Exact Permutation Recovery Under Unknown Scalar Affine Transformation

Tigran Galstyan, Avetik Karagulyan, Arshak Minasyan

We study the problem of matching two sets of noisy feature vectors when underlying true features are related by an unknown scalar affine transformation. Our method comprises two pr…

Improved Guarantees for Langevin Monte Carlo with Average Smoothness

Arnak S. Dalalyan, Avetik Karagulyan

We establish improved nonasymptotic bounds for Langevin Monte Carlo in the strongly log-concave setting, when the error is measured by the Wasserstein distance. The main result sho…

Langevin Monte Carlo for strongly log-concave distributions: Randomized midpoint revisited

Lu Yu, Avetik Karagulyan, Arnak Dalalyan

We revisit the problem of sampling from a target distribution that has a smooth strongly log-concave density everywhere in . In this context, if no additional density…

Convergence of Stein Variational Gradient Descent under a Weaker Smoothness Condition

Lukang Sun, Avetik Karagulyan, Peter Richtarik

Stein Variational Gradient Descent (SVGD) is an important alternative to the Langevin-type algorithms for sampling from probability distributions of the form $π(x) \propto \exp(-V(…

Penalized Langevin dynamics with vanishing penalty for smooth and log-concave targets

Avetik Karagulyan, Arnak S. Dalalyan

We study the problem of sampling from a probability distribution on defined via a convex and smooth potential function. We consider a continuous-time diffusion-type p…

Bounding the error of discretized Langevin algorithms for non-strongly log-concave targets

Arnak S. Dalalyan, Avetik Karagulyan, Lionel Riou-Durand

In this paper, we provide non-asymptotic upper bounds on the error of sampling from a target density using three schemes of discretized Langevin diffusions. The first scheme is the…

Non-Asymptotic Guarantees For Sampling by Stochastic Gradient Descent

Avetik Karagulyan

Sampling from various kinds of distributions is an issue of paramount importance in statistics since it is often the key ingredient for constructing estimators, test procedures or…

User-friendly guarantees for the Langevin Monte Carlo with inaccurate gradient

Arnak S. Dalalyan, Avetik G. Karagulyan

In this paper, we study the problem of sampling from a given probability density function that is known to be smooth and strongly log-concave. We analyze several methods of approxi…
