Matrix rank minimization problem is in general NP-hard. The nuclear norm is used to substitute the rank function in many recent studies. Nevertheless, the nuclear norm approximation adds all singular values together and the approximation…

One of the widespread solutions for non-rigid tracking has a nested-loop structure: with Gauss-Newton to minimize a tracking objective in the outer loop, and Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient (PCG) to solve a sparse linear system in the…

Most state of the art deep neural networks are overparameterized and exhibit a high computational cost. A straightforward approach to this problem is to replace convolutional kernels with its low-rank tensor approximations, whereas the…

Alternating gradient-descent-ascent (AltGDA) is an optimization algorithm that has been widely used for model training in various machine learning applications, which aims to solve a nonconvex minimax optimization problem. However, the…

In this paper, we develop a variant of the well-known Gauss-Newton (GN) method to solve a class of nonconvex optimization problems involving low-rank matrix variables. As opposed to the standard GN method, our algorithm allows one to handle…

In a recent paper (J. Chem. Theory. Comput., 2017, 13, 180-190) we proposed the Truncated Conjugate Gradient (TCG) approach to compute the polarization energy and forces in polarizable molecular simulations. The method consists in…

Non-conjugate Gaussian processes (NCGPs) define a flexible probabilistic framework to model categorical, ordinal and continuous data, and are widely used in practice. However, exact inference in NCGPs is prohibitively expensive for large…

We propose a computer-assisted approach to the analysis of the worst-case convergence of nonlinear conjugate gradient methods (NCGMs). Those methods are known for their generally good empirical performances for large-scale optimization,…

To achieve greater accuracy, hypergraph matching algorithms require exponential increases in computational resources. Recent kd-tree-based approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) methods, despite the sparsity of their compatibility tensor, still…

Numerous applications in data mining and machine learning require recovering a matrix of minimal rank. Robust principal component analysis (RPCA) is a general framework for handling this kind of problems. Nuclear norm based convex surrogate…

In applications, a substantial number of problems can be formulated as non-linear least squares problems over smooth varieties. Unlike the usual least squares problem over a Euclidean space, the non-linear least squares problem over a…

In this paper, we discuss the acceleration of the regularized alternating least square (RALS) algorithm for tensor approximation. We propose a fast iterative method using a Aitken-Stefensen like updates for the regularized algorithm.…

In this paper, we generalize the well-known Nesterov's accelerated gradient (AG) method, originally designed for convex smooth optimization, to solve nonconvex and possibly stochastic optimization problems. We demonstrate that by properly…

We present a GPU implementation of Algorithm NCL, an augmented Lagrangian method for solving large-scale and degenerate nonlinear programs. Although interior-point methods and sequential quadratic programming are widely used for solving…

We consider the problem of minimizing the sum of two convex functions: one is smooth and given by a gradient oracle, and the other is separable over blocks of coordinates and has a simple known structure over each block. We develop an…

In this paper, based on the limited memory techniques and subspace minimization conjugate gradient (SMCG) methods, a regularized limited memory subspace minimization conjugate gradient method is proposed, which contains two types of…

An increasing number of emerging applications in data science and engineering are based on multidimensional and structurally rich data. The irregularities, however, of high-dimensional data often compromise the effectiveness of standard…

We show how to develop sampling-based alternating least squares (ALS) algorithms for decomposition of tensors into any tensor network (TN) format. Provided the TN format satisfies certain mild assumptions, resulting algorithms will have…

In this paper we consider finding a second-order stationary point (SOSP) of nonconvex equality constrained optimization when a nearly feasible point is known. In particular, we first propose a new Newton-CG method for finding an approximate…

Tensor decomposition, a collection of factorization techniques for multidimensional arrays, are among the most general and powerful tools for scientific analysis. However, because of their increasing size, today's data sets require more…
