Multivariate extreme value statistical analysis is concerned with observations on several variables which are thought to possess some degree of tail-dependence. In areas such as the modeling of financial and insurance risks, or as the…
We present randomized approximation algorithms for multi-criteria Max-TSP. For Max-STSP with k > 1 objective functions, we obtain an approximation ratio of $1/k - \eps$ for arbitrarily small $\eps > 0$. For Max-ATSP with k objective…
We investigate the probabilistic feasibility of randomized solutions to two distinct classes of uncertain multi-agent optimization programs. We first assume that only the constraints of the program are affected by uncertainty, while the…
The evaluation of a matrix exponential function is a classic problem of computational linear algebra. Many different methods have been employed for its numerical evaluation [Moler C and van Loan C 1978 SIAM Review 20 4], none of which…
We derive the exact probability density function of the product of $N$ independent variance-gamma random variables with zero location parameter. We then apply this formula to derive formulas for the cumulative distribution function and…
We study the high-dimensional limit of the free energy associated with the inference problem of a rank-one nonsymmetric matrix. The matrix is expressed as the outer product of two vectors, not necessarily independent. The distributions of…
This work introduces the minimax Laplace transform method, a modification of the cumulant-based matrix Laplace transform method developed in "User-friendly tail bounds for sums of random matrices" (arXiv:1004.4389v6) that yields both upper…
Autonomous ride-hailing platforms must strategically position idle robotaxis to minimize the wait times of prospective riders. We formalize this as the \emph{robotaxi placement problem} ($k$-RP). Given a finite metric space and a demand…
We consider the problem of exact low-rank matrix completion from a geometric viewpoint: given a partially filled matrix M, we keep the positions of specified and unspecified entries fixed, and study how the minimal completion rank depends…
Random matrix theory has played an important role in various areas of pure mathematics, mathematical physics, and machine learning. From a practical perspective of data science, input data are usually normalized prior to processing. Thus,…
We consider the maximization problem of monotone submodular functions under an uncertain knapsack constraint. Specifically, the problem is discussed in the situation that the knapsack capacity is not given explicitly and can be accessed…
We consider the classic problem of pole placement by state feedback. We offer an eigenstructure assignment algorithm to obtain a novel parametric form for the pole-placing feedback matrix that can deliver any set of desired closed-loop…
We first propose a concise singular value decomposition of dual matrices. Then, the randomized version of the decomposition is presented. It can significantly reduce the computational cost while maintaining the similar accuracy. We analyze…
A model of rank polysemantic distribution with a minimal number of fitting parameters is offered. In an ideal case a parameter-free description of the dependence on the basis of one or several immediate features of the distribution is…
What is the connection of random matrices with integrable systems? Is this connection really useful? Introducing apprpriate times in the distribution of the ensemble of matrices, one shows that the corresponding distribution of the…
Given $n$ integer, let $X$ be either the set of hermitian or real $n\times n$ matrices of rank at least $n-1$. If $n$ is even, we give a sharp estimate on the maximal dimension of a real vector subspace of $X\cup\{0\}$. The rusults are…
We consider the asymptotic behavior of the expectation of the maximum for a special assignment process with constant or i.i.d. coefficients. We show how it depends on the coefficients' distribution.
We analyse a generalisation of the Quicksort algorithm, where k uniformly at random chosen pivots are used for partitioning an array of n distinct keys. Specifically, the expected cost of this scheme is obtained, under the assumption of…
We are concerned with a new type of supermartingale decomposition in the Max-Plus algebra, which essentially consists in expressing any supermartingale of class $(\mathcal{D})$ as a conditional expectation of some running supremum process.…
Given a pattern of length $m$ and a text of length $n$, the goal in $k$-mismatch pattern matching is to compute, for every $m$-substring of the text, the exact Hamming distance to the pattern or report that it exceeds $k$. This can be…
