Most of existing clustering algorithms are proposed without considering the selection bias in data. In many real applications, however, one cannot guarantee the data is unbiased. Selection bias might bring the unexpected correlation between…

We derive a new margin-based regularization formulation, termed multi-margin regularization (MMR), for deep neural networks (DNNs). The MMR is inspired by principles that were applied in margin analysis of shallow linear classifiers, e.g.,…

Weight decay is often used to ensure good generalization in the training practice of deep neural networks with batch normalization (BN-DNNs), where some convolution layers are invariant to weight rescaling due to the normalization. In this…

A formal link between regression and classification has been tenuous. Even though the margin maximization term $\|w\|$ is used in support vector regression, it has at best been justified as a regularizer. We show that a regression problem…

Sparse logistic regression, as an effective tool of classification, has been developed tremendously in recent two decades, from its origination the $\ell_1$-regularized version to the sparsity constrained models. This paper is carried out…

Computing the proximal operator of the $\ell_\infty$ norm, $\textbf{prox}_{\alpha ||\cdot||_\infty}(\mathbf{x})$, generally requires a sort of the input data, or at least a partial sort similar to quicksort. In order to avoid using a sort,…

Sparse learning has recently received increasing attention in many areas including machine learning, statistics, and applied mathematics. The mixed-norm regularization based on the l1q norm with q>1 is attractive in many applications of…

Regularization has long been utilized to learn sparsity in deep neural network pruning. However, its role is mainly explored in the small penalty strength regime. In this work, we extend its application to a new scenario where the…

We introduce a proximal version of dual coordinate ascent method. We demonstrate how the derived algorithmic framework can be used for numerous regularized loss minimization problems, including $\ell_1$ regularization and structured output…

We provide a statistical analysis of regularization-based continual learning on a sequence of linear regression tasks, with emphasis on how different regularization terms affect the model performance. We first derive the convergence rate…

Weight decay is one of the most widely used forms of regularization in deep learning, and has been shown to improve generalization and robustness. The optimization objective driving weight decay is a sum of losses plus a term proportional…

We analyze an Iteratively Re-weighted Least Squares (IRLS) algorithm for promoting l1-minimization in sparse and compressible vector recovery. We prove its convergence and we estimate its local rate. We show how the algorithm can be…

The main principle of stacked generalization (or Stacking) is using a second-level generalizer to combine the outputs of base classifiers in an ensemble. In this paper, we investigate different combination types under the stacking…

Functions of interest are often smooth and sparse in some sense, and both priors should be taken into account when interpolating sampled data. Classical linear interpolation methods are effective under strong regularity assumptions, but…

We consider the decomposition of a signal over an overcomplete set of vectors. Minimization of the $\ell^1$-norm of the coefficient vector can often retrieve the sparsest solution (so-called "$\ell^1/\ell^0$-equivalence"), a generally…

In this paper we look at a well known linear inverse problem that is one of the mathematical cornerstones of the compressed sensing field. In seminal works \cite{CRT,DOnoho06CS} $\ell_1$ optimization and its success when used for recovering…

Deep neural networks have had an enormous impact on image analysis. State-of-the-art training methods, based on weight decay and DropOut, result in impressive performance when a very large training set is available. However, they tend to…

We propose a sparse regularization model for inversion of incomplete Fourier transforms and apply it to seismic wavefield modeling. The objective function of the proposed model employs the Moreau envelope of the $\ell_0$ norm under a tight…

Nowadays, l1 penalized likelihood has absorbed a high amount of consideration due to its simplicity and well developed theoretical properties. This method is known as a reliable method in order to apply in a broad range of applications…

Matrix completion focuses on recovering a matrix from a small subset of its observed elements, and has already gained cumulative attention in computer vision. Many previous approaches formulate this issue as a low-rank matrix approximation…
