This paper addresses the problem of recursive set-membership identification for linear time varying (LTV) systems when both input and output measurements are affected by bounded additive noise. First we formulate the problem of online…
A decision tree is commonly restricted to use a single hyperplane to split the covariate space at each of its internal nodes. It often requires a large number of nodes to achieve high accuracy, hurting its interpretability. In this paper,…
The convex hull of a planar point set is the smallest convex polygon containing each point in the set. The dynamic convex hull problem concerns efficiently maintaining the convex hull of a set of points subject to additions and removals.…
We study the convex hulls of reachable sets of nonlinear systems with bounded disturbances and uncertain initial conditions. Reachable sets play a critical role in control, but remain notoriously challenging to compute, and existing…
We study properties of convex hulls of (co)adjoint orbits of compact groups, with applications to invariant theory and tensor product decompositions. The notion of partial convex hulls is introduced and applied to define two numerical…
Linear optimization is many times algorithmically simpler than non-linear convex optimization. Linear optimization over matroid polytopes, matching polytopes and path polytopes are example of problems for which we have simple and efficient…
Convex clustering has recently garnered increasing interest due to its attractive theoretical and computational properties, but its merits become limited in the face of high-dimensional data. In such settings, pairwise affinity terms that…
We study a natural extension to the well-known convex hull problem by introducing multiplicity: if we are given a set of convex polygons, and we are allowed to partition the set into multiple components and take the convex hull of each…
Recent advances in the efficiency and robustness of algorithms solving convex quadratically constrained quadratic programming (QCQP) problems motivate developing techniques for creating convex quadratic relaxations that, although more…
Given a set of disjoint simple polygons $\sigma_1, \ldots, \sigma_n$, of total complexity $N$, consider a convexification process that repeatedly replaces a polygon by its convex hull, and any two (by now convex) polygons that intersect by…
There has been a long history of works showing that neural networks have hard time extrapolating beyond the training set. A recent study by Balestriero et al. (2021) challenges this view: defining interpolation as the state of belonging to…
Deciding whether the union of two convex polyhedra is itself a convex polyhedron is a basic problem in polyhedral computations; having important applications in the field of constrained control and in the synthesis, analysis, verification…
A number of results related to statistical classification on convex sets are presented. In particular, the focus is on the case where some of the covariates in the data and observation being classified can be missing. The form of the…
MINLO (mixed-integer nonlinear optimization) formulations of the disjunction between the origin and a polytope via a binary indicator variable is broadly used in nonlinear combinatorial optimization for modeling a fixed cost associated with…
This article proposes a biconvex modification to convex biclustering in order to improve its performance in high-dimensional settings. In contrast to heuristics that discard a subset of noisy features a priori, our method jointly learns and…
The notion of a linear Coxeter system introduced by Vinberg generalizes the geometric representation of a Coxeter group. Our main theorem asserts that if $v$ is an element of the Tits cone of a linear Coxeter system and $\cW$ is the…
Polyconvexity is one of the known conditions which guarantee existence of solutions of boundary value problems in finite elasticity. In this work we propose a framework for development of polyconvex strain energy functions for hyperelastic…
Many psychological theories can be operationalized as linear inequality constraints on the parameters of multinomial distributions (e.g., discrete choice analysis). These constraints can be described in two equivalent ways: Either as the…
By unifying various earlier extensions of alternating sign matrices (ASMs), we introduce the notion of prefix-bounded matrices (PBMs). It is shown that the convex hull of these matrices forms the intersection of two special generalized…
We propose a general framework for deriving generalization bounds for parallel positively homogeneous neural networks--a class of neural networks whose input-output map decomposes as the sum of positively homogeneous maps. Examples of such…
