Query Efficient Structured Matrix Learning

arXiv:2507.19290v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study the problem of learning a structured approximation (low-rank, sparse, banded, etc.) to an unknown matrix $A$ given access to matrix-...

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.

Learning Partition Trees for Nearest Neighbor Search

arXiv:2607. 09909v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study nearest neighbor search from the perspective of data-driven algorithm design: given a dataset $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of size $n$ and sample access to a query distribution over $\mathbb{R}^d$, the goal is to learn a data structure optimized for queries drawn from that specific distribution.
