In this paper, we present a generic framework to extend existing uniformly optimal convex programming algorithms to solve more general nonlinear, possibly nonconvex, optimization problems. The basic idea is to incorporate a local search…
The efficiency of Gr\"obner basis computation, the standard engine for solving systems of polynomial equations, depends on the choice of monomial ordering. Despite a near-continuum of possible monomial orders, most implementations rely on…
We investigate the performance of a deterministic GREEDY algorithm for the problem of maximizing functions under a partition matroid constraint. We consider non-monotone submodular functions and monotone subadditive functions. Even though…
This paper presents a general framework for generating greedy algorithms for solving convex constraint satisfaction problems for sparse solutions by mapping the satisfaction problem into one of graph traversal on a rooted tree of unknown…
The reduced basis method (RBM) empowers repeated and rapid evaluation of parametrized partial differential equations through an offline-online decomposition, a.k.a. a learning-execution process. A key feature of the method is a greedy…
One of the most attractive recent approaches to processing well-structured large-scale convex optimization problems is based on smooth convex-concave saddle point reformu-lation of the problem of interest and solving the resulting problem…
We propose a convex-concave programming approach for the labeled weighted graph matching problem. The convex-concave programming formulation is obtained by rewriting the weighted graph matching problem as a least-square problem on the set…
In this paper, we develop new first-order method for composite non-convex minimization problems with simple constraints and inexact oracle. The objective function is given as a sum of "`hard"', possibly non-convex part, and "`simple"'…
Given a set of strings, the shortest common superstring problem is to find the shortest possible string that contains all the input strings. The problem is NP-hard, but a lot of work has gone into designing approximation algorithms for…
This paper considers a discrete-time decision problem wherein a decision maker has to track, on average, a sequence of inputs selected from a convex set $\mathcal X \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ by choosing actions from a possibly non-convex…
We consider the problem of inserting one item into a list of N-1 ordered items. We previously showed that no quantum algorithm could solve this problem in fewer than log N/(2 log log N) queries, for N large. We transform the problem into a…
Consider the puzzle: given a number, remove $k$ digits such that the resulting number is as large as possible. Various techniques were employed to derive a linear-time solution to the puzzle: predicate logic was used to justify the…
In this paper we extend test set based augmentation methods for integer linear programs to programs with more general convex objective functions. We show existence and computability of finite test sets for these wider problem classes by…
In this paper, we present the first outer approximation algorithm for multi-objective mixed-integer linear programming problems with any number of objectives. The algorithm also works for certain classes of non-linear programming problems.…
Combining kernel-based collocation methods with time-stepping methods to solve parabolic partial differential equations can potentially introduce challenges in balancing temporal and spatial discretization errors. Typically, using kernels…
In this paper, we study the non-monotone adaptive submodular maximization problem subject to a cardinality constraint. We first revisit the adaptive random greedy algorithm proposed in \citep{gotovos2015non}, where they show that this…
The paper presents a priori error analysis of the shallow neural network approximation to the solution to the indefinite elliptic equation and and cutting-edge implementation of the Orthogonal Greedy Algorithm (OGA) tailored to overcome the…
We present a short step interior point method for solving a class of nonlinear programming problems with quadratic objective function. Convex quadratic programming problems can be reformulated as problems in this class. The method is shown…
We propose algorithms to take point sets for kernel-based interpolation of functions in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHSs) by convex optimization. We consider the case of kernels with the Mercer expansion and propose an algorithm by…
A subgradient method is presented for solving general convex optimization problems, the main requirement being that a strictly-feasible point is known. A feasible sequence of iterates is generated, which converges to within user-specified…
