A structured variable selection problem is considered in which the covariates, divided into predefined groups, activate according to sparse patterns with few nonzero entries per group. Capitalizing on the concept of atomic norm, a composite…

This paper investigates the problem of recovering the support of structured signals via adaptive compressive sensing. We examine several classes of structured support sets, and characterize the fundamental limits of accurately recovering…

This paper proposes a unified framework for designing robustness in optimization under uncertainty using gauge sets, convex sets that generalize distance and capture how distributions may deviate from a nominal reference. Representing…

We propose a unified fractional regularization framework for sparse signal recovery based on the $\ell_1/\ell_p^q$ model. This model generalizes several widely used sparsity-promoting regularizers and provides additional flexibility through…

An approach to obtaining a parsimonious polynomial model from time series is proposed. An optimal minimal nonuniform time series embedding schema is used to obtain a time delay kernel. This scheme recursively optimizes an objective…

A noisy underdetermined system of linear equations is considered in which a sparse vector (a vector with a few nonzero elements) is subject to measurement. The measurement matrix elements are drawn from a Gaussian distribution. We study the…

We study iterative regularization for linear models, when the bias is convex but not necessarily strongly convex. We characterize the stability properties of a primal-dual gradient based approach, analyzing its convergence in the presence…

Learning sparse models from data is an important task in all those frameworks where relevant information should be identified within a large dataset. This can be achieved by formulating and solving suitable sparsity promoting optimization…

Reconstructing complex networks from measurable data is a fundamental problem for understanding and controlling collective dynamics of complex networked systems. However, a significant challenge arises when we attempt to decode structural…

This paper deals with sparse phase retrieval, i.e., the problem of estimating a vector from quadratic measurements under the assumption that few components are nonzero. In particular, we consider the problem of finding the sparsest vector…

Sparsity-based methods are widely used in machine learning, statistics, and signal processing. There is now a rich class of structured sparsity approaches that expand the modeling power of the sparsity paradigm and incorporate constraints…

This work studies the Tensor Robust Principal Component Analysis (TRPCA) problem, which aims to exactly recover the low-rank and sparse components from their sum. Our model is motivated by the recently proposed linear transforms based…

The affine inverse eigenvalue problem consists of identifying a real symmetric matrix with a prescribed set of eigenvalues in an affine space. Due to its ubiquity in applications, various instances of the problem have been widely studied in…

We introduce a new class of semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxations for sparse box-constrained quadratic programs, obtained by a novel integration of the Reformulation Linearization Technique into standard SDP relaxations while…

In exact sparse optimization problems on Rd (also known as sparsity constrained problems), one looks for solution that have few nonzero components. In this paper, we consider problems where sparsity is exactly measured either by the…

We give a novel formal theoretical framework for unsupervised learning with two distinctive characteristics. First, it does not assume any generative model and based on a worst-case performance metric. Second, it is comparative, namely…

Compressive sensing has shown significant promise in biomedical fields. It reconstructs a signal from sub-Nyquist random linear measurements. Classical methods only exploit the sparsity in one domain. A lot of biomedical signals have…

Sparse additive modeling is a class of effective methods for performing high-dimensional nonparametric regression. In this work we show how shape constraints such as convexity/concavity and their extensions, can be integrated into additive…

The proximal problem for structured penalties obtained via convex relaxations of submodular functions is known to be equivalent to minimizing separable convex functions over the corresponding submodular polyhedra. In this paper, we reveal a…

We analyze a practical algorithm for sparse PCA on incomplete and noisy data under a general non-random sampling scheme. The algorithm is based on a semidefinite relaxation of the $\ell_1$-regularized PCA problem. We provide theoretical…
