We consider a class of l0-minimization problems, which is to search for the partial sparsest solution to an underdetermined linear system with additional constraints. We introduce several concepts, including lp-induced norm (0 < p < 1),…

The \(L_1/L_2\) norm ratio has gained significant attention as a measure of sparsity due to three merits: sharper approximation to the \(L_0\) norm compared to the \(L_1\) norm, being parameter-free and scale-invariant, and exceptional…
This paper presents a methodology for solving a geometrically robust least squares problem, which arises in various applications where the model is subject to geometric constraints. The problem is formulated as a minimax optimization…
Solving an integer least squares (ILS) problem usually consists of two stages: reduction and search. This thesis is concerned with the reduction process for the ordinary ILS problem and the ellipsoid-constrained ILS problem. For the…
In our work, we consider the linear least squares problem for $m\times n$-systems of linear equations $Ax = b$, $m\geq n$, such that the matrix $A$ and right-hand side vector $b$ can vary within an interval $m\times n$-matrix and an…
Finding a shortest path in a graph is one of the most classic problems in algorithmic and graph theory. While we dispose of quite efficient algorithms for this ordinary problem (like the Dijkstra or Bellman-Ford algorithms), some slight…
We use simple sub-Riemannian techniques to prove that an arbitrary geometric p-rough path in the sense of Lyons (98) is the limit in sup-norm of a sequence of canonically lifted smooth paths, which are uniformly bounded in p-variation,…
Estimating the values of unknown parameters from corrupted measured data faces a lot of challenges in ill-posed problems. In such problems, many fundamental estimation methods fail to provide a meaningful stabilized solution. In this work,…
