In this thesis, we focus on the problem of achieving practical privacy guarantees in machine learning (ML), where the classic differential privacy (DP) fails to maintain a good trade-off between user privacy and data utility. Differential privacy guarantee ...
The topic of this thesis is the development of new reconstruction methods for cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). Cryo-EM has revolutionized the field of structural biology over the last decade and now permits the regular discovery of biostructures. Yet, t ...
We present LANCET, a self-correcting tool designed to measure the open-loop tail latency of µs-scale datacenter applications with high fan-in connection patterns. LANCET is self-correcting as it relies on online statistical tests to determine situations in ...
We present a voxel-wise Bayesian multi-compartment T2 relaxometry fitting method based on Hamiltonian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (HMCMC) sampling. The T 2 spectrum is modeled as a mixture of truncated Gaussian components, which involves the estimation of par ...
Small variance asymptotics is emerging as a useful technique for inference in large scale Bayesian non-parametric mixture models. This paper analyses the online learning of robot manipulation tasks with Bayesian non-parametric mixture models under small va ...
In this study, we develop statistical relationships between radar observables and drop size distribution properties in different latitude bands to inform radar rainfall retrieval techniques and understand underpinning microphysical reasons for differences ...
We consider two statistical problems at the intersection of functional and non-Euclidean data analysis: the determination of a Fréchet mean in the Wasserstein space of multivariate distributions; and the optimal registration of deformed random measures and ...
We consider the problem of sampling from constrained distributions, which has posed significant challenges to both non-asymptotic analysis and algorithmic design. We propose a unified framework, which is inspired by the classical mirror descent, to derive ...
