Optimal rates for zero-order convex optimization: the power of two function evaluations
John C. Duchi, Michael I. Jordan, Martin J. Wainwright +1
We consider derivative-free algorithms for stochastic and non-stochastic convex optimization problems that use only function values rather than gradients. Focusing on non-asymptoti…
Streaming Variational Bayes
Tamara Broderick, Nicholas Boyd, Andre Wibisono +2
We present SDA-Bayes, a framework for (S)treaming, (D)istributed, (A)synchronous computation of a Bayesian posterior. The framework makes streaming updates to the estimated posteri…
Maximum entropy distributions on graphs
Christopher Hillar, Andre Wibisono
Inspired by applications to theories of coding and communication in networks of nervous tissue, we study maximum entropy distributions on weighted graphs with a given expected degr…
