▼a Statistical inference on high-dimensional and noisy data is a central concern of modern computer science. Often, the main challenges are inherently computational: the problems are well understood from a purely statistical perspective, but key st |

▼a We develop a unified approach to algorithm design for statistical inference based on the Sum of Squares method, a powerful tool for convex programming with low-degree polynomials, which generalizes linear programming and spectral algorithms. We |

▼a We also prove computational lower bounds for some statistical problems, including the long-studied planted clique problem. Our lower bounds provide new strong evidence for the existence of information-computation gaps -- that is, statistical pro |

▼a We show that polynomial-size semidefinite programs from the Sum of Squares hierarchy cannot refute the existence of cliques of size much less than the square root of n in n-node random graphs. Additionally, we prove a lower bound for sparse prin |

▼a Our approach to algorithms and lower bounds suggests a new method to chart the edge of algorithmic tractability for statistical inference. We propose a classification of Bayesian inference problems according to solvability by algorithms which co |
