Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2608. 08642v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study exact Kullback--Leibler (KL) projection for low-rank factorizations whose two nonnegative factors have prescribed row marginals and a shared, learned column marginal.

Low-Rank Dependence Decomposition via Accelerated Symmetric Non-negative Matrix Factorization

arXiv:2607. 24518v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Symmetric non-negative matrix factorization (SymNMF) recovers latent group structure from a dependence matrix, but its dense, quadratic-memory objective has confined prior work to moderate sizes.

On solving symmetric multi-type orthogonal non-negative matrix tri-factorization problem

arXiv:2606. 08291v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the symmetric multi-type orthogonal non-negative matrix tri-factorization problem, where several symmetric non-negative matrices are simultaneously approximated by factors of the form $GS_{i}G^{\top}$, with a shared non-negative and orthogonal factor $G$.

Spectral DPPs via NEPv: A Scalable Continuous Relaxation of Determinantal MAP for Diversity-Aware Data Selection

arXiv:2606. 19411v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Selecting a small, diverse, high-quality subset from a massive pool of candidates is a recurring primitive in modern machine learning -- data curation and coreset selection for training and fine-tuning large models, active-learning batch acquisition, prompt and exemplar selection for in-context learning, retrieval diversification, and experimental design.

Quotient Dynamics, Effective Curvature, and Implicit Bias in Positive Quadratic Networks

arXiv:2607. 25624v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Positive quadratic networks admit the low-rank representation f_U(x)=x^top UU^top x, where Uinmathbb{R}^{dtimes r} is identifiable only up to right orthogonal multiplication, representing a rank-r PSD matrix Q=UU^top.
