We prove existence, uniqueness and regularity results for mixed boundary value problems associated with fully nonlinear, possibly singular or degenerate elliptic equations. Our main result is a global H\"older estimate for solutions,…

Community detection is an important problem in unsupervised learning. This paper proposes to solve a projection matrix approximation problem with an additional entrywise bounded constraint. Algorithmically, we introduce a new differentiable…

The classic Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) is a popular framework to solve linear-equality constrained problems. In this paper, we extend the ADMM naturally to nonlinear equality-constrained problems, called neADMM. The…

One popular approach for blind deconvolution is to formulate a maximum a posteriori (MAP) problem with sparsity priors on the gradients of the latent image, and then alternatingly estimate the blur kernel and the latent image. While several…

We propose a new kind of stochastic absolute value equations involving absolute values of variables. By utilizing an equivalence relation to stochastic bilinear program, we investigate the expected value formulation for the proposed…

The problem of approximating a sampled function using sums of a fixed number of complex exponentials is considered. We use alternating projections between fixed rank matrices and Hankel matrices to obtain such an approximation. Convergence,…

We propose a variant of the classical conditional gradient method for sparse inverse problems with differentiable measurement models. Such models arise in many practical problems including superresolution, time-series modeling, and matrix…

Constrained non-convex optimization problems frequently arise in control applications. Solving such problems is inherently challenging, as existing methods often converge to suboptimal local minima or incur prohibitive computational costs.…

Solving large-scale systems of nonlinear equations/inequalities is a fundamental problem in computing and optimization. In this paper, we propose a generic successive projection (SP) framework for this problem. The SP sequentially projects…

From a dual perspective of the sparse representation model, Nam et al. proposed the cosparse analysis model. In this paper, we aim to investigate the convergence of the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) for the cosparse…

Diffusion models have indeed shown great promise in solving inverse problems in image processing. In this paper, we propose a novel, problem-agnostic diffusion model called the maximum a posteriori (MAP)-based guided term estimation method…

We investigate a class of general combinatorial graph problems, including MAX-CUT and community detection, reformulated as quadratic objectives over nonconvex constraints and solved via the alternating direction method of multipliers…

This paper introduces a new method of partitioning the solution space of a multi-objective optimisation problem for parallel processing, called Efficient Projection Partitioning. This method projects solutions down into a single dimension,…

We consider a decision-making problem to evaluate absolute ratings of alternatives that are compared in pairs according to two criteria, subject to box constraints on the ratings. The problem is formulated as the log-Chebyshev approximation…

Saddle-point problems appear in various settings including machine learning, zero-sum stochastic games, and regression problems. We consider decomposable saddle-point problems and study an extension of the alternating direction method of…

An evolutionary form of a generalized Bayesian update method, which is strictly derivative- free yet directed through an additive update term based purely on the statistical moments of the design variables, is proposed for nonlinear inverse…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane, where each element of $P$ is assigned a weight $\omega(p)$, positive or negative. In this paper, we present an algorithm that runs in $O(n^4\log n)$ time and $O(n)$ space to find two possibly…

Absolute value linear programming problems is quite a new area of optimization problems, involving linear functions and absolute values in the description of the model. In this paper, we consider interval uncertainty of the input…

This work investigates the theoretical performance of the alternating-direction method of multipliers (ADMM) as it applies to nonconvex optimization problems, and in particular, problems with nonconvex constraint sets. The alternating…

The Bayesian approach has proved to be a coherent approach to handle ill posed Inverse problems. However, the Bayesian calculations need either an optimization or an integral calculation. The maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation requires…
