A regularization algorithm (AR1pGN) for unconstrained nonlinear minimization is considered, which uses a model consisting of a Taylor expansion of arbitrary degree and regularization term involving a possibly non-smooth norm. It is shown…

The pressing need to reduce the capacity of deep neural networks has stimulated the development of network dilution methods and their analysis. While the ability of $L_1$ and $L_0$ regularization to encourage sparsity is often mentioned,…

Sparse optimization has seen its advances in recent decades. For scenarios where the true sparsity is unknown, regularization turns out to be a promising solution. Two popular non-convex regularizations are the so-called $L_0$ norm and…

Regularizing Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) is essential for improving generalizability and preventing overfitting. Fixed penalty methods, though common, lack adaptability and suffer from hyperparameter sensitivity. In this paper, we propose a…

In this work, we introduce a novel approach to regularization in multivariable regression problems. Our regularizer, called DLoss, penalises differences between the model's derivatives and derivatives of the data generating function as…

LASSO regularization is a popular regression tool to enhance the prediction accuracy of statistical models by performing variable selection through the $\ell_1$ penalty, initially formulated for the linear model and its variants. In this…

Variational sparsity regularization based on $\ell^1$-norms and other nonlinear functionals has gained enormous attention recently, both with respect to its applications and its mathematical analysis. A focus in regularization theory has…

In this paper we introduce a nonuniform sparsity model and analyze the performance of an optimized weighted $\ell_1$ minimization over that sparsity model. In particular, we focus on a model where the entries of the unknown vector fall into…

A data filtering method for cluster analysis is proposed, based on minimizing a least squares function with a weighted $\ell_0$-norm penalty. To overcome the discontinuity of the objective function, smooth non-convex functions are employed…

We apply the OSCAR (octagonal selection and clustering algorithms for regression) in recovering group-sparse matrices (two-dimensional---2D---arrays) from compressive measurements. We propose a 2D version of OSCAR (2OSCAR) consisting of the…

Our focus is on the stable approximate solution of linear operator equations based on noisy data by using $\ell^1$-regularization as a sparsity-enforcing version of Tikhonov regularization. We summarize recent results on situations where…

We present a new algorithm and the corresponding convergence analysis for the regularization of linear inverse problems with sparsity constraints, applied to a new generalized sparsity promoting functional. The algorithm is based on the…

This paper studies the long-existing idea of adding a nice smooth function to "smooth" a non-differentiable objective function in the context of sparse optimization, in particular, the minimization of $||x||_1+1/(2\alpha)||x||_2^2$, where…

The couplings in a sparse asymmetric, asynchronous Ising network are reconstructed using an exact learning algorithm. L$_1$ regularization is used to remove the spurious weak connections that would otherwise be found by simply minimizing…

In this work we present a novel optimization strategy for image reconstruction tasks under analysis-based image regularization, which promotes sparse and/or low-rank solutions in some learned transform domain. We parameterize such…

Despite many applications, dimensionality reduction in the $\ell_1$-norm is much less understood than in the Euclidean norm. We give two new oblivious dimensionality reduction techniques for the $\ell_1$-norm which improve exponentially…

Robust regression models in the presence of outliers have significant practical relevance in areas such as signal processing, financial econometrics, and energy management. Many existing robust regression methods, either grounded in…

Least squares kernel based methods have been widely used in regression problems due to the simple implementation and good generalization performance. Among them, least squares support vector regression (LS-SVR) and extreme learning machine…

In the field of machine learning there is a growing interest towards more robust and generalizable algorithms. This is for example important to bridge the gap between the environment in which the training data was collected and the…

Using weight decay to penalize the L2 norms of weights in neural networks has been a standard training practice to regularize the complexity of networks. In this paper, we show that a family of regularizers, including weight decay, is…
