PTF Testing Lower Bounds for Non-Gaussian Component Analysis

Ilias Diakonikolas, Daniel M. Kane, Sihan Liu +1

This work studies information-computation gaps for statistical problems. A common approach for providing evidence of such gaps is to show sample complexity lower bounds (that are s…

Linear Regression under Missing or Corrupted Coordinates

Ilias Diakonikolas, Jelena Diakonikolas, Daniel M. Kane +2

We study multivariate linear regression under Gaussian covariates in two settings, where data may be erased or corrupted by an adversary under a coordinate-wise budget. In the inco…

On Fine-Grained Distinct Element Estimation

Ilias Diakonikolas, Daniel M. Kane, Jasper C. H. Lee +3

We study the problem of distributed distinct element estimation, where servers each receive a subset of a universe and aim to compute a -approximation to…

Optimal Robust Estimation under Local and Global Corruptions: Stronger Adversary and Smaller Error

Thanasis Pittas, Ankit Pensia

Algorithmic robust statistics has traditionally focused on the contamination model where a small fraction of the samples are arbitrarily corrupted. We consider a recent contaminati…

Statistical Query Lower Bounds for Learning Truncated Gaussians

Ilias Diakonikolas, Daniel M. Kane, Thanasis Pittas +1

We study the problem of estimating the mean of an identity covariance Gaussian in the truncated setting, in the regime when the truncation set comes from a low-complexity family $\…
