In this paper, we develop a method for solving the problem of minimizing the $H^2$ error norm between the transfer functions of original and reduced systems on the set of stable matrices and two Euclidean spaces. That is, we develop a…

We propose $\ell_1$ norm regularized quadratic surface support vector machine models for binary classification in supervised learning. We establish their desired theoretical properties, including the existence and uniqueness of the optimal…

Classical trust region methods were designed to solve problems in which function and gradient information are exact. This paper considers the case when there are bounded errors (or noise) in the above computations and proposes a simple…

In this work, we consider a connected network of finitely many agents working cooperatively to solve a min-max problem with convex-concave structure. We propose a decentralised first-order algorithm which can be viewed as a non-trivial…

The problem of symmetric rank-one approximation of symmetric tensors is important in Independent Components Analysis, also known as Blind Source Separation, as well as polynomial optimization. We analyze the symmetric rank-one approximation…

Trust region and cubic regularization methods have demonstrated good performance in small scale non-convex optimization, showing the ability to escape from saddle points. Each iteration of these methods involves computation of gradient,…

Support vector machine (SVM) has proved to be a successful approach for machine learning. Two typical SVM models are the L1-loss model for support vector classification (SVC) and $\epsilon$-L1-loss model for support vector regression (SVR).…

Different unsupervised models for dimensionality reduction like PCA, LLE, Shannon's mapping, tSNE, UMAP, etc. work on different principles, hence, they are difficult to compare on the same ground. Although they are usually good for…

We propose a novel general algorithm LHAC that efficiently uses second-order information to train a class of large-scale l1-regularized problems. Our method executes cheap iterations while achieving fast local convergence rate by exploiting…

Low-rank matrix recovery problems involving high-dimensional and heterogeneous data appear in applications throughout statistics and machine learning. The contribution of this paper is to establish the fundamental limits of recovery for a…

Two-trust-region subproblem (TTRS), which is the minimization of a general quadratic function over the intersection of two full-dimensional ellipsoids, has been the subject of several recent research. In this paper, to solve TTRS, a hybrid…

We develop a unified framework to characterize the power of higher-level algorithms for the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP), such as $k$-consistency, the Sherali-Adams LP hierarchy, and the affine IP hierarchy. As a result,…

Solving l1 regularized optimization problems is common in the fields of computational biology, signal processing and machine learning. Such l1 regularization is utilized to find sparse minimizers of convex functions. A well-known example is…

Matrices with hierarchical low-rank structure, including HODLR and HSS matrices, constitute a versatile tool to develop fast algorithms for addressing large-scale problems. While existing software packages for such matrices often focus on…

Riemannian optimization is concerned with problems, where the independent variable lies on a smooth manifold. There is a number of problems from numerical linear algebra that fall into this category, where the manifold is usually specified…

In this work we describe an Adaptive Regularization using Cubics (ARC) method for large-scale nonconvex unconstrained optimization using Limited-memory Quasi-Newton (LQN) matrices. ARC methods are a relatively new family of optimization…

We study the trust-region subproblem (TRS) of minimizing a nonconvex quadratic function over the unit ball with additional conic constraints. Despite having a nonconvex objective, it is known that the classical TRS and a number of its…

Kernel methods are applied to many problems in pattern recognition, including subspace clustering (SC). That way, nonlinear problems in the input data space become linear in mapped high-dimensional feature space. Thereby, computationally…

Randomized subspace embedding methods have had a great impact on the solution of a linear least squares (LS) problem by reducing its row dimension, leading to a randomized or sketched LS (sLS) problem, and use the solution of the sLS…

We consider a basic computational task of finding $s$ planted rank-1 $m \times n$ matrices in a linear subspace $\mathcal{U} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$ where $\dim(\mathcal{U}) = R \ge s$. The work of Johnston-Lovitz-Vijayaraghavan…
