Beyond MMSE: Enhancing PnP Restoration with ProxiMAP

Kenta Vert, Giacomo Meanti, Scott Pesme +2

Plug-and-Play (PnP) methods have become standard tools for solving imaging inverse problems by replacing the intractable maximum a posteriori (MAP) denoiser with the MMSE one. Whil…

MAP Estimation with Denoisers: Convergence Rates and Guarantees

Scott Pesme, Giacomo Meanti, Michael Arbel +1

Denoiser models have become powerful tools for inverse problems, enabling the use of pretrained networks to approximate the score of a smoothed prior distribution. These models are…

A Theoretical Framework for Grokking: Interpolation followed by Riemannian Norm Minimisation

Etienne Boursier, Scott Pesme, Radu-Alexandru Dragomir

We study the dynamics of gradient flow with small weight decay on general training losses . Under mild regularity assumptions and assuming convergen…

Implicit Bias of Mirror Flow on Separable Data

Scott Pesme, Radu-Alexandru Dragomir, Nicolas Flammarion

We examine the continuous-time counterpart of mirror descent, namely mirror flow, on classification problems which are linearly separable. Such problems are minimised `at infinity'…

Leveraging Continuous Time to Understand Momentum When Training Diagonal Linear Networks

Hristo Papazov, Scott Pesme, Nicolas Flammarion

In this work, we investigate the effect of momentum on the optimisation trajectory of gradient descent. We leverage a continuous-time approach in the analysis of momentum gradient…

Saddle-to-Saddle Dynamics in Diagonal Linear Networks

Scott Pesme, Nicolas Flammarion

In this paper we fully describe the trajectory of gradient flow over diagonal linear networks in the limit of vanishing initialisation. We show that the limiting flow successively…

(S)GD over Diagonal Linear Networks: Implicit Regularisation, Large Stepsizes and Edge of Stability

Mathieu Even, Scott Pesme, Suriya Gunasekar +1

In this paper, we investigate the impact of stochasticity and large stepsizes on the implicit regularisation of gradient descent (GD) and stochastic gradient descent (SGD) over dia…

Implicit Bias of SGD for Diagonal Linear Networks: a Provable Benefit of Stochasticity

Scott Pesme, Loucas Pillaud-Vivien, Nicolas Flammarion

Understanding the implicit bias of training algorithms is of crucial importance in order to explain the success of overparametrised neural networks. In this paper, we study the dyn…

On Convergence-Diagnostic based Step Sizes for Stochastic Gradient Descent

Scott Pesme, Aymeric Dieuleveut, Nicolas Flammarion

Constant step-size Stochastic Gradient Descent exhibits two phases: a transient phase during which iterates make fast progress towards the optimum, followed by a stationary phase d…

Online Robust Regression via SGD on the l1 loss

Scott Pesme, Nicolas Flammarion

We consider the robust linear regression problem in the online setting where we have access to the data in a streaming manner, one data point after the other. More specifically, fo…
