norm of the corresponding end-to-end matrix parameters.

To improve the gradient, we replace the classic sampling method based on Rademacher and show that the mini-batch method copes with non-Eucli geometry.

  Robust low-rank matrix completion (RMC) has been studied extensively for computer vision, signal processing and machine learning applications. This problem aims to decompose a partially observed matrix into the superposition of a low-rank matrix and a sparse matrix, where the sparse matrix captures the grossly corrupted entries of the matrix. A widely used approach to tackle RMC is to consider a convex formulation, which minimizes the nuclear norm of the low-rank matrix (to promote low-rankness) and the l1 norm of the sparse matrix (to promote sparsity). In this paper, motivated by some recent works on low-
