Learning Confidence Ellipsoids and Applications to Robust Subspace Recovery

Chao Gao, Liren Shan, Vaidehi Srinivas +1

We study the problem of finding confidence ellipsoids for an arbitrary distribution in high dimensions. Given samples from a distribution and a confidence parameter , the go…

Online Conformal Prediction with Efficiency Guarantees

Vaidehi Srinivas

We study the problem of conformal prediction in a novel online framework that directly optimizes efficiency. In our problem, we are given a target miscoverage rate , and a ti…

Volume Optimality in Conformal Prediction with Structured Prediction Sets

Chao Gao, Liren Shan, Vaidehi Srinivas +1

Conformal Prediction is a widely studied technique to construct prediction sets of future observations. Most conformal prediction methods focus on achieving the necessary coverage…

Competitive strategies to use "warm start" algorithms with predictions

Vaidehi Srinivas, Avrim Blum

We consider the problem of learning and using predictions for warm start algorithms with predictions. In this setting, an algorithm is given an instance of a problem, and a predict…

New Tools for Smoothed Analysis: Least Singular Value Bounds for Random Matrices with Dependent Entries

Aditya Bhaskara, Eric Evert, Vaidehi Srinivas +1

We develop new techniques for proving lower bounds on the least singular value of random matrices with limited randomness. The matrices we consider have entries that are given by p…

The Predicted-Updates Dynamic Model: Offline, Incremental, and Decremental to Fully Dynamic Transformations

Quanquan C. Liu, Vaidehi Srinivas

We formulate the predicted-updates dynamic model, one of the first beyond-worst-case models for dynamic algorithms, which generalizes a large set of well-studied dynamic models inc…

The Burer-Monteiro SDP method can fail even above the Barvinok-Pataki bound

Liam O'Carroll, Vaidehi Srinivas, Aravindan Vijayaraghavan

The most widely used technique for solving large-scale semidefinite programs (SDPs) in practice is the non-convex Burer-Monteiro method, which explicitly maintains a low-rank SDP s…

Memory Bounds for the Experts Problem

Vaidehi Srinivas, David P. Woodruff, Ziyu Xu +1

Online learning with expert advice is a fundamental problem of sequential prediction. In this problem, the algorithm has access to a set of "experts" who make predictions on ea…
