This paper addresses the problem of efficiently classifying high-dimensional data over decentralized networks. Penalized support vector machines (SVMs) are widely used for high-dimensional classification tasks. However, the double…

Sparse covariance matrices play crucial roles by encoding the interdependencies between variables in numerous fields such as genetics and neuroscience. Despite substantial studies on sparse covariance matrices, existing methods face several…

Adversarial training can be used to learn models that are robust against perturbations. For linear models, it can be formulated as a convex optimization problem. Compared to methods proposed in the context of deep learning, leveraging the…

The alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is widely used in solving structured convex optimization problems due to its superior practical performance. On the theoretical side however, a counterexample was shown in [7]…

Efficient estimation of high-dimensional matrices-including covariance and precision matrices-is a cornerstone of modern multivariate statistics. Most existing studies have focused primarily on the theoretical properties of the estimators…

Joint sparsity regularization in multi-task learning has attracted much attention in recent years. The traditional convex formulation employs the group Lasso relaxation to achieve joint sparsity across tasks. Although this approach leads to…

The alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is a common optimization tool for solving constrained and non-differentiable problems. We provide an empirical study of the practical performance of ADMM on several nonconvex…

The matrix low-rank approximation problem with additional convex constraints can find many applications and has been extensively studied before. However, this problem is shown to be nonconvex and NP-hard; most of the existing solutions are…

We consider a class of distributed optimization problem where the objective function consists of a sum of strongly convex and smooth functions and a (possibly nonsmooth) convex regularizer. A multi-agent network is assumed, where each agent…
