Large-scale Machine Learning
Data sets grow rapidly both in their volumes and dimensionalities,
in part because they are increasingly gathered by cheap and numerous
information-sensing mobile devices, aerial (remote sensing), software logs, cameras, microphones, radio-frequency identification (RFID) readers and wireless sensor networks.
This addresses new algorithmic challenges in machine learning tasks, where
we have worked on developing new algorithms resolving the issues.
Approximating Spectral Sums of Large-scale MatricesComputation of the trace of a matrix function plays an important role in many scientific computing applications, including applications in machine learning, computational physics (e.g., lattice quantum chromodynamics), network analysis and computational biology (e.g., protein folding), just to name a few application areas. We have worked on developing fast algorithms for approximating the trace of matrix functions of large symmetric matrices with tens of millions dimensions.
