This paper proposes a new algorithm for multiple sparse regression in high dimensions, where the task is to estimate the support and values of several (typically related) sparse vectors from a few noisy linear measurements. Our algorithm is…
In the Shortest Common Superstring problem, one needs to find the shortest superstring for a set of strings. This problem is APX-hard, and many approximation algorithms were proposed, with the current best approximation factor of 2.466.…
We consider the problem of approximating a given element $f$ from a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ by means of greedy algorithms and the application of such procedures to the regression problem in statistical learning theory. We improve on the…
Submodular maximization has been widely studied over the past decades, mostly because of its numerous applications in real-world problems. It is well known that the standard greedy algorithm guarantees a worst-case approximation factor of…
In [3] it was proved that almost-greedy and semi-greedy bases are equivalent in the context of Banach spaces with finite cotype. In this paper we show this equivalence for general Banach spaces.
This paper defines weak-$\alpha$-supermodularity for set functions. Many optimization objectives in machine learning and data mining seek to minimize such functions under cardinality constrains. We prove that such problems benefit from a…
We consider the generalised Mathieu series \[\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{n^\gamma}{(n^\lambda+a^\lambda)^\mu}\qquad (\mu>0)\] when the parameters $\lambda$ ($>0$) and $\gamma$ are even integers for large complex $a$ in the sector…
In this paper we proof that there exists a function f(x) belongs to L^1[0,1] such that a greedy algorithm with regard to generalized Walsh system does not converge to f(x) in L^1[0,1] norm, i.e. the generalized Walsh system is not a…
The main goal of this paper is twofold. First, we extend some results known in the case of weak greedy algorithms with a scalar parameter to the case of weak greedy algorithms with a weakness sequence. Second, we formulate a new setting of…
Given a positive rational number $n/d$ with $d$ odd, its odd greedy expansion starts with the largest odd denominator unit fraction at most $n/d$, adds the largest odd denominator unit fraction so the sum is at most $n/d$, and continues as…
The change-making problem was recently extended to sets of positive integers not containing the element $1$, and from there to numerical semigroups. A greedy numerical semigroup is defined as a numerical semigroup where the greedy…
One introduces the concept of greedy k-summability in such a way, that the direct product of one greedy k-summable numeric array onto another greedy n-summable numeric array to be greedy (n+k+1)-summable.
Dimensionality reduction on quadratic manifolds augments linear approximations with quadratic correction terms. Previous works rely on linear approximations given by projections onto the first few leading principal components of the…
We characterize the approximation spaces of a broad class of bases - which includes almost greedy bases - in terms of weighted Lorentz spaces. For those bases, we also find necessary and sufficient conditions under which the approximation…
We study ways to accelerate greedy coordinate descent in theory and in practice, where "accelerate" refers either to $O(1/k^2)$ convergence in theory, in practice, or both. We introduce and study two algorithms: Accelerated Semi-Greedy…
Many problems in signal processing and machine learning can be formalized as weak submodular optimization tasks. For such problems, a simple greedy algorithm (\textsc{Greedy}) is guaranteed to find a solution achieving the objective with a…
We explore some properties of the conditional distribution of an i.i.d. sample under large exceedances of its sum. Thresholds for the asymptotic independance of the summands are observed, in contrast with the classical case when the…
We consider an optimization problem where the decision variable is a string of bounded length. For some time there has been an interest in bounding the performance of the greedy strategy for this problem. Here, we provide weakened…
We present a simple greedy procedure to compute an $(\alpha,\beta)$-spanner for a graph $G$. We then show that this procedure is useful for building fault-tolerant spanners, as well as spanners for weighted graphs. Our first main result is…
A countable, bounded degree graph is almost finite if it has a tiling with isomorphic copies of finitely many F\o lner sets, and we call it strongly almost finite, if the tiling can be randomized so that the probability that a vertex is on…
