A Theoretical Analysis of the Repetition Problem in Text Generation
Zihao Fu, Wai Lam, Anthony Man-Cho So +1
Text generation tasks, including translation, summarization, language models, and etc. see rapid growth during recent years. Despite the remarkable achievements, the repetition pro…
Fast Epigraphical Projection-based Incremental Algorithms for Wasserstein Distributionally Robust Support Vector Machine
Jiajin Li, Caihua Chen, Anthony Man-Cho So
Wasserstein \textbf{D}istributionally \textbf{R}obust \textbf{O}ptimization (DRO) is concerned with finding decisions that perform well on data that are drawn from the worst-case p…
A Newton Tracking Algorithm with Exact Linear Convergence Rate for Decentralized Consensus Optimization
Jiaojiao Zhang, Qing Ling, Anthony Man-Cho So
This paper considers the decentralized consensus optimization problem defined over a network where each node holds a second-order differentiable local objective function. Our goal…
Understanding Notions of Stationarity in Non-Smooth Optimization
Jiajin Li, Anthony Man-Cho So, Wing-Kin Ma
Many contemporary applications in signal processing and machine learning give rise to structured non-convex non-smooth optimization problems that can often be tackled by simple ite…
Boosting First-Order Methods by Shifting Objective: New Schemes with Faster Worst-Case Rates
Kaiwen Zhou, Anthony Man-Cho So, James Cheng
We propose a new methodology to design first-order methods for unconstrained strongly convex problems. Specifically, instead of tackling the original objective directly, we constru…
