Optimal power flow (OPF) problem is a class of large-scale and non-convex optimization problem. Various algorithms are proposed to solve the challenging OPF problem. Recent studies show that semidefinite programming (SDP) can either provide…

Rotational smoothing is a phenomenon consisting in a gain of regularity by means of averaging over rotations. This phenomenon is present in operators that regularize only in certain directions, in contrast to operators regularizing in all…

Sample- and computationally-efficient distribution estimation is a fundamental tenet in statistics and machine learning. We present SURF, an algorithm for approximating distributions by piecewise polynomials. SURF is: simple, replacing…

Stochastic optimization algorithms are widely used for machine learning with large-scale data. However, their convergence often suffers from non-vanishing variance. Variance Reduction (VR) methods, such as SVRG and SARAH, address this issue…

In this study, we develop an efficient approach for approximating resolvent modes via spatial marching. Building on the methodology from Part 1, we leverage the ability of the projection-based formulation of the one-way Navier-Stokes…

In this paper, a new efficient and generalized consistency correction method for weakly-compressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics is proposed and successfully implemented in the simulation of violent free-surface flow exhibiting breaking…

We study a class of optimization problems on Riemannian manifolds, where the objective function consists of a smooth term and quasi-norm type penalties with exponent $p \in (0, 1]$. The essential difficulty lies in the fact that the…

The paper describes a new approach to global smoothing problems for inhomogeneous dispersive evolution equations based on an idea of canonical transformation. In our previous papers, we introduced such a method to show global smoothing…

In order to improve the stability of synchrotron radiation, we developed a new method of machine learning-based closed orbit feedback and piloted it in the storage ring of the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF). In our…

We improve recently introduced consensus-based optimization method, proposed in [R. Pinnau, C. Totzeck, O. Tse and S. Martin, Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci., 27(01):183--204, 2017], which is a gradient-free optimization method for general…

In recent years, many estimation problems in robotics have been shown to be solvable to global optimality using their semidefinite relaxations. However, the runtime complexity of off-the-shelf semidefinite programming (SDP) solvers is up to…

Rotation Averaging is a non-convex optimization problem that determines orientations of a collection of cameras from their images of a 3D scene. The problem has been studied using a variety of distances and robustifiers. The intrinsic (or…

The ground state energy of a many-electron system can be approximated by an variational approach in which the total energy of the system is minimized with respect to one and two-body reduced density matrices (RDM) instead of many-electron…

We propose a novel method for single rotation averaging using the Weiszfeld algorithm. Our contribution is threefold: First, we propose a robust initialization based on the elementwise median of the input rotation matrices. Our initial…

We present a quantum computing algorithm for the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. We use a normalization procedure to encode the SPH operators and domain discretization in a quantum register. We then perform the SPH summation…

Orientation learning plays a pivotal role in many tasks. However, the rotation group SO(3) is a Riemannian manifold. As a result, the distortion caused by non-Euclidean geometric nature introduces difficulties to the incorporation of local…

LoRaWAN is nowadays one of the most popular protocols for low-power Internet-of-Things communications. Although its physical layer, namely LoRa, has been thoroughly studied in the literature, aspects related to the synchronization of LoRa…

We propose an efficient algorithm for solving group synchronization under high levels of corruption and noise, while we focus on rotation synchronization. We first describe our recent theoretically guaranteed message passing algorithm that…

Unsteady Aerodynamic Shape Optimization presents new challenges in terms of sensitivity analysis of time-dependent objective functions. In this work, we consider periodic unsteady flows governed by the URANS equations. Hence, the resulting…
