We study the convergence of the Augmented Decomposition Algorithm (ADA) proposed in [32] for solving multi-block separable convex minimization problems subject to linear constraints. We show that the global convergence rate of the exact ADA…

We present novel algorithms for simulation optimization using random directions stochastic approximation (RDSA). These include first-order (gradient) as well as second-order (Newton) schemes. We incorporate both continuous-valued as well as…

Topological data analysis (TDA) has emerged as one of the most promising techniques to reconstruct the unknown shapes of high-dimensional spaces from observed data samples. TDA, thus, yields key shape descriptors in the form of persistent…

In scientific computation, it is often necessary to calculate higher-order derivatives of a function. Currently, two primary methods for higher-order automatic differentiation exist: symbolic differentiation and algorithmic automatic…

We propose a new algorithm for minimizing regularized empirical loss: Stochastic Dual Newton Ascent (SDNA). Our method is dual in nature: in each iteration we update a random subset of the dual variables. However, unlike existing methods…

The control algebraic Riccati equation is studied for a class of systems with unbounded control and observation operators. Using a dichotomy property of the associated Hamiltonian operator matrix, two invariant graph subspaces are…

We study the problem of minimizing the sum of potentially non-differentiable convex cost functions with partially overlapping dependences in an asynchronous manner, where communication in the network is not coordinated. We study the…

The Douglas--Rachford algorithm is a popular algorithm for solving both convex and nonconvex feasibility problems. While its behaviour is settled in the convex inconsistent case, the general nonconvex inconsistent case is far from being…

This work provides simple algorithms for multi-class (and multi-label) prediction in settings where both the number of examples n and the data dimension d are relatively large. These robust and parameter free algorithms are essentially…

When synthesizing multi-source high-dimensional data, a key objective is to extract low-dimensional representations that effectively approximate the original features across different sources. Such representations facilitate the discovery…

We consider the least-squares approximation of a matrix C in the set of doubly stochastic matrices with the same sparsity pattern as C. Our approach is based on applying the well-known Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) to a…

The approximate solution of large-scale algebraic Riccati equations is considered. We are interested in approximate solutions which yield a Riccati residual matrix of a particular small rank. It is assumed that such approximate solutions…

We develop a third-order conservative semi-Lagrangian discontinuous Galerkin (SLDG) scheme for solving linear transport equations on curvilinear unstructured triangular meshes, tailored for complex geometries. To ensure third-order spatial…

This paper brings explicit considerations of distributed computing architectures and data structures into the rigorous design of Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods. A theoretical result established recently by the authors shows that…

For numerous reasons there raises a need for dimension reduction that preserves certain characteristics of data. In this work we focus on data coming from a mixture of Gaussian distributions and we propose a method that preserves…

We develop structure preserving schemes for a class of nonlinear mobility continuity equation. When the mobility is a concave function, this equation admits a form of gradient flow with respect to a Wasserstein-like transport metric. Our…

We introduce a method for sparsifying distributed algorithms and exhibit how it leads to improvements that go past known barriers in two algorithmic settings of large-scale graph processing: Massively Parallel Computation (MPC), and Local…

Distributed algorithms and theories are called for in this era of big data. Under weaker local signal-to-noise ratios, we improve upon the celebrated one-round distributed principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm designed in the spirit…

We are concerned with linear redundancy storage schemes regarding their ability to provide concurrent (local) recovery of multiple data objects. This paper initiates a study of such systems within the classical coding theory. We show how we…

We generalise the concept of duality to systems of ordinary difference equations (or maps). We propose a procedure to construct a chain of systems of equations which are dual, with respect to an integral $H$, to the given system, by…
