In many modern data sets, High dimension low sample size (HDLSS) data is prevalent in many fields of studies. There has been an increased focus recently on using machine learning and statistical methods to mine valuable information out of…

An unsolved issue in widely used methods such as Support Vector Data Description (SVDD) and Small Sphere and Large Margin SVM (SSLM) for anomaly detection is their nonconvexity, which hampers the analysis of optimal solutions in a manner…

Matrices with hierarchical low-rank structure, including HODLR and HSS matrices, constitute a versatile tool to develop fast algorithms for addressing large-scale problems. While existing software packages for such matrices often focus on…

SDPNAL+ is a {\sc Matlab} software package that implements an augmented Lagrangian based method to solve large scale semidefinite programming problems with bound constraints. The implementation was initially based on a majorized semismooth…

Sketch-and-solve (SAS) is a very successful method to efficiently estimate the solution of heavily overdetermined large linear least squares problems. It uses random sketching to reduce the size of the problem, hence reducing the…

In computer vision, many problems such as image segmentation, pixel labelling, and scene parsing can be formulated as binary quadratic programs (BQPs). For submodular problems, cuts based methods can be employed to efficiently solve…

Many computer vision problems (e.g., camera calibration, image alignment, structure from motion) are solved with nonlinear optimization methods. It is generally accepted that second order descent methods are the most robust, fast, and…

Least squares (LS) fitting is one of the most fundamental techniques in science and engineering. It is used to estimate parameters from multiple noisy observations. In many problems the parameters are known a-priori to be bounded integer…

In our work, we consider the linear least squares problem for $m\times n$-systems of linear equations $Ax = b$, $m\geq n$, such that the matrix $A$ and right-hand side vector $b$ can vary within an interval $m\times n$-matrix and an…

The main goal of this paper is to investigate strong duality of non-convex semidefinite programming problems (SDPs). In the optimization community, it is well-known that a convex optimization problem satisfies strong duality if the Slater's…

The iteratively reweighted least squares method (IRLS) is a popular technique used in practice for solving regression problems. Various versions of this method have been proposed, but their theoretical analyses failed to capture the good…

For an overdetermined system $\mathsf{A}\mathsf{x} \approx \mathsf{b}$ with $\mathsf{A}$ and $\mathsf{b}$ given, the least-square (LS) formulation $\min_x \, \|\mathsf{A}\mathsf{x}-\mathsf{b}\|_2$ is often used to find an acceptable…
