Abstract:

I will discuss recent results describing the fundamental limits of recovery for a broad class of problems involving heterogeneous pairwise observations. The key idea is to show that many of these problems can be seen as a special case of the matrix tensor product model. An application of these results shows that recently proposed methods based on applying principal component analysis to weighted combinations of the data are optimal in some settings but suboptimal in others.
