  • Type : Proposal of Minisymposium
  • Abstract : The recovery of high-dimensional functions from point evaluations or more general linear measurements is a cornerstone of approximation theory and numerical analysis. While both are well-developed areas, the recent advances in learning theory and high-dimensional statistics sparked several new relations and tools for approximating functions. The research area hence has seen a quite remarkable synthesis of old and new results, especially in the context of nonlinear models such as neural networks and randomized techniques. In this minisymposium we aim at highlighting recent developments of high-dimensional regression and sampling with modern applications in machine learning and function approximation.

      • Abstract : We investigate the problem of approximating a function in $L^2$ with a linear space of functions of dimension $n$, using only evaluations at m chosen points. We improve on earlier results based on the solution to the Kadison-Singer problem, by using a randomized greedy strategy, which allows to reduce the oversampling ratio $m/n$ and provides an algorithm of polynomial complexity.
    • [04593] Polynomial tractability for integrating functions with slowly decaying Fourier series
      • Author(s) :
        • Takashi Goda (The University of Tokyo)
      • Abstract : This talk is concerned with high-dimensional numerical integration problem. In this context, polynomial tractability refers to the scenario where the minimum number of function evaluations required to make the worst-case error less than or equal to a tolerance $\varepsilon$ grows only polynomially with respect to $\varepsilon^{-1}$ and the dimension $d$. For function spaces that are \emph{unweighted}, meaning that all variables contribute equally to the norm of functions, there are many negative results known in the literature that exhibit the curse of dimensionality. The aim of this paper is to show a contrasting result by introducing a non-trivial unweighted function space with absolutely convergent Fourier series that exhibits polynomial tractability with an explicit quasi-Monte Carlo rule.
