This paper shows how to use the shooting method, a classical numerical algorithm for solving boundary value problems, to compute the Riemannian distance on the Stiefel manifold $ \mathrm{St}(n,p) $, the set of $ n \times p $ matrices with…

We address the problem of computing Riemannian normal coordinates on the real, compact Stiefel manifold of orthogonal frames. The Riemannian normal coordinates are based on the so-called Riemannian exponential and the Riemannian logarithm…

Since the popularization of the Stiefel manifold for numerical applications in 1998 in a seminal paper from Edelman et al., it has been exhibited to be a key to solve many problems from optimization, statistics and machine learning. In…

Several applications in optimization, image, and signal processing deal with data that belong to the Stiefel manifold St(n,p), that is, the set of n-by-p matrices with orthonormal columns. Some applications, like the Riemannian center of…

We consider the leapfrog algorithm by Noakes for computing geodesics on Riemannian manifolds. The main idea behind this algorithm is to subdivide the original endpoint geodesic problem into several local problems, for which the endpoint…

We give bounds on geodesic distances on the Stiefel manifold, derived from new geometric insights. The considered geodesic distances are induced by the one-parameter family of Riemannian metrics introduced by H\"uper et al. (2021), which…

Boundary value problems in ODEs arise in modelling many physical situations from microscale to mega scale. Such two-point boundary value problems (BVPs) are complex and often possess no analytical closed form solutions. So, one has to rely…

Several important algorithms for machine learning and data analysis use pairwise distances as input. On Riemannian manifolds these distances may be prohibitively costly to compute, in particular for large datasets. To tackle this problem,…

In this paper we compare two numerical methods to integrate Riemannian cubic polynomials on the Stiefel manifold $\textbf{St}_{n,k}$. The first one is the adjusted de Casteljau algorithm, and the second one is a symplectic integrator…

We propose a fast, simple and robust algorithm for computing shortest paths and distances on Riemannian manifolds learned from data. This amounts to solving a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) subject to boundary conditions.…

Shape optimization is commonly applied in engineering to optimize shapes with respect to an objective functional relying on PDE solutions. In this paper, we view shape optimization as optimization on Riemannian shape manifolds. We consider…

Various tasks in scientific computing can be modeled as an optimization problem on the indefinite Stiefel manifold. We address this using the Riemannian approach, which basically consists of equipping the feasible set with a Riemannian…

The joint approximate diagonalization of non-commuting symmetric matrices is an important process in independent component analysis. This problem can be formulated as an optimization problem on the Stiefel manifold that can be solved using…

This paper presents a novel shooting method for solving two-point boundary value problems for second order ordinary differential equations. The method works as follows: first, a guess for the initial condition is made and an integration of…

We provide two closed-form geodesic formulas for a family of metrics on Stiefel manifold, parameterized by two positive numbers, having both the embedded and canonical metrics as special cases. The closed-form formulas allow us to compute…

We study a probabilistic numerical method for the solution of both boundary and initial value problems that returns a joint Gaussian process posterior over the solution. Such methods have concrete value in the statistics on Riemannian…

Riemannian optimization is concerned with problems, where the independent variable lies on a smooth manifold. There is a number of problems from numerical linear algebra that fall into this category, where the manifold is usually specified…

Arguably, geodesics are the most important geometric objects on a differentiable manifold. They describe candidates for shortest paths and are guaranteed to be unique shortest paths when the starting velocity stays within the so-called…

We derive a numerical algorithm for evaluating the Riemannian logarithm on the Stiefel manifold with respect to the canonical metric. In contrast to the existing optimization-based approach, we work from a purely matrix-algebraic…

The shooting method is used to solve a boundary value problem with separated and explicit constraints. To obtain approximations of an unknown initial values there are considered arguments based on the adjoint differential system attached to…
