Abstract

We consider a generalization of the classic linear regression problem to the case when the loss is an Orlicz norm. An Orlicz norm is parameterized by a non-negative convex function G:ℝ+→ℝ+ with G(0)=0: the Orlicz norm of a vector x∈ℝn is defined as ‖x‖G=inf\α>0\large|∑i=1n G(|xi|/α)≤ 1\. We consider the cases where the function G(⋅) grows subquadratically. Our main result is based on a new oblivious embedding which embeds the column space of a given matrix A∈ℝn× d with Orlicz norm into a lower dimensional space with ℓ2 norm. Specifically, we show how to efficiently find an embedding matrix S∈ℝm× n,m
