Linear-parametric optimization, where multiple objectives are combined into a single objective using linear combinations with parameters as coefficients, has numerous links to other fields in optimization and a wide range of application…
We consider the least-squares finite element method (lsfem) for systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equations and establish an optimal error estimate for this method when piecewise linear elements are used. The main assumptions are…
Parameter estimation by nonlinear least squares minimization is a common problem with an elegant geometric interpretation: the possible parameter values of a model induce a manifold in the space of data predictions. The minimization problem…
We propose a novel randomized framework for the estimation problem of large-scale linear statistical models, namely Sequential Least-Squares Estimators with Fast Randomized Sketching (SLSE-FRS), which integrates Sketch-and-Solve and…
Ordinary least squares (OLS) is the default method for fitting linear models, but is not applicable for problems with dimensionality larger than the sample size. For these problems, we advocate the use of a generalized version of OLS…
Let $S(A)$ denote the orbit of a complex or real matrix $A$ under a certain equivalence relation such as unitary similarity, unitary equivalence, unitary congruences etc. Efficient gradient-flow algorithms are constructed to determine the…
This note uses the Total Least-Squares (TLS) line-fitting problem as a canvas to explore some modern optimization tools. The contribution is meant to be tutorial in nature. The TLS problem has a lot of mathematical similarities to important…
We present an algorithm to compute best least-squares approximations of discrete real-valued functions by first-degree splines (broken lines) with free knots. We demonstrate that the algorithm delivers after a finite number of steps a…
A numerical method optimizing the coefficients of the semi empirical mass formula or those of similar mass formulas is presented. The optimization is based on the least-squares adjustments method and leads to the resolution of a linear…
We study randomized sketching methods for approximately solving least-squares problem with a general convex constraint. The quality of a least-squares approximation can be assessed in different ways: either in terms of the value of the…
In this paper, we present perturbation analysis and randomized algorithms for the total least squares (TLS) problems. We derive the perturbation bound and check its sharpness by numerical experiments. Motivated by the recently popular…
Non-linear least squares solvers are used across a broad range of offline and real-time model fitting problems. Most improvements of the basic Gauss-Newton algorithm tackle convergence guarantees or leverage the sparsity of the underlying…
Linear Least Squares is a very well known technique for parameter estimation, which is used even when sub-optimal, because of its very low computational requirements and the fact that exact knowledge of the noise statistics is not required.…
Classical shadows (CS) offer a resource-efficient means to estimate quantum observables, circumventing the need for exhaustive state tomography. Here, we clarify and explore the connection between CS techniques and least squares (LS) and…
The least-mean-squares (LMS) algorithm is the most popular algorithm in adaptive filtering. Several variable step-size strategies have been suggested to improve the performance of the LMS algorithm. These strategies enhance the performance…
The approximation of tensors has important applications in various disciplines, but it remains an extremely challenging task. It is well known that tensors of higher order can fail to have best low-rank approximations, but with an important…
People employ the function-on-function regression to model the relationship between two random curves. Fitting this model, widely used strategies include algorithms falling into the framework of functional partial least squares (typically…
We consider the problem of efficiently solving large-scale linear least squares problems that have one or more linear constraints that must be satisfied exactly. Whilst some classical approaches are theoretically well founded, they can face…
The optimal one-sided parametric polynomial approximants of a circular arc are considered. More precisely, the approximant must be entirely in or out of the underlying circle of an arc. The natural restriction to an arc's approximants…
Total least squares (TLS) methods have been widely used in data fitting. Compared with the least squares method, for TLS problem we takes into account not only the observation errors, but also the errors in the measurement matrix. This is…
