Best subset selection is considered the `gold standard' for many sparse learning problems. A variety of optimization techniques have been proposed to attack this non-smooth non-convex problem. In this paper, we investigate the dual forms of…

Modern societies have an abundance of data yet good system models are rare. Unfortunately, many of the current system identification and machine learning techniques fail to generalize outside of the training set, producing models that…

Recent theoretical studies proved that deep neural network (DNN) estimators obtained by minimizing empirical risk with a certain sparsity constraint can attain optimal convergence rates for regression and classification problems. However,…

In this paper, we present a practical algorithm based on sparsity regularization to effectively solve nonlinear dynamic inverse problems that are encountered in subsurface model calibration. We use an iteratively reweighted algorithm that…

In this paper, we consider a dynamic linear system in state-space form where the observation equation depends linearly on a set of parameters. We address the problem of how to dynamically calculate these parameters in order to minimize the…

We consider the constrained Linear Inverse Problem (LIP), where a certain atomic norm (like the $\ell_1 $ norm) is minimized subject to a quadratic constraint. Typically, such cost functions are non-differentiable, which makes them not…

This paper extends recursive least squares (RLS) to include time-varying regularization. This extension provides flexibility for updating the least squares regularization term in real time. Existing results with constant regularization…

We propose a method to reconstruct sparse signals degraded by a nonlinear distortion and acquired at a limited sampling rate. Our method formulates the reconstruction problem as a nonconvex minimization of the sum of a data fitting term and…

A variable screening procedure via correlation learning was proposed Fan and Lv (2008) to reduce dimensionality in sparse ultra-high dimensional models. Even when the true model is linear, the marginal regression can be highly nonlinear. To…

Variable selection in high-dimensional space characterizes many contemporary problems in scientific discovery and decision making. Many frequently-used techniques are based on independence screening; examples include correlation ranking…

We introduce a general framework for analyzing learning algorithms based on the notion of self-regularization, which captures implicit complexity control without requiring explicit regularization. This is motivated by previous observations…

Variable screening is a fast dimension reduction technique for assisting high dimensional feature selection. As a preselection method, it selects a moderate size subset of candidate variables for further refining via feature selection to…

We developed a rapid polymorphic screening approach based on contracting sessile microdroplets which offers several advantages: (1) achieves very high supersaturation to facilitate formation of metastable forms (2) allows systematic…

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 address the problem of minimizing a convex smooth function $f(x)$ over a compact polyhedral set $D$ given a stochastic zeroth-order constraint feedback model. This problem arises in safety-critical machine learning applications, such as…

In high-dimensional linear regression, the goal pursued here is to estimate an unknown regression function using linear combinations of a suitable set of covariates. One of the key assumptions for the success of any statistical procedure in…

Sum-of-squares (SOS) optimization provides a computationally tractable framework for certifying polynomial nonnegativity. If the considered problem is convex, the SOS problem can be transcribed into and solved by semi-definite programs.…

Single-level reformulations of (non-convex) distributionally robust optimization (DRO) problems are often intractable, as they contain semiinfinite dual constraints. Based on such a semiinfinite reformulation, we present a safe…

We propose a new model-free feature screening method based on energy distances for ultrahigh-dimensional binary classification problems. With a high probability, the proposed method retains only relevant features after discarding all the…

We focus on tackling weakly supervised semantic segmentation with scribble-level annotation. The regularized loss has been proven to be an effective solution for this task. However, most existing regularized losses only leverage static…
