This paper develops a scalable new algorithm, called NysADMM, to minimize a smooth convex loss function with a convex regularizer. NysADMM accelerates the inexact Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) by constructing a…

This paper develops an adaptive proximal alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) for solving linearly constrained, composite optimization problems under the assumption that the smooth component of the objective is weakly convex,…

Linear multistep methods (LMMs) are popular time discretization techniques for the numerical solution of differential equations. Traditionally they are applied to solve for the state given the dynamics (the forward problem), but here we…

We present an alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) for a generic overlapping group lasso problem, where the groups can be overlapping in an arbitrary way. Meanwhile, we prove the lower bounds and upper bounds for both the…

This paper is concerned with the problem of distributed extended object tracking, which aims to collaboratively estimate the state and extension of an object by a network of nodes. In traditional tracking applications, most approaches…

Multi-target state estimation refers to estimating the number of targets and their trajectories in a surveillance area using measurements contaminated with noise and clutter. In the Bayesian paradigm, the most common approach to…

In this paper, we present a novel optimization algorithm designed specifically for estimating state-space models to deal with heavy-tailed measurement noise and constraints. Our algorithm addresses two significant limitations found in…

In this paper, we study a dynamic version of the sharing problem, in which a dynamic system cost function composed of time-variant local costs of subsystems and a shared time-variant cost of the whole system is minimized. A dynamic…

Learning to Optimize (L2O) approaches, including algorithm unrolling, plug-and-play methods, and hyperparameter learning, have garnered significant attention and have been successfully applied to the Alternating Direction Method of…

This paper considers the problem of iterative Bayesian smoothing in nonlinear state-space models with additive noise using Gaussian approximations. Iterative methods are known to improve smoothed estimates but are not guaranteed to…

This paper investigates the collision-free control problem for multi-agent systems. For such multi-agent systems, it is the typical situation where conventional methods using either the usual centralized model predictive control (MPC), or…

This paper addresses distributed state estimation for multi-agent systems with local and relative measurements, motivated by cooperative localization problems in which the global state dimension scales with the size of the network. We…

We present ADMM-Softmax, an alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) for solving multinomial logistic regression (MLR) problems. Our method is geared toward supervised classification tasks with many examples and features. It…

Spike and slab priors play a key role in inducing sparsity for sparse signal recovery. The use of such priors results in hard non-convex and mixed integer programming problems. Most of the existing algorithms to solve the optimization…

This paper tackles the challenging problem of jointly inferring time-varying network topologies and imputing missing data from partially observed graph signals. We propose a unified non-convex optimization framework to simultaneously…

Estimating conditional dependence graphs and precision matrices are some of the most common problems in modern statistics and machine learning. When data are fully observed, penalized maximum likelihood-type estimators have become standard…

We present an Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) algorithm designed to solve the Weighted Generalized Fused LASSO Signal Approximator (wFLSA). First, we show that wFLSAs can always be reformulated as a Generalized LASSO…

There are proposals that extend the classical generalized additive models (GAMs) to accommodate high-dimensional data ($p>>n$) using group sparse regularization. However, the sparse regularization may induce excess shrinkage when estimating…

This paper presents an adaptive Kalman filter for a linear dynamic system perturbed by an additive disturbance. The objective is to estimate both of the state and the unknown disturbance concurrently, while learning the disturbance as a…

High-dimensional regression often suffers from heavy-tailed noise and outliers, which can severely undermine the reliability of least-squares based methods. To improve robustness, we adopt a non-smooth Wilcoxon score based rank objective…
