• Abstract: We consider the problem of developing interpretable and computationally efficient matrix decomposition methods for matrices whose entries have bounded support. Such matrices are found in large-scale DNA methylation studies and many other settings. Our approach decomposes the data matrix into a Tucker representation wherein the number of columns in the constituent factor matrices is not constrained. We derive a computationally efficient sampling algorithm to solve for the Tucker decomposition. We evaluate the performance of our method using three criteria: predictability, computability, and stability. Empirical results show that our method has similar performance as other state-of-the-art approaches in terms of held-out prediction and computational complexity, but has significantly better performance in terms of stability to changes in hyper-parameters. The improved stability results in higher confidence in the results in applications where the constituent factors are used to generate and test scientific hypotheses such as DNA methylation analysis of cancer samples.

  This paper investigates statistical inference for noisy matrix completion in a semi-supervised model. We apply an iterative least squares (LS) estimation approach in our considered context. We show that our method only needs a few iterations, and the resulting entry-wise estimators of the low-rank matrix and the coefficient matrix are guaranteed to have normal distributions.

  This paper tackles the challenge of computing confidence bounds on the individual entries of eigenvectors of a covariance matrix of fixed dimension. We derive a method to bound the entries of the inverse covariance matrix, the so-called precision matrix. As an application of these results, we demonstrate a new statistical test, which allows us to test for non-zero values of the precision matrix.

  We solve a weakly supervised regression problem. Under "weakly" we understand that for some training points the labels are known, for some unknown, and for others uncertain due to the presence of random noise or other reasons such as lack of resources. In the numerical section, we applied the suggested method to artificial and real datasets using Monte-Carlo modeling.

  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-
