Constrained High Dimensional Statistical Inference

Ming Yu, Varun Gupta, Mladen Kolar

In typical high dimensional statistical inference problems, confidence intervals and hypothesis tests are performed for a low dimensional subset of model parameters under the assum…

Convergent Policy Optimization for Safe Reinforcement Learning

Ming Yu, Zhuoran Yang, Mladen Kolar +1

We study the safe reinforcement learning problem with nonlinear function approximation, where policy optimization is formulated as a constrained optimization problem with both the…

Simultaneous Inference for Pairwise Graphical Models with Generalized Score Matching

Ming Yu, Varun Gupta, Mladen Kolar

Probabilistic graphical models provide a flexible yet parsimonious framework for modeling dependencies among nodes in networks. There is a vast literature on parameter estimation a…

Provable Gaussian Embedding with One Observation

Ming Yu, Zhuoran Yang, Tuo Zhao +2

The success of machine learning methods heavily relies on having an appropriate representation for data at hand. Traditionally, machine learning approaches relied on user-defined h…

Learning Influence-Receptivity Network Structure with Guarantee

Ming Yu, Varun Gupta, Mladen Kolar

Traditional works on community detection from observations of information cascade assume that a single adjacency matrix parametrizes all the observed cascades. However, in reality…

Simultaneous Parameter Learning and Bi-Clustering for Multi-Response Models

Ming Yu, Karthikeyan Natesan Ramamurthy, Addie Thompson +1

We consider multi-response and multitask regression models, where the parameter matrix to be estimated is expected to have an unknown grouping structure. The groupings can be along…
