Optimal Average-Case Reductions to Sparse PCA: From Weak Assumptions to Strong Hardness

Matthew Brennan, Guy Bresler

In the past decade, sparse principal component analysis has emerged as an archetypal problem for illustrating statistical-computational tradeoffs. This trend has largely been drive…

Universality of Computational Lower Bounds for Submatrix Detection

Matthew Brennan, Guy Bresler, Wasim Huleihel

In the general submatrix detection problem, the task is to detect the presence of a small submatrix with entries sampled from a distribution in an $n \ti…
