A General Framework for Accurate and Private Mean Estimation
Published in IEEE Signal Processing Letters, 2022
In this letter, we present a differentially private algorithm which accurately estimates the mean of an underlying population with given cumulative distribution function.

Distributionally Robust Policy Gradient for Offline Contextual Bandits
Published in AISTATS, 2023
In this paper, we employ a distributionally robust policy gradient method, DROPO, to account for the distributional shift between the static logging policy and the learning policy in policy gradient. Our approach conservatively estimates the conditional reward distributional and updates the policy accordingly.

Bias-Variance Trade-off in Physics-Informed Neural Networks with Randomized Smoothing for High-Dimensional PDEs
Published in SIAM Journal of Computational Physics (under review), 2023
In this paper, we present a comprehensive analysis of biases in RS-PINN, attributing them to the nonlinearity of the Mean Squared Error (MSE) loss as well as the intrinsic nonlinearity of the PDE itself. We also propose tailored bias correction techniques, delineating their application based on the order of PDE nonlinearity. The derivation of an unbiased RS-PINN allows for a detailed examination of its advantages and disadvantages compared to the biased version.

Memory-Efficient Gradient Unrolling for Large-Scale Bi-level Optimization
Published in Neurips, 2024
In this paper, we introduce Forward Gradient Unrolling with Forward Gradient, abbreviated as $(FG)^2U$, which achieves an unbiased stochastic approximation of the meta gradient for bi-level optimization.
