Owing to their low-complexity iterations, Frank-Wolfe (FW) solvers are well suited for various large-scale learning tasks. When block-separable constraints are present, randomized block FW (RB-FW) has been shown to further reduce complexity…
Fourier extension is an approximation scheme in which a function on an arbitary bounded domain is approximated using a classical Fourier series on a bounding box. On the smaller domain the Fourier series exhibits redundancy, and it has the…
