We prove an abstract form of the strong convergence of the Halpern-type and Tikhonov-type proximal point algorithms in CAT(0) spaces. In addition, we derive uniform and computable rates of metastability (in the sense of Tao) for these…
Solutions to conservation laws satisfy the monotonicity property: the number of local extrema is a non-increasing function of time, and local maximum/minimum values decrease/increase monotonically in time. This paper investigates this…
We derive generalization bounds for learning algorithms based on their robustness: the property that if a testing sample is "similar" to a training sample, then the testing error is close to the training error. This provides a novel…
In this paper, we establish sublinear and linear convergence of fixed point iterations generated by averaged operators in a Hilbert space. Our results are achieved under a bounded H\"older regularity assumption which generalizes the…
