We consider subsemimodules and convex subsets of semimodules over semirings with an idempotent addition. We introduce a nonlinear projection on subsemimodules: the projection of a point is the maximal approximation from below of the point…
Parallel and cyclic projection algorithms are proposed for minimizing the sum of a finite family of convex functions over the intersection of a finite family of closed convex subsets of a Hilbert space. These algorithms are of…
This work is devoted to establish the strong convergence results of an iterative algorithm generated by the shrinking projection method in Hilbert spaces. The proposed approximation sequence is used to find a common element in the set of…
We provide formulas for projectors onto a polyhedral set, i.e. the intersection of a finite number of halfspaces. To this aim we formulate the problem of finding the projection as a convex optimization problem and we solve explicitly…
Semimodules over idempotent semirings like the max-plus or tropical semiring have much in common with convex cones. This analogy is particularly apparent in the case of subsemimodules of the n-fold cartesian product of the max-plus semiring…
We develop the max-plus finite element method to solve finite horizon deterministic optimal control problems. This method, that we introduced in a previous work, relies on a max-plus variational formulation, and exploits the properties of…
We consider the problem of maximizing a convex function over a closed convex set in a real Hilbert space. For linear functions, we show that a single orthogonal projection suffices to obtain an approximate solution. For continuous convex…
In this work, we consider a class of convex optimization problems in a real Hilbert space that can be solved by performing a single projection, i.e., by projecting an infeasible point onto the feasible set. Our results improve those…
The problem of the minimization of least squares functionals with $\ell^1$ penalties is considered in an infinite dimensional Hilbert space setting. While there are several algorithms available in the finite dimensional setting there are…
In this paper we present theory, algorithms and applications for regression over the max- plus semiring. We show how max-plus 2-norm regression can be used to obtain maximum likelihood estimates for three different inverse problems. Namely…
The paper considers a split inverse problem involving component equilibrium problems in Hilbert spaces. This problem therefore is called the split equilibrium problem (SEP). It is known that almost solution methods for solving problem (SEP)…
We introduce and analyze an abstract algorithm that aims to find the projection onto a closed convex subset of a Hilbert space. When specialized to the fixed point set of a quasi nonexpansive mapping, the required sufficient condition…
We introduce a relaxed-projection splitting algorithm for solving variational inequalities in Hilbert spaces for the sum of nonsmooth maximal monotone operators, where the feasible set is defined by a nonlinear and nonsmooth continuous…
It is well-known that the sequence of iterations of the composition of projections onto closed affine subspaces converges linearly to the projection onto the intersection of the affine subspaces when the sum of the corresponding linear…
We study the method of cyclic projections when applied to closed and linear subspaces $M_i$, $i=1,\ldots,m$, of a real Hilbert space $\mathcal H$. We show that the average distance to individual sets enjoys a polynomial behaviour…
We solve the problem of best approximation by Parseval frames to an arbitrary frame in a subspace of an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. We explicitly describe all the solutions and we give a criterion for uniqueness. This best…
We study discrete-time $(m,n)$-multirate systems on separable Hilbert spaces, solving the problem of approximating such a system by one which has a shorter multirate period $(m/q,n/q)$, optimally in the Hilbert-Schmidt norm. We work in the…
We study how the supporting hyperplanes produced by the projection process can complement the method of alternating projections and its variants for the convex set intersection problem. For the problem of finding the closest point in the…
