We describe a general framework –compressive statistical learning– for resource-efficient large-scale learning: the training collection is compressed in one pass into a low-dimensional sketch (a vector of random empirical generalized moments) that captures the information relevant to the considered learning task. A near-minimizer of the risk is com...
The problem of clustering has been an important problem since the early 20th century and several possible solutions were proposed. With the rise of computing machines clustering has become an important part of many data mining tasks, focussed on fast implementations. An important task related to clustering is image segmentation. In the set of solut...
We consider generalized linear models where an unknown $n$-dimensional signal vector is observed through the successive application of a random matrix and a non-linear (possibly probabilistic) componentwise function. We consider the models in the high-dimensional limit, where the observation consists of $m$ points, and $m/n {\to} {\alpha}$ where ${...
We examine a network of learners which address the same classification task but must learn from different data sets. The learners cannot share data but instead share their models. Models are shared only one time so as to preserve the network load. We introduce DELCO (standing for Decentralized Ensemble Learning with COpulas), a new approach allowin...
Networks built to model real world phenomena are characeterised by some properties that have attracted the attention of the scientific community: (i) they are organised according to community structure and (ii) their structure evolves with time. Many researchers have worked on methods that can efficiently unveil substructures in complex networks, g...
Mean embeddings provide an extremely flexible and powerful tool in machine learning and statistics to represent probability distributions and define a semi-metric (MMD, maximum mean discrepancy ; also called N-distance or energy distance), with numerous successful applications. The representation is constructed as the expectation of the feature map...

We illustrate the potential applications in machine learning of the Christoffel function, or, more precisely, its empirical counterpart associated with a counting measure uniformly supported on a finite set of points. Firstly, we provide a thresholding scheme which allows approximating the support of a measure from a finite subset of its moments wi...
When confronted with massive data streams, summarizing data with dimension reduction methods such as PCA raises theoretical and algorithmic pitfalls. Principal curves act as a nonlinear generalization of PCA and the present paper proposes a novel algorithm to automatically and sequentially learn principal curves from data streams. We show that our ...

Noninvasive cardiac electrophysiology (EP) model personalisation has raised interest for instance in the scope of predicting EP cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) response. However, the restricted clinical applicability of current methods is due in particular to the limitation to simple situations and the important computational cost. We propo...
