Concentration of Multilinear Functions of the Ising Model with Applications to Network Data

Constantinos Daskalakis, Nishanth Dikkala, Gautam Kamath

We prove near-tight concentration of measure for polynomial functions of the Ising model under high temperature. For any degree , we show that a degree- polynomial of a -s…

Which Distribution Distances are Sublinearly Testable?

Constantinos Daskalakis, Gautam Kamath, John Wright

Given samples from an unknown distribution and a description of a distribution , are and close or far? This question of "identity testing" has received significant a…

Robustly Learning a Gaussian: Getting Optimal Error, Efficiently

Ilias Diakonikolas, Gautam Kamath, Daniel M. Kane +3

We study the fundamental problem of learning the parameters of a high-dimensional Gaussian in the presence of noise -- where an -fraction of our samples were chosen by…

Priv'IT: Private and Sample Efficient Identity Testing

Bryan Cai, Constantinos Daskalakis, Gautam Kamath

We develop differentially private hypothesis testing methods for the small sample regime. Given a sample from a categorical distribution over some domain , an expli…

Being Robust (in High Dimensions) Can Be Practical

Ilias Diakonikolas, Gautam Kamath, Daniel M. Kane +3

Robust estimation is much more challenging in high dimensions than it is in one dimension: Most techniques either lead to intractable optimization problems or estimators that can t…
