The viability of a variant of numerical stochastic perturbation theory, where the Langevin equation is replaced by the SMD algorithm, is examined. In particular, the convergence of the process to a unique stationary state is rigorously…

We introduce Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms based on numerical approximations of piecewise-deterministic Markov processes obtained with the framework of splitting schemes. We present unadjusted as well as adjusted algorithms,…

Computing saddle points with a prescribed Morse index on potential energy surfaces is crucial for characterizing transition states for nosie-induced rare transition events in physics and chemistry. Many numerical algorithms for this type of…

A classical method for risk-sensitive nonlinear control is the iterative linear exponential quadratic Gaussian algorithm. We present its convergence analysis from a first-order optimization viewpoint. We identify the objective that the…

Sparse representation with respect to an overcomplete dictionary is often used when regularizing inverse problems in signal and image processing. In recent years, the Convolutional Sparse Coding (CSC) model, in which the dictionary consists…

In this article, we consider the $c$-dispersion problem in a metric space $(X,d)$. Let $P=\{p_{1}, p_{2}, \ldots, p_{n}\}$ be a set of $n$ points in a metric space $(X,d)$. For each point $p \in P$ and $S \subseteq P$, we define…

This paper studies the large-scale subspace clustering (LSSC) problem with million data points. Many popular subspace clustering methods cannot directly handle the LSSC problem although they have been considered as state-of-the-art methods…

Sparse polynomial approximation has become indispensable for approximating smooth, high- or infinite-dimensional functions from limited samples. This is a key task in computational science and engineering, e.g., surrogate modelling in…

This paper considers efficient sampling of simultaneously sparse and correlated (S$\&$C) signals. Such signals arise in various applications in array processing. We propose an implementable sampling architecture for the acquisition of…

We develop a class of algorithms, as variants of the stochastically controlled stochastic gradient (SCSG) methods (Lei and Jordan, 2016), for the smooth non-convex finite-sum optimization problem. Assuming the smoothness of each component,…

Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods are a class of techniques to sample approximately from any sequence of probability distributions using a combination of importance sampling and resampling steps. This paper is concerned with the…

The objective in this paper is to obtain fast converging reinforcement learning algorithms to approximate solutions to the problem of discounted cost optimal stopping in an irreducible, uniformly ergodic Markov chain, evolving on a compact…

The purpose of this note is to highlight and address inaccuracies in the convergence guarantees of SCvx, a nonconvex trajectory optimization algorithm proposed by Mao et al. (arXiv:1804.06539), and make connections to relevant prior work.…

A constrained L1 minimization method is proposed for estimating a sparse inverse covariance matrix based on a sample of $n$ iid $p$-variate random variables. The resulting estimator is shown to enjoy a number of desirable properties. In…

In this paper, we derive rigorously a non-local cross-diffusion system from an interacting stochastic many-particle system in the whole space. The convergence is proved in the sense of probability by introducing an intermediate particle…

In this paper, we propose stochastic structure-preserving schemes to compute the effective diffusivity for particles moving in random flows. We first introduce the motion of particles using the Lagrangian formulation, which is modeled by…

We consider sampled-data Model Predictive Control (MPC) of nonlinear continuous-time control systems. We derive sufficient conditions to guarantee recursive feasibility and asymptotic stability without stabilising costs and/or constraints.…

Compressive Sensing (CS) stipulates that a sparse signal can be recovered from a small number of linear measurements, and that this recovery can be performed efficiently in polynomial time. The framework of model-based compressive sensing…

For a class of stationary regularly varying and weakly dependent time series, we prove the so-called complete convergence result for the corresponding space-time point processes. As an application of our main theorem, we give a simple proof…

Based on the maximum likelihood estimation principle, we derive a collaborative estimation framework that fuses several different estimators and yields a better estimate. Applying it to compressive sensing (CS), we propose a collaborative…
