Scalable Algorithms for Tractable Schatten Quasi-Norm Minimization
The Schatten-p quasi-norm is usually used to replace the standard
nuclear norm in order to approximate the rank function more accurately.
However, existing Schatten-p quasi-norm minimization algorithms involve
singular value decomposition (SVD) or eigenvalue decomposition (EVD) in each
iteration, and thus may become very slow and impractical for large-scale
problems. In this paper, we first define two tractable Schatten quasi-norms,
i.e., the Frobenius/nuclear hybrid and bi-nuclear quasi-norms, and then prove
that they are in essence the Schatten-2/3 and 1/2 quasi-norms, respectively,
which lead to the design of very efficient algorithms that only need to update
two much smaller factor matrices. We also design two efficient proximal
alternating linearized minimization algorithms for solving representative
matrix completion problems. Finally, we provide the global convergence and
performance guarantees for our algorithms, which have better convergence
properties than existing algorithms. Experimental results on synthetic and
real-world data show that our algorithms are more accurate than the
state-of-the-art methods, and are orders of magnitude faster.Comment: 16 pages, 5 figures, Appears in Proceedings of the 30th AAAI

Hybrid MIMO Architectures for Millimeter Wave Communications: Phase Shifters or Switches?
Hybrid analog/digital MIMO architectures were recently proposed as an
alternative for fully-digitalprecoding in millimeter wave (mmWave) wireless
communication systems. This is motivated by the possible reduction in the
number of RF chains and analog-to-digital converters. In these architectures,
the analog processing network is usually based on variable phase shifters. In
this paper, we propose hybrid architectures based on switching networks to
reduce the complexity and the power consumption of the structures based on
phase shifters. We define a power consumption model and use it to evaluate the
energy efficiency of both structures. To estimate the complete MIMO channel, we
propose an open loop compressive channel estimation technique which is
independent of the hardware used in the analog processing stage. We analyze the
performance of the new estimation algorithm for hybrid architectures based on
phase shifters and switches. Using the estimated, we develop two algorithms for
the design of the hybrid combiner based on switches and analyze the achieved
spectral efficiency. Finally, we study the trade-offs between power
consumption, hardware complexity, and spectral efficiency for hybrid
architectures based on phase shifting networks and switching networks.
Numerical results show that architectures based on switches obtain equal or
better channel estimation performance to that obtained using phase shifters,
while reducing hardware complexity and power consumption. For equal power
consumption, all the hybrid architectures provide similar spectral
efficiencies.Comment: Submitted to IEEE Acces
Robust Orthogonal Complement Principal Component Analysis
Recently, the robustification of principal component analysis has attracted
lots of attention from statisticians, engineers and computer scientists. In
this work we study the type of outliers that are not necessarily apparent in
the original observation space but can seriously affect the principal subspace
estimation. Based on a mathematical formulation of such transformed outliers, a
novel robust orthogonal complement principal component analysis (ROC-PCA) is
proposed. The framework combines the popular sparsity-enforcing and low rank
regularization techniques to deal with row-wise outliers as well as
element-wise outliers. A non-asymptotic oracle inequality guarantees the
accuracy and high breakdown performance of ROC-PCA in finite samples. To tackle
the computational challenges, an efficient algorithm is developed on the basis
of Stiefel manifold optimization and iterative thresholding. Furthermore, a
batch variant is proposed to significantly reduce the cost in ultra high
dimensions. The paper also points out a pitfall of a common practice of SVD
reduction in robust PCA. Experiments show the effectiveness and efficiency of
ROC-PCA in both synthetic and real data
Adaptive Online Sequential ELM for Concept Drift Tackling
A machine learning method needs to adapt to over time changes in the
environment. Such changes are known as concept drift. In this paper, we propose
concept drift tackling method as an enhancement of Online Sequential Extreme
Learning Machine (OS-ELM) and Constructive Enhancement OS-ELM (CEOS-ELM) by
adding adaptive capability for classification and regression problem. The
scheme is named as adaptive OS-ELM (AOS-ELM). It is a single classifier scheme
that works well to handle real drift, virtual drift, and hybrid drift. The
AOS-ELM also works well for sudden drift and recurrent context change type. The
scheme is a simple unified method implemented in simple lines of code. We
evaluated AOS-ELM on regression and classification problem by using concept
drift public data set (SEA and STAGGER) and other public data sets such as
MNIST, USPS, and IDS. Experiments show that our method gives higher kappa value
compared to the multiclassifier ELM ensemble. Even though AOS-ELM in practice
does not need hidden nodes increase, we address some issues related to the
increasing of the hidden nodes such as error condition and rank values. We
propose taking the rank of the pseudoinverse matrix as an indicator parameter
to detect underfitting condition.Comment: Hindawi Publishing. Computational Intelligence and Neuroscience
