Submodular maximization has been widely studied over the past decades, mostly because of its numerous applications in real-world problems. It is well known that the standard greedy algorithm guarantees a worst-case approximation factor of…

We study sparse approximation by greedy algorithms. We prove the Lebesgue-type inequalities for the Weak Chebyshev Greedy Algorithm (WCGA), a generalization of the Weak Orthogonal Matching Pursuit to the case of a Banach space. The main…

For two countable ordinals $\alpha$ and $\beta$, a basis of a Banach space $X$ is said to be $(\alpha, \beta)$-quasi-greedy if it is 1) quasi-greedy, 2) $\mathcal{S}_\alpha$-unconditional but not $\mathcal{S}_{\alpha+1}$-unconditional, and…

In this paper we study greedy approximation in Banach spaces. We discuss a modification of the Weak Chebyshev Greedy Algorithm, in which steps of the algorithm can be executed imprecisely. Such inaccuracies are represented by both absolute…

We show that the Lindenstrauss basic sequence in l_1 may be used to construct a conditional quasi-greedy basis of l_1, thus answering a question of Wojtaszczyk. We further show that the sequence of coefficient functionals for this basis is…

We shall present a new characterization of greedy bases and 1-greedy bases in terms of certain functionals defined using distances to one dimensional subspaces generated by the basis. We also introduce a new property that unifies the…

Motivated by the change-making problem, we extend the notion of greediness to sets of positive integers not containing the element $1$, and from there to numerical semigroups. We provide an algorithm to determine if a given set (not…

Greedy algorithms are widely used for problems in machine learning such as feature selection and set function optimization. Unfortunately, for large datasets, the running time of even greedy algorithms can be quite high. This is because for…

We show that a (semi-normalized) basis in a Banach space is quasi-greedy with quasi-greedy constant equal to 1 if and only if it is unconditional with suppression-unconditional constant equal to 1.

We consider learning a convex combination of basis models, and present some new theoretical and empirical results that demonstrate the effectiveness of a greedy approach. Theoretically, we first consider whether we can use linear, instead…

Sparse approximation is important in many applications because of concise form of an approximant and good accuracy guarantees. The theory of compressed sensing, which proved to be very useful in the image processing and data sciences, is…

Greedy algorithms are popular in compressive sensing for their high computational efficiency. But the performance of current greedy algorithms can be degenerated seriously by noise (both multiplicative noise and additive noise). A robust…

We consider the problem of approximating a given element $f$ from a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ by means of greedy algorithms and the application of such procedures to the regression problem in statistical learning theory. We improve on the…

In nonlinear greedy approximation theory, bidemocratic bases have traditionally played the role of dualizing democratic, greedy, quasi-greedy, or almost greedy bases. In this article we shift the viewpoint and study them for their own sake,…

In many prediction problems, it is not uncommon that the number of variables used to construct a forecast is of the same order of magnitude as the sample size, if not larger. We then face the problem of constructing a prediction in the…

In this paper we prove that there exists a function which $f(x)$ belongs to $L^1[0,1]$ such that a greedy algorithm with regard to the Walsh subsystem does not converge to $f(x)$ in $L^1[0,1]$ norm, i.e. the Walsh subsystem $\{W_{n_k}\}$ is…

The general theory of greedy approximation with respect to arbitrary dictionaries is well developed in the case of real Banach spaces. Recently, some of results proved for the Weak Chebyshev Greedy Algorithm (WCGA) in the case of real…

This paper proposes a new algorithm for multiple sparse regression in high dimensions, where the task is to estimate the support and values of several (typically related) sparse vectors from a few noisy linear measurements. Our algorithm is…

We propose a new yet natural algorithm for learning the graph structure of general discrete graphical models (a.k.a. Markov random fields) from samples. Our algorithm finds the neighborhood of a node by sequentially adding nodes that…

We study sparse approximation by greedy algorithms. Our contribution is two-fold. First, we prove exact recovery with high probability of random $K$-sparse signals within $\lceil K(1+\e)\rceil$ iterations of the Orthogonal Matching Pursuit…
