Typical behavior of the linear programming (LP) problem is studied as a relaxation of the minimum vertex cover, a type of integer programming (IP) problem. A lattice-gas model on the Erd\"os-R\'enyi random graphs of $\alpha$-uniform…

The standard quadratic optimization problem (StQP), i.e. the problem of minimizing a quadratic form $\bold x^TQ\bold x$ on the standard simplex $\{\bold x\ge\bold 0: \bold x^T\bold e=1\}$, is studied. The StQP arises in numerous…

In the context of sparse recovery, it is known that most of existing regularizers such as $\ell_1$ suffer from some bias incurred by some leading entries (in magnitude) of the associated vector. To neutralize this bias, we propose a class…

Low-rank optimization problems with sparse simplex constraints involve variables that must satisfy nonnegativity, sparsity, and sum-to-1 conditions, making their optimization particularly challenging due to the interplay between low-rank…

In this paper, we consider the sparse least squares regression problem with probabilistic simplex constraint. Due to the probabilistic simplex constraint, one could not apply the L1 regularization to the considered regression model. To find…

The Laplacian-constrained Gaussian Markov Random Field (LGMRF) is a common multivariate statistical model for learning a weighted sparse dependency graph from given data. This graph learning problem can be formulated as a maximum likelihood…

We provide exact and approximation methods for solving a geometric relaxation of the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) that occurs in curve reconstruction: for a given set of vertices in the plane, the problem Minimum Perimeter Polygon (MPP)…

The convergence of expectation-maximization (EM)-based algorithms typically requires continuity of the likelihood function with respect to all the unknown parameters (optimization variables). The requirement is not met when parameters…

The Minimum Set Cover Problem (MSCP) is a classical NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem with numerous applications in science and engineering. Although a wide range of exact, approximate, and metaheuristic approaches have been…

The paper provides a new approach to the determination of a single state value for stochastic output feedback problems using paradigms from Model Predictive Control, particularly the distinction between open-loop and closed-loop control and…

We consider and analyze applying a spectral inverse iteration algorithm and its subspace iteration variant for computing eigenpairs of an elliptic operator with random coefficients. With these iterative algorithms the solution is sought…

We consider machine learning techniques to develop low-latency approximate solutions to a class of inverse problems. More precisely, we use a probabilistic approach for the problem of recovering sparse stochastic signals that are members of…

We consider multi-value expansion planning (MEP), a general bilevel optimization model in which a planner optimizes arbitrary functions of the dispatch outcome in the presence of a partially controllable, competitive electricity market. The…

For the problem of high-dimensional sparse linear regression, it is known that an $\ell_0$-based estimator can achieve a $1/n$ "fast" rate on the prediction error without any conditions on the design matrix, whereas in absence of…

Given $n$ points in a $d$ dimensional Euclidean space, the Minimum Enclosing Ball (MEB) problem is to find the ball with the smallest radius which contains all $n$ points. We give a $O(nd\Qcal/\sqrt{\epsilon})$ approximation algorithm for…

We introduce Tempered Geodesic Markov Chain Monte Carlo (TG-MCMC) algorithm for initializing pose graph optimization problems, arising in various scenarios such as SFM (structure from motion) or SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping).…

Moving horizon estimation (MHE) is a widely studied state estimation approach in several practical applications. In the MHE problem, the state estimates are obtained via the solution of an approximated nonlinear optimization problem.…

In this work we propose a nonconvex two-stage \underline{s}tochastic \underline{a}lternating \underline{m}inimizing (SAM) method for sparse phase retrieval. The proposed algorithm is guaranteed to have an exact recovery from $O(s\log n)$…

We address the sparse signal recovery problem in the context of multiple measurement vectors (MMV) when elements in each nonzero row of the solution matrix are temporally correlated. Existing algorithms do not consider such temporal…

We consider the stochastic generalized Nash equilibrium problem (SGNEP) with joint feasibility constraints and expected-value cost functions. We propose a distributed stochastic projected reflected gradient algorithm and show its almost…
