The goal of this paper is to propose and discuss a practical way to implement the Dirac algorithm for constrained field models defined on spatial regions with boundaries. Our method is inspired in the geometric viewpoint developed by Gotay,…

We propose a first-order method for solving inequality constrained optimization problems. The method is derived from our previous work [12], a modified search direction method (MSDM) that applies the singular-value decomposition of…

Conservation principles like conservation of charge or energy provide a natural way to couple and constrain different physical variables. In this letter, we propose a dynamical system model that exploits these constraints for solving…

We study generalised additive models, with shape restrictions (e.g. monotonicity, convexity, concavity) imposed on each component of the additive prediction function. We show that this framework facilitates a nonparametric estimator of each…

In the article we discuss the notion of the generalized invariant manifold introduced in our previous study. In the literature the method of the differential constraints is well known as a tool for constructing particular solutions for the…

Dimensionality reduction is a main step in the learning process which plays an essential role in many applications. The most popular methods in this field like SVD, PCA, and LDA, only can be applied to data with vector format. This means…

In this paper, we develop an adaptive Generalized Multiscale Discontinuous Galerkin Method (GMs-DGM) for a class of high-contrast flow problems, and derive a-priori and a-posteriori error estimates for the method. Based on the a-posteriori…

Recovering underlying Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) structures from observational data is highly challenging due to the combinatorial nature of the DAG-constrained optimization problem. Recently, DAG learning has been cast as a continuous…

Scalable spatial GPs for massive datasets can be built via sparse Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) where a small number of directed edges is sufficient to flexibly characterize spatial dependence. The DAG can be used to devise fast algorithms…

The Minimum Path Cover (MPC) problem consists of finding a minimum-cardinality set of node-disjoint paths that cover all nodes in a given graph. We explore a variant of the MPC problem on acyclic digraphs (DAGs) where, given a subset of…

Introducing inequality constraints in Gaussian process (GP) models can lead to more realistic uncertainties in learning a great variety of real-world problems. We consider the finite-dimensional Gaussian approach from Maatouk and Bay (2017)…

Markov decisions processes (MDPs) are becoming increasing popular as models of decision theoretic planning. While traditional dynamic programming methods perform well for problems with small state spaces, structured methods are needed for…

Decision trees are important both as interpretable models amenable to high-stakes decision-making, and as building blocks of ensemble methods such as random forests and gradient boosting. Their statistical properties, however, are not well…

The decentralized gradient descent (DGD) algorithm, and its sibling, diffusion, are workhorses in decentralized machine learning, distributed inference and estimation, and multi-agent coordination. We propose a novel, principled framework…

We propose a Greedy strategy to solve the problem of Graph Cut, called GGC. It starts from the state where each data sample is regarded as a cluster and dynamically merges the two clusters which reduces the value of the global objective…

We propose a new exact approach to the generalized graph layering problem that is based on a particular quadratic assignment formulation. It expresses, in a natural way, the associated layout restrictions and several possible objectives,…

In past years, the minimax type single-level optimization formulation and its variations have been widely utilized to address Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). Unfortunately, it has been proved that these alternating learning…

This paper considers a general data-fitting problem over a networked system, in which many computing nodes are connected by an undirected graph. This kind of problem can find many real-world applications and has been studied extensively in…

In this paper, we propose the multi-domain dictionary learning (MDDL) to make dictionary learning-based classification more robust to data representing in different domains. We use adversarial neural networks to generate data in different…

Achieving bound consistency for the no-overlap constraint is known to be NP-complete. Therefore, several polynomial-time tightening techniques, such as edge finding, not-first-not-last reasoning, and energetic reasoning, have been…
