In this paper, we consider a class of nonconvex complex quadratic programming (CQP) problems, which find a broad spectrum of signal processing applications. By using the polar coordinate representations of the complex variables, we first…

We propose an innovative algorithm for non-convex composite federated learning that decouples the proximal operator evaluation and the communication between server and clients. Moreover, each client uses local updates to communicate less…

Interpretation of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) training as an optimal control problem with nonlinear dynamical systems has received considerable attention recently, yet the algorithmic development remains relatively limited. In this work, we…

In this paper, we consider the problem in defocus image deblurring. Previous classical methods follow two-steps approaches, i.e., first defocus map estimation and then the non-blind deblurring. In the era of deep learning, some researchers…

Solving linear programs is often a challenging task in distributed settings. While there are good algorithms for solving packing and covering linear programs in a distributed manner (Kuhn et al.~2006), this is essentially the only class of…

We study binary optimization problems of the form \( \min_{x\in\{-1,1\}^n} f(Ax-b) \) with possibly nonsmooth loss \(f\). Following the lifted rank-one semidefinite programming (SDP) approach\cite{qian2023matrix}, we develop a…

In this paper, we propose two algorithms for solving convex optimization problems with linear ascending constraints. When the objective function is separable, we propose a dual method which terminates in a finite number of iterations. In…

We propose Deep Companion Learning (DCL), a novel training method for Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) that enhances generalization by penalizing inconsistent model predictions compared to its historical performance. To achieve this, we train a…

The possibilities of exploiting the special structure of d.c. programs, which consist of optimizing the difference of convex functions, are currently more or less limited to variants of the DCA proposed by Pham Dinh Tao and Le Thi Hoai An…

Deep Actor-Critic algorithms, which combine Actor-Critic with deep neural network (DNN), have been among the most prevalent reinforcement learning algorithms for decision-making problems in simulated environments. However, the existing deep…

We study a class of generalized linear programs (GLP) in a large-scale setting, which includes simple, possibly nonsmooth convex regularizer and simple convex set constraints. By reformulating (GLP) as an equivalent convex-concave min-max…

Conformal prediction (CP) is a promising uncertainty quantification framework which works as a wrapper around a black-box classifier to construct prediction sets (i.e., subset of candidate classes) with provable guarantees. However,…

Artificial neural networks have already shown their success in face recognition and similar complex pattern recognition tasks. However, a major disadvantage of the technique is that it is extremely slow during training for larger classes…

We propose a software framework based on the ideas of the Learning-Compression (LC) algorithm, that allows a user to compress a neural network or other machine learning model using different compression schemes with minimal effort.…

In this paper, we devise a novel lightweight Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) design dubbed as Multi-Rate Magnitude Pruning (MRMP) that jointly trains network topology and weights. Our method is variational and proceeds by aligning the…

We propose the -- to the best of our knowledge -- first fully functional implementation of the ``Separation by a Convex Body'' (SCB) approach first outlined in Grzybowski et al. [1] for classification, separating two data sets using an…

Safety remains a central challenge in control of dynamical systems, particularly when the boundaries of unsafe sets are complex (e.g., nonconvex, nonsmooth) or unknown. This paper proposes a learning-enabled framework for safety-critical…

Convolutional neural networks are becoming standard tools for solving object recognition and visual tasks. However, most of the design and implementation of these complex models are based on trail-and-error. In this report, the main focus…

A popular class of algorithms to optimize the dual LP relaxation of the discrete energy minimization problem (a.k.a.\ MAP inference in graphical models or valued constraint satisfaction) are convergent message-passing algorithms, such as…

We introduce a convex approach for mixed linear regression over $d$ features. This approach is a second-order cone program, based on L1 minimization, which assigns an estimate regression coefficient in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ for each data point.…
