Submodular function minimization (SFM) is a fundamental and efficiently solvable problem class in combinatorial optimization with a multitude of applications in various fields. Surprisingly, there is only very little known about constraint…
In this paper, we study the minimax rates and provide an implementable convex algorithm for Poisson inverse problems under weak sparsity and physical constraints. In particular we assume the model $y_i \sim \mbox{Poisson}(Ta_i^{\top}f^*)$…
We propose a novel Stochastic Frank-Wolfe (a.k.a. conditional gradient) algorithm for constrained smooth finite-sum minimization with a generalized linear prediction/structure. This class of problems includes empirical risk minimization…
Scalarization in vector optimization is essentially based on the minimization of Gerstewitz functionals. In this paper, the minimizer sets of Gerstewitz functionals are investigated. Conditions are given under which such a set is nonempty…
We explore computational aspects of maximum likelihood estimation of the mixture proportions of a nonparametric finite mixture model -- a convex optimization problem with old roots in statistics and a key member of the modern data analysis…
We address a large-scale and nonconvex optimization problem, involving an aggregative term. This term can be interpreted as the sum of the contributions of N agents to some common good, with N large. We investigate a relaxation of this…
We classify, according to their computational complexity, integer optimization problems whose constraints and objective functions are polynomials with integer coefficients and the number of variables is fixed. For the optimization of an…
Symmetric submodular functions are an important family of submodular functions capturing many interesting cases including cut functions of graphs and hypergraphs. Maximization of such functions subject to various constraints receives little…
This paper studies the matrix Moment-SOS hierarchy for solving polynomial matrix optimization. Our first result is to show the finite convergence of this hierarchy, if the nondegeneracy condition, strict complementarity condition and second…
In a widely-studied class of multi-parametric optimization problems, the objective value of each solution is an affine function of real-valued parameters. Then, the goal is to provide an optimal solution set, i.e., a set containing an…
A polyhedral convex set optimization problem is given by a set-valued objective mapping from the $n$-dimensional to the $q$-dimensional Euclidean space whose graph is a convex polyhedron. This problem can be seen as the most elementary…
In this paper the necessary conditions of optimality in the form of maximum principle are derived for a very general class of variational problems. This class includes problems with any optimization criteria and constraints that can be…
Higher order necessary conditions for a minimizer of an optimal control problem are generally obtained for systems whose dynamics is continuously differentiable in the state variable. Here, by making use of the notion of set-valued Lie…
This paper considers the linear objective function optimization with respect to a novel system of fuzzy relation equations, where the fuzzy compositions are defined by the minimum t-norm. It is proved that the feasible solution set is…
Optimization problems under affine constraints appear in various areas of machine learning. We consider the task of minimizing a smooth strongly convex function F(x) under the affine constraint Kx=b, with an oracle providing evaluations of…
In this paper we study the problem of minimizing a submodular function $f : 2^V \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ that is guaranteed to have a $k$-sparse minimizer. We give a deterministic algorithm that computes an additive $\epsilon$-approximate…
This article is devoted to the study of lower semicontinuous solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations with convex Hamiltonians in a gradient variable. Such Hamiltonians appear in the optimal control theory. We present a necessary and…
In this paper, the global optimization problem $\min_{y\in S} F(y)$ with $S$ being a hyperinterval in $\Re^N$ and $F(y)$ satisfying the Lipschitz condition with an unknown Lipschitz constant is considered. It is supposed that the function…
We consider variants of the classical Frank-Wolfe algorithm for constrained smooth convex minimization, that instead of access to the standard oracle for minimizing a linear function over the feasible set, have access to an oracle that can…
Conservation laws are usually studied in the context of sufficient regularity conditions imposed on the flux function, usually $C^{2}$ and uniform convexity. Some results are proven with the aid of variational methods and a unique minimizer…
