We present a means of formulating and solving the well known structure-and-motion problem in computer vision with probabilistic graphical models. We model the unknown camera poses and 3D feature coordinates as well as the observed 2D…
We consider the problem of learning a sparse graph under the Laplacian constrained Gaussian graphical models. This problem can be formulated as a penalized maximum likelihood estimation of the Laplacian constrained precision matrix. Like in…
We prove bounds for the covering numbers of classes of convex functions and convex sets in Euclidean space. Previous results require the underlying convex functions or sets to be uniformly bounded. We relax this assumption and replace it…
We obtain a far-reaching generalization (in several directions) of the theorem of A. Lambert on the existence of the projective tensor product of operator sequence spaces. This result is obtained in the context of spaces, generalizing…
We consider the problem of estimating a sparse precision matrix of a multivariate Gaussian distribution, including the case where the dimension $p$ is large. Gaussian graphical models provide an important tool in describing conditional…
In this paper we propose counterexamples to the Geometrization Conjecture and the Elliptization Conjecture.
We prove the $C^0$ estimate for the $L_p$ $q$th dual Minkowski problem on $S^2$ under fairly general conditions; namely, when $p$ lies in [0,1) and $q>2+p$, and the $L_p$ $q$th dual curvarture is bounded and bounded away from zero. We note…
We consider the problem of learning high-dimensional Gaussian graphical models. The graphical lasso is one of the most popular methods for estimating Gaussian graphical models. However, it does not achieve the oracle rate of convergence. In…
The classical notion of extreme $L_p$ discrepancy is a quantitative measure for the irregularity of distribution of finite point sets in the $d$-dimensinal unit cube. In this paper we find a dual integration problem whose worst-case error…
For every prime number $p\geq 3$ and every integer $m\geq 1$, we prove the existence of a continuous Galois representation $\rho: G_\mathbb{Q} \rightarrow Gl_m(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ which has open image and is unramified outside $\{p,\infty\}$…
We consider the problem of estimating the parameters of a Gaussian or binary distribution in such a way that the resulting undirected graphical model is sparse. Our approach is to solve a maximum likelihood problem with an added l_1-norm…
This article studies the problem of image restoration of observed images corrupted by impulse noise and mixed Gaussian impulse noise. Since the pixels damaged by impulse noise contain no information about the true image, how to find this…
Elliptic and parabolic integro-differential model problems are considered in the whole space. By verifying H\"ormander condition, the existence and uniqueness is proved in L_{p}-spaces of functions whose regularity is defined by a scalable,…
In this paper a generalized Gauss curvature flow about a convex hypersurface in the Euclidean $n$-space is studied. This flow is closely related to the Orlicz-Minkowski problem, which involves Gauss curvature and a function of support…
Pose Graph Optimization (PGO) is the problem of estimating a set of poses from pairwise relative measurements. PGO is a nonconvex problem, and currently no known technique can guarantee the computation of an optimal solution. In this paper,…
Many inverse problems involve two or more sets of variables that represent different physical quantities but are tightly coupled with each other. For example, image super-resolution requires joint estimation of the image and motion…
This work studies certain aspects of graphs embedded on surfaces. Initially, a colored graph model for a map of a graph on a surface is developed. Then, a concept analogous to (and extending) planar graph is introduced in the same spirit as…
We show that Rudin-Plotkin isometry extension theorem in $L_p$ implies that when $X$ and $Y$ are isometric subspaces of $L_p$ and $p$ is not an even integer, $1 \leq p < \infty$, then $X$ is complemented in $L_p$ if and only if $Y$ is;…
We consider the Voronoi diagram of points in the real plane when the distance between two points $a$ and $b$ is given by $L_p(a-b)$ where $L_p((x,y)) = (|x|^p+|y|^p)^{1/p}.$ We prove that the Voronoi diagram has a limit as $p$ converges to…
Existence of nicely bounded sections of two symmetric convex bodies K and L implies that the intersection of random rotations of K and L is nicely bounded. For L = subspace, this main result immediately yields the unexpected phenomenon: "If…
