Improved Robust Estimation for Erdős-Rényi Graphs: The Sparse Regime and Optimal Breakdown Point
Hongjie Chen, Jingqiu Ding, Yiding Hua +1
We study the problem of robustly estimating the edge density of Erdős-Rényi random graphs when an adversary can arbitrarily add or remove edges incident to an …

Outlier-robust Mean Estimation near the Breakdown Point via Sum-of-Squares
Hongjie Chen, Deepak Narayanan Sridharan, David Steurer
We revisit the problem of estimating the mean of a high-dimensional distribution in the presence of an -fraction of adversarial outliers. When is at most…
