For the sparsity-rank-aware least squares estimations, the LiGME (Linearly involved Generalized Moreau Enhanced) model was established recently in [Abe, Yamagishi, Yamada, 2020] to use certain nonconvex enhancements of linearly involved…

This paper presents a novel framework for nonconvex enhancement of minimization induced (MI) penalties while preserving the overall convexity of associated regularization models. MI penalties enable the adaptation to certain signal…

In this paper, we introduce an overall convex model incorporating a nonconvex regularizer. The proposed model is designed by extending the least squares term in the constrained LiGME model [Yata Yamagishi Yamada 2022] to fairly general…

For a regularized least squares estimation of discrete-valued signals, we propose a Linearly involved Generalized Moreau Enhanced (LiGME) regularizer, as a nonconvex regularizer, of designated isolated minimizers. The proposed regularizer…

We present an efficient mathematical framework based on the linearly-involved Moreau-enhanced-over-subspace (LiMES) model. Two concrete applications are considered: sparse modeling and robust regression. The popular minimax concave (MC)…

High-dimensional data pose challenges in statistical learning and modeling. Sometimes the predictors can be naturally grouped where pursuing the between-group sparsity is desired. Collinearity may occur in real-world high-dimensional…

Estimation in generalized linear models (GLM) is complicated by the presence of constraints. One can handle constraints by maximizing a penalized log-likelihood. Penalties such as the lasso are effective in high dimensions, but often lead…

The augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) is one of the most useful methods for constrained optimization. Its convergence has been well established under convexity assumptions or smoothness assumptions, or under both assumptions. ALM may…

For the constrained LiGME model, a nonconvexly regularized least squares estimation model, we present an iterative algorithm of guaranteed convergence to its globally optimal solution. The proposed algorithm can deal with two different…

We propose a nonconvexly regularized convex model for linear regression problems under non-Gaussian noise. The cost function of the proposed model is designed with a possibly non-quadratic data fidelity term and a nonconvex regularizer via…

This work studies the problem of sparse signal recovery with automatic grouping of variables. To this end, we investigate sorted nonsmooth penalties as a regularization approach for generalized linear models. We focus on a family of sorted…

In this paper, we consider the problem of recovering a sparse signal based on penalized least squares formulations. We develop a novel algorithm of primal-dual active set type for a class of nonconvex sparsity-promoting penalties, including…

We study the problem of learning high dimensional regression models regularized by a structured-sparsity-inducing penalty that encodes prior structural information on either input or output sides. We consider two widely adopted types of…

This paper considers stochastic optimization problems with weakly convex objective and constraint functions. We propose Prox-PEP, a proximal method equipped with quadratic subproblems. To handle nonlinear equality constraints, we employ an…

In this paper we present an efficient active-set method for the solution of convex quadratic programming problems with general piecewise-linear terms in the objective, with applications to sparse approximations and risk-minimization. The…

We consider the problem of learning a high-dimensional graphical model in which certain hub nodes are highly-connected to many other nodes. Many authors have studied the use of an l1 penalty in order to learn a sparse graph in…

Recently it has become popular to learn sparse Gaussian graphical models (GGMs) by imposing l1 or group l1,2 penalties on the elements of the precision matrix. Thispenalized likelihood approach results in a tractable convex optimization…

Sparse Gaussian graphical models characterize sparse dependence relationships between random variables in a network. To estimate multiple related Gaussian graphical models on the same set of variables, we formulate a hierarchical model,…

The topic of recovery of a structured model given a small number of linear observations has been well-studied in recent years. Examples include recovering sparse or group-sparse vectors, low-rank matrices, and the sum of sparse and low-rank…

The paper introduces a penalized matrix estimation procedure aiming at solutions which are sparse and low-rank at the same time. Such structures arise in the context of social networks or protein interactions where underlying graphs have…
