(2010) and Latif and Pečarić (2010) in new direction by using second-order divided difference. We investigate the expone...

Rényi divergence is related to Rényi entropy much like information divergence (also called Kullback-Leibler divergence or relative entropy) is related to Shannon’s entropy, and comes up in many settings. It was introduced by Rényi as a measure of information that satisfies almost the same axioms as information divergence. We review the most important properties of Rényi divergence, including it...

Recently a majorization method for optimizing partition functions of log-linear models was proposed alongside a novel quadratic variational upper-bound. In the batch setting, it outperformed state-of-the-art firstand second-order optimization methods on various learning tasks. We propose a stochastic version of this bound majorization method as well as a low-rank modification for highdimensiona...

Many inequality relations between real vector quantities can be succinctly expressed as “weak (sub)majorization” relations using the symbol ≺w. We explain these ideas and apply them in several areas: angles between subspaces, Ritz values, and graph Laplacian spectra, which we show are all surprisingly related. Let Θ(X ,Y) be the vector of principal angles in nondecreasing order between subspace...

We present a straightforward linear algebraic model of greed, based only on extensions of classical majorization and convexity theory. This gives an alternative to other models of greedy-solvable problems such as matroids, greedoids, submodular functions, etc., and it is able to express established examples of greedy-solvable optimization problems that they cannot. The linear algebraic approach...
