Autoencoders can be challenged by spatially non-uniform sampling of image content. This is common in medical imaging, biology, and physics, where informative patterns occur rarely at specific image coordinates, as background dominates these…
Eigendecomposition (ED) is widely used in deep networks. However, the backpropagation of its results tends to be numerically unstable, whether using ED directly or approximating it with the Power Iteration method, particularly when dealing…
In this paper we analyze and solve eigenvalue programs, which consist of the task of minimizing a function subject to constraints on the "eigenvalues" of the decision variable. Here, by making use of the FTvN systems framework introduced by…
Geometrically, the eigenvectors of a square matrix $\mathbf{A}$ are not rotated by $\mathbf{A}$. Here we consider vectors that are rotated $\pi/2$ by $\mathbf{A}$; that is, vectors orthogonal to their images. We call these vectors…
