Spectral-type subspace clustering algorithms have shown excellent performance in many subspace clustering applications. The existing spectral-type subspace clustering algorithms either focus on designing constraints for the reconstruction…

We study a cutting-plane method for semidefinite optimization problems (SDOs), and supply a proof of the method's convergence, under a boundedness assumption. By relating the method's rate of convergence to an initial outer approximation's…

In this paper we propose and discuss different 0-1 linear models in order to solve the cardinality constrained portfolio problem by using factor models. Factor models are used to build portfolios to track indexes, together with other…

Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) is a fundamental algorithmic problem that appears in many areas of Computer Science. It can be equivalently stated as computing a homomorphism $\mbox{$\bR \rightarrow \bGamma$}$ between two relational…

The Computational Singular Perturbation (CSP) method of Lam and Goussis is an iterative method to reduce the dimensionality of systems of ordinary differential equations with multiple time scales. In [J. Nonlin. Sci., to appear], the…

CG:SHOP is an annual geometric optimization challenge and the 2022 edition proposed the problem of coloring a certain geometric graph defined by line segments. Surprisingly, the top three teams used the same technique, called conflict…

We propose a randomized method for solving linear programs with a large number of columns but a relatively small number of constraints. Since enumerating all the columns is usually unrealistic, such linear programs are commonly solved by…

Identifying the underlying models in a set of data points contaminated by noise and outliers, leads to a highly complex multi-model fitting problem. This problem can be posed as a clustering problem by the projection of higher order…

In unsplittable network flow problems, certain nodes must satisfy a combinatorial requirement that the incoming arc flows cannot be split or merged when routed through outgoing arcs. This so-called "no-split no-merge" requirement arises in…

The bipartite graph structure has shown its promising ability in facilitating the subspace clustering and spectral clustering algorithms for large-scale datasets. To avoid the post-processing via k-means during the bipartite graph…

We consider integer programming problems with bounded general-integer variables belonging to the general class of network flow problems. For those, we computationally investigate the effect on mixed-integer linear programming (MIP) solvers…

We consider the max-cut and max-$k$-cut problems under graph-based constraints. Our approach can handle any constraint specified using monadic second-order (MSO) logic on graphs of constant treewidth. We give a $\frac{1}{2}$-approximation…

We study an extension of the classical graph cut problem, wherein we replace the modular (sum of edge weights) cost function by a submodular set function defined over graph edges. Special cases of this problem have appeared in different…

In connection with the needs of solving optimization problems, the development of conditional minimization methods with convenient numerical implementation continues to attract the attention of mathematicians. In this monograph we propose…

This paper introduces the Bi-linear consensus Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (Bi-cADMM), aimed at solving large-scale regularized Sparse Machine Learning (SML) problems defined over a network of computational nodes.…

The problem of biclustering consists of the simultaneous clustering of rows and columns of a matrix such that each of the submatrices induced by a pair of row and column clusters is as uniform as possible. In this paper we approximate the…

We study the computational complexity of counting constraint satisfaction problems (#CSPs) whose constraints assign complex numbers to Boolean inputs when the corresponding constraint hypergraphs are acyclic. These problems are called…

In the Minimum Common String Partition Problem (MCSP), we are given two strings on input, and we want to partition both into the same collection of substrings, minimizing the number of the substrings in the partition. This combinatorial…

In this paper, we present decomposition techniques for solving large-scale instances of the security-constrained optimal power flow (SCOPF) problem with primary response. Specifically, under each contingency state, we require that the nodal…

In the $\{-1,0,1\}$-APSP problem the goal is to compute all-pairs shortest paths (APSP) on a directed graph whose edge weights are all from $\{-1,0,1\}$. In the (min,max)-product problem the input is two $n\times n$ matrices $A$ and $B$,…
