SUMMARY:IFDS Ideas Forum: Miaoyan Wang
DESCRIPTION:PERSON: Miaoyan Wang \nTITLE: Beyond the Signs: Nonparametric Tensor Completion via Sign Series \nABSTRACT: \nBIO:  I am an assistant professor in the Department of Statistics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison since late 2018. I am also an affiliate of the Institute for Foundations of Data Science (IFDS) at Wisconsin Institute for Discovery (WID). My research is in statistical machine learning with a particular focus on matrix/tensor data analysis. Other interests include statistical applications in genetics and neuroimaging. \nPrior to UW-Madision\, I was a postdoc in Computer Science (EECS Department) at UC Berkeley and a Simons Math+X postdoc at University of Pennsylvania. I received my PhD in Statistics from the University of Chicago and BS in Mathematics from Fudan University.

SUMMARY:IFDS All-Hands: Zaid Harchaoui
DESCRIPTION:Zaid Harchaoui\, Associate Professor\, Statistics \nTitle: On statistical estimation\, signal denoising\, and convex optimization \nAbstract: We revisit the classical statistical problem of adaptive discrete-time signal denoising. Conventional nonparametric statistics and signal processing approaches rely on strong structural assumptions on the signal set. The approach we present\, inspired by the seminal works from Ibragimov-Khasminskii and later Donoho\, takes a different view and focuses instead on statistical estimators amenable to convex optimization. We show that such estimators possess better statistical properties than conventional ones. In particular\, under an assumption of approximate shift-invariance\, the proposed estimators enjoy l2-loss oracle inequalities. We show how to implement them using optimal first-order methods and highlight interesting statistical-computational trade-offs. Joint work with D. Ostrovskii\, A. Juditsky\, A. Nemirovski.  \n

SUMMARY:IFDS Ideas Forum: Xuexhou Zhang
DESCRIPTION:Title: Statistical Robustness in Reinforcement Learning \nAbstract: \nXuezhou Zhang (Computer Sciences)\, advised by Jerry Zhu (Computer Sciences) and Kevin Jamieson (U of Washington)\, works on adaptivity and robustness in sequential decision making. His recent work focuses on designing reinforcement learning framework that learns from a diverse source of teaching signals and learns robustly in the presence of data corruptions.
