LANISTR: Multimodal Learning from Structured and Unstructured Data

Sayna Ebrahimi, Sercan O. Arik, Yihe Dong +1

Multimodal large-scale pretraining has shown impressive performance for unstructured data such as language and image. However, a prevalent real-world scenario involves structured d…

SLM: End-to-end Feature Selection via Sparse Learnable Masks

Yihe Dong, Sercan O. Arik

Feature selection has been widely used to alleviate compute requirements during training, elucidate model interpretability, and improve model generalizability. We propose SLM -- Sp…

HNHN: Hypergraph Networks with Hyperedge Neurons

Yihe Dong, Will Sawin, Yoshua Bengio

Hypergraphs provide a natural representation for many real world datasets. We propose a novel framework, HNHN, for hypergraph representation learning. HNHN is a hypergraph convolut…

CoinPress: Practical Private Mean and Covariance Estimation

Sourav Biswas, Yihe Dong, Gautam Kamath +1

We present simple differentially private estimators for the mean and covariance of multivariate sub-Gaussian data that are accurate at small sample sizes. We demonstrate the effect…

A Study of Performance of Optimal Transport

Yihe Dong, Yu Gao, Richard Peng +2

We investigate the problem of efficiently computing optimal transport (OT) distances, which is equivalent to the node-capacitated minimum cost maximum flow problem in a bipartite g…

COPT: Coordinated Optimal Transport for Graph Sketching

Yihe Dong, Will Sawin

We introduce COPT, a novel distance metric between graphs defined via an optimization routine, computing a coordinated pair of optimal transport maps simultaneously. This gives an…

Scalable Nearest Neighbor Search for Optimal Transport

Arturs Backurs, Yihe Dong, Piotr Indyk +2

The Optimal Transport (a.k.a. Wasserstein) distance is an increasingly popular similarity measure for rich data domains, such as images or text documents. This raises the necessity…

Quantum Entropy Scoring for Fast Robust Mean Estimation and Improved Outlier Detection

Yihe Dong, Samuel B. Hopkins, Jerry Li

We study two problems in high-dimensional robust statistics: \emph{robust mean estimation} and \emph{outlier detection}. In robust mean estimation the goal is to estimate the mean…
