This paper addresses the problem of sparsity penalized least squares for applications in sparse signal processing, e.g. sparse deconvolution. This paper aims to induce sparsity more strongly than L1 norm regularization, while avoiding…

We consider a minimization problem whose objective function is the sum of a fidelity term, not necessarily convex, and a regularization term defined by a positive regularization parameter $\lambda$ multiple of the $\ell_0$ norm composed…

For high-dimensional sparse parameter estimation problems, Log-Sum Penalty (LSP) regularization effectively reduces the sampling sizes in practice. However, it still lacks theoretical analysis to support the experience from previous…

This work presents a general framework for solving the low rank and/or sparse matrix minimization problems, which may involve multiple non-smooth terms. The Iteratively Reweighted Least Squares (IRLS) method is a fast solver, which smooths…

Sparse optimization refers to an optimization problem involving the zero-norm in objective or constraints. In this paper, nonconvex approximation approaches for sparse optimization have been studied with a unifying point of view in DC…

In this paper we study the problem of recovering a low-rank matrix from a number of random linear measurements that are corrupted by outliers taking arbitrary values. We consider a nonsmooth nonconvex formulation of the problem, in which we…

Conventional algorithms for sparse signal recovery and sparse representation rely on $l_1$-norm regularized variational methods. However, when applied to the reconstruction of $\textit{sparse images}$, i.e., images where only a few pixels…

The minimum sum-of-squares clustering (MSSC), or k-means type clustering, is traditionally considered an unsupervised learning task. In recent years, the use of background knowledge to improve the cluster quality and promote…

In exact sparse optimization problems on Rd (also known as sparsity constrained problems), one looks for solution that have few nonzero components. In this paper, we consider problems where sparsity is exactly measured either by the…

We consider the problem of recovering a lowrank matrix M from a small number of random linear measurements. A popular and useful example of this problem is matrix completion, in which the measurements reveal the values of a subset of the…

In this short paper we bridge two seemingly unrelated sparse approximation topics: continuous sparse coding and low-rank approximations. We show that for a specific choice of continuous dictionary, linear systems with nuclear-norm…

Low-rank regularization (LRR) has been widely applied in various machine learning tasks, but the associated optimization is challenging. Directly optimizing the rank function under constraints is NP-hard in general. To overcome this…

This paper addresses the optimization problem of minimizing non-convex continuous functions, which is relevant in the context of high-dimensional machine learning applications characterized by over-parametrization. We analyze a randomized…

This work considers two popular minimization problems: (i) the minimization of a general convex function $f(\mathbf{X})$ with the domain being positive semi-definite matrices; (ii) the minimization of a general convex function…

Sparse and low rank tensor recovery has emerged as a significant area of research with applications in many fields such as computer vision. However, minimizing the $\ell_0$-norm of a vector or the rank of a matrix is NP-hard. Instead, their…

Two approximation algorithms are proposed for $\ell_1$-regularized sparse rank-1 approximation to higher-order tensors. The algorithms are based on multilinear relaxation and sparsification, which are easily implemented and well scalable.…

$L_1$ regularization is used for finding sparse solutions to an underdetermined linear system. As sparse signals are widely expected in remote sensing, this type of regularization scheme and its extensions have been widely employed in many…

Sparsity inducing regularization is an important part for learning over-complete visual representations. Despite the popularity of $\ell_1$ regularization, in this paper, we investigate the usage of non-convex regularizations in this…

We show that solutions to the popular convex matrix LASSO problem (nuclear-norm--penalized linear least-squares) have low rank under similar assumptions as required by classical low-rank matrix sensing error bounds. Although the purpose of…

We consider the problem of learning a sparse graph under the Laplacian constrained Gaussian graphical models. This problem can be formulated as a penalized maximum likelihood estimation of the Laplacian constrained precision matrix. Like in…
