Kernel-based methods provide flexible and accurate algorithms for the reconstruction of functions from meshless samples. A major question in the use of such methods is the influence of the samples locations on the behavior of the…

In this paper, we propose a new greedy algorithm for sparse approximation, called SLS for Single L_1 Selection. SLS essentially consists of a greedy forward strategy, where the selection rule of a new component at each iteration is based on…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce $\omega$-Chebyshev-greedy and $\omega$-partially greedy approximation classes and to study their relation with $\omega$-approximation spaces, where the latter are a generalization of the classical…

Motivated by a wide range of applications in data mining and machine learning, we consider the problem of maximizing a submodular function subject to supermodular cost constraints. In contrast to the well-understood setting of cardinality…

We provide new approximation guarantees for greedy low rank matrix estimation under standard assumptions of restricted strong convexity and smoothness. Our novel analysis also uncovers previously unknown connections between the low rank…

In this paper we analyze a greedy procedure to approximate a linear functional defined in a Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space by nodal values. This procedure computes a quadrature rule which can be applied to general functionals, including…

The greedy algorithm adapted from Kruskal's algorithm is an efficient and folklore way to produce a $k$-spanner with girth at least $k+2$. The greedy algorithm has shown to be `existentially optimal', while it's not `universally optimal'…

The \emph{deterministic} sparse grid method, also known as Smolyak's method, is a well-established and widely used tool to tackle multivariate approximation problems, and there is a vast literature on it. Much less is known about…

Let $K$ be the Calder\'on-Zygmund convolution kernel on $\mathbb{R}^d (d\geq2)$. Define the commutator associated with $K$ and $a\in L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^d)$ by \[ T_af(x)=p.v. \int K(x-y)m_{x,y}a\cdot f(y)dy. \] Recently, Grafakos and…

We show a new functional limit theorem for weakly dependent regularly varying sequences of random vectors. As it turns out, the convergence takes place in the space of R^d valued c\`{a}dl\`{a}g functions endowed with the so-called weak M1…

Recent work by Rauhut and Ward developed a notion of weighted sparsity and a corresponding notion of Restricted Isometry Property for the space of weighted sparse signals. Using these notions, we pose a best weighted sparse approximation…

We extend results known for the randomized Gauss-Seidel and the Gauss-Southwell methods for the case of a Hermitian and positive definite matrix to certain classes of non-Hermitian matrices. We obtain convergence results for a whole range…

This study investigated typical performance of approximation algorithms known as belief propagation, greedy algorithm, and linear-programming relaxation for maximum coverage problems on sparse biregular random graphs. After using the cavity…

Many image processing applications benefited remarkably from the theory of sparsity. One model of sparsity is the cosparse analysis one. It was shown that using l_1-minimization one might stably recover a cosparse signal from a small set of…

We examine the minimum entropy coupling problem, where one must find the minimum entropy variable that has a given set of distributions $S = \{p_1, \dots, p_m \}$ as its marginals. Although this problem is NP-Hard, previous works have…

We empirically analyze a simple heuristic for large sparse set cover problems. It uses the weighted greedy algorithm as a basic building block. By multiplicative updates of the weights attached to the elements, the greedy solution is…

Considering the set cover problem, by modifying the approach that gives a logarithmic approximation guarantee for the greedy algorithm, we obtain an estimation of the greedy algorithm's accuracy for a particular input. We compare the…

We consider Online Minimum Bipartite Matching under the uniform metric. We show that Randomized Greedy achieves a competitive ratio equal to $(1+1/n) (H_{n+1}-1)$, which matches the lower bound. Comparing with the fact that RG achieves an…

Let $0<\alpha<d$ and $1\leq p<d/\alpha$. We present a proof that for all $f\in W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ both the centered and the uncentered Hardy-Littlewood fractional maximal operator $\mathcal M_\alpha f$ are weakly differentiable and $…

We derive new results for the performance of a simple greedy algorithm for finding large independent sets and matchings in constant degree regular graphs. We show that for $r$-regular graphs with $n$ nodes and girth at least $g$, the…
