We consider two greedy algorithms for minimizing a convex function in a bounded convex set: an algorithm by Jones [1992] and the Frank-Wolfe (FW) algorithm. We first consider approximate versions of these algorithms. For smooth convex…
Sparse approximation is important in many applications because of concise form of an approximant and good accuracy guarantees. The theory of compressed sensing, which proved to be very useful in the image processing and data sciences, is…
In this paper we show that that greedy bases can be defined as those where the error term using $m$-greedy approximant is uniformly bounded by the best $m$-term approximation with respect to polynomials with constant coefficients in the…
Submodular functions are a broad class of set functions, which naturally arise in diverse areas. Many algorithms have been suggested for the maximization of these functions. Unfortunately, once the function deviates from submodularity, the…
We consider classes of objective functions of cardinality constrained maximization problems for which the greedy algorithm guarantees a constant approximation. We propose the new class of $\gamma$-$\alpha$-augmentable functions and prove…
In this paper we propose a unified way of analyzing a certain kind of greedy-type algorithms in Banach spaces. We define a class of the Weak Biorthogonal Greedy Algorithms that contains a wide range of greedy algorithms. In particular, we…
We study sparse approximation by greedy algorithms. We prove the Lebesgue-type inequalities for the Weak Chebyshev Greedy Algorithm (WCGA), a generalization of the Weak Orthogonal Matching Pursuit to the case of a Banach space. The main…
We continue the study of Lebesgue-type parameters for various greedy algorithms in quasi-Banach spaces. First, we introduce a parameter that can be used with the quasi-greedy parameter to obtain the exact growth of the Lebesgue parameter…
We provide a comprehensive reply to the comment written by Chiara Angelini and Federico Ricci-Tersenghi [arXiv:2206.13211] and argue that the comment singles out one particular non-representative example problem, entirely focusing on the…
Motivated by an application in kidney exchange, we study the following query-commit problem: we are given the set of vertices of a non-bipartite graph G. The set of edges in this graph are not known ahead of time. We can query any pair of…
We show that the Lindenstrauss basic sequence in l_1 may be used to construct a conditional quasi-greedy basis of l_1, thus answering a question of Wojtaszczyk. We further show that the sequence of coefficient functionals for this basis is…
It is a survey on recent results in constructive sparse approximation. Three directions are discussed here: (1) Lebesgue-type inequalities for greedy algorithms with respect to a special class of dictionaries, (2) constructive sparse…
In this paper, we study greedy variants of quasi-Newton methods. They are based on the updating formulas from a certain subclass of the Broyden family. In particular, this subclass includes the well-known DFP, BFGS and SR1 updates. However,…
We consider the influence maximization problem (selecting $k$ seeds in a network maximizing the expected total influence) on undirected graphs under the linear threshold model. On the one hand, we prove that the greedy algorithm always…
It was previously known that the almost greedy (AG) property essentially remains the same when we enlarge greedy sums in the classical definition by a factor $\lambda \geqslant 1$. The present paper shows that if instead, we enlarge greedy…
We continue with the study of greedy-type bases in quasi-Banach spaces started in [3]. In this paper, we study partially-greedy bases focusing our attention in two main results: -Characterization of partially-greedy bases in quasi-Banach…
We provide a comprehensive reply to the comment written by Stefan Boettcher [arXiv:2210.00623] and argue that the comment singles out one particular non-representative example problem, entirely focusing on the maximum cut problem (MaxCut)…
The theory of greedy-like bases started in 1999 when S. V. Konyagin and V. N. Temlyakov introduced in \cite{KT} the famous Thresholding Greedy Algorithm. Since this year, different greedy-like bases appeared in the literature, as for…
In this paper, we study weights for the Thresholding Greedy Algorithm (TGA). While previous work focused on sequential weights $\varsigma = (s_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ on each positive integer, we study a more general weight $\omega =…
Recently, it has been discovered that results on universal sampling discretization of the square norm are useful in sparse sampling recovery with error being measured in the square norm. It was established that a simple greedy type…
