Neural Information Processing Systems

We start by restating the setup in which our algorithm operates. The type of ICA considered in our work assumes the following generative model. There are dsources recorded T times forming the columns of S:= [s1,...,sT] Rd T whose components s1t,...,sdt are assumed non-Gaussian and independent. Without loss of generality, we assume that each source has zero-mean, unit variance, and finite and distinct kurtosis, a common assumption among kurtosis-based ICA methods [12]. The kurtosis of a random variable v is defined as kurt[v] = E (v E(v))4 / E (v E(v))2 2. Finally, sources are assumed to be mixed through a linear system, i.e., there exists a full rank mixing matrix, A Rd d, producing the d-dimensional mixture, xt, expressed as xt = Ast t {1,...,T} .




An Even More Optimal Stochastic Optimization Algorithm: Minibatching and Interpolation Learning

Neural Information Processing Systems

We present and analyze an algorithm for optimizing smooth and convex or strongly convex objectives using minibatch stochastic gradient estimates. The algorithm is optimal with respect to its dependence on both the minibatch size and minimum expected loss simultaneously. This improves over the optimal method of Lan [17], which is insensitive to the minimum expected loss; over the optimistic acceleration of Cotter et al. [10], which has suboptimal dependence on the minibatch size; and over the algorithm of Liu and Belkin [19], which is limited to least squares problems and is also similarly suboptimal with respect to the minibatch size.



Demographic Parity Constrained Minimax Optimal Regression under Linear Model

Neural Information Processing Systems

We explore the minimax optimal error associated with a demographic parityconstrained regression problem within the context of a linear model. Our proposed model encompasses a broader range of discriminatory bias sources compared to the model presented by Chzhen and Schreuder [6]. Our analysis reveals that the minimax optimal error for the demographic parity-constrained regression problem under our model is characterized by Θ(dM/n), where ndenotes the sample size, d represents the dimensionality, and M signifies the number of demographic groups arising from sensitive attributes. Moreover, we demonstrate that the minimax error increases in conjunction with a larger bias present in the model.

Our proposed model encompasses a broader range of discriminatory bias sources compared to the model presented by Chzhen and Schreuder [6]. Our analysis reveals that the minimax optimal error for the demographic parity-constrained regression problem under our model is characterized by Θ(dM/n), where ndenotes the sample size, d represents the dimensionality, and M signifies the number of demographic groups arising from sensitive attributes. Moreover, we demonstrate that the minimax error increases in conjunction with a larger bias present in the model.
