We consider the differentiation of the value function for parametric optimization problems. Such problems are ubiquitous in Machine Learning applications such as structured support vector machines, matrix factorization and min-min or…
Solutions of the Dirichlet and Robin boundary value problems for the multi-term variable-distributed order diffusion equation are studied. A priori estimates for the corresponding differential and difference problems are obtained by using…
Partial differential equations (PDEs) with Dirichlet boundary conditions defined on boundaries with simple geometry have been succesfuly treated using sigmoidal multilayer perceptrons in previous works. This article deals with the case of…
In this paper, we prove the existence of classical solutions to second boundary value prob- lems for generated prescribed Jacobian equations, as recently developed by the second author, thereby obtaining extensions of classical solvability…
A natural way to model dynamic systems under uncertainty is to use fuzzy boundary value problems (FBVPs) and related uncertain systems. In this paper we use fuzzy Laplace transform to find the solution of two-point boundary value under…
We consider the problem of minimizing the sum of a convex function and a convex function composed with an injective linear mapping. For such problems, subject to a coercivity condition at fixed points of the corresponding Picard iteration,…
Variational Bayes (VB) has become a widely-used tool for Bayesian inference in statistics and machine learning. Nonetheless, the development of the existing VB algorithms is so far generally restricted to the case where the variational…
The Immersed Boundary (IB) method of Peskin (J. Comput. Phys., 1977) is useful for problems involving fluid-structure interactions or complex geometries. By making use of a regular grid that is independent of the geometry, the IB framework…
We address the solution of time-varying optimization problems characterized by the sum of a time-varying strongly convex function and a time-invariant nonsmooth convex function. We design an online algorithmic framework based on…
Although originally designed and analyzed for convex problems, the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) and its close relatives, Douglas-Rachford splitting (DRS) and Peaceman-Rachford splitting (PRS), have been observed to…
We consider the problem of non-smooth convex optimization with linear equality constraints, where the objective function is only accessible through its proximal operator. This problem arises in many different fields such as statistical…
We present a unified treatment of the abstract problem of finding the best approximation between a cone and spheres in the image of affine transformations. Prominent instances of this problem are phase retrieval and source localization. The…
Douglas-Rachford splitting and its equivalent dual formulation ADMM are widely used iterative methods in composite optimization problems arising in control and machine learning applications. The performance of these algorithms depends on…
We introduce a refined immersed boundary (IB) methodology that is better-than-first-order accurate in practice, while preserving key properties of "continuous-forcing" IB approaches that retain a singular source term in the governing…
Under this method second order \textbf{partial differential equations (PDE's)} can be reduce to first order PDE's, simplifying the Initial value problem \textbf{IVP} or Border value Problem \textbf{BVP} for most cases of second-order…
We propose a method for the treatment of two--point boundary value problems given by nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The approach leads to sequences of roots of Hankel determinants that converge rapidly towards the unknown…
We study system design problems stated as parameterized stochastic programs with a chance-constraint set. We adopt a Bayesian approach that requires the computation of a posterior predictive integral which is usually intractable. In…
A first-order ordinary differential equation, solved with respect to derivative, is considered. It's right-hand side is defined and continuous on the set, consisting of a connected open subset of a two-dimensional Euclidean space and a part…
Level-set methods for convex optimization are predicated on the idea that certain problems can be parameterized so that their solutions can be recovered as the limiting process of a root-finding procedure. This idea emerges time and again…
In this work we obtain sufficient conditions for the existence of bounded solutions of a resonant multi-point second-order boundary value problem, with a fully differential equation. The noninvertibility of the linear part is overcome by a…
