ABSTRACT Parental reflective functioning (PRF) is an important predictor of infant attachment, and interventions that target parent–infant/toddler dyads who are experiencing significant problems have the potential to improve PRF. A range of dyadic interventions have been developed over the past two decades, some of which explicitly target PRF as part ...

An entropic regularization method for solving systems of fuzzy linear inequalities
Solving systems of fuzzy linear inequalities could lead to the solutions of fuzzy linear programs. It is shown that a system of fuzzy linear inequalities can be converted to a regular min‐max problem. An entropic regularization method is introduced for solving such a problem. Some computational results are included.

Certain remarks on a class of evolution quasi‐variational inequalities
We prove two existence theorems, one for evolution quasi‐variational inequalities and the other for a time‐dependent quasi‐variational inequality modeling the quasi‐static problem of elastoplasticity with combined kinetic‐isotropic hardening.

Stable Approximations of a Minimal Surface Problem with Variational Inequalities
In this paper we develop a new approach for the stable approximation of a minimal surface problem associated with a relaxed Dirichlet problem in the space BV(Ω) of functions of bounded variation. The problem can be reformulated as an unconstrained minimization problem of a functional 𝒥 on BV(Ω) defined by 𝒥(u) = 𝒜(u) + ∫∂Ω|Tu − Φ|, where 𝒜(u) is the ...

Iterative solution of unstable variational inequalities on approximately given sets
The convergence and the stability of the iterative regularization method for solving variational inequalities with bounded nonsmooth properly monotone (i.e., degenerate) operators in Banach spaces are studied. All the items of the inequality (i.e., the operator A, the “right hand side” f and the set of constraints Ω) are to be perturbed. The connection

An inertial forward–backward algorithm for the minimization of the sum of two nonconvex functions
We propose a forward–backward proximal-type algorithm with inertial/memory effects for minimizing the sum of a nonsmooth function with a smooth one in the nonconvex setting.

A Variational Model for Data Fitting on Manifolds by Minimizing the Acceleration of a Bézier Curve
We derive a variational model to fit a composite Bézier curve to a set of data points on a Riemannian manifold. The resulting curve is obtained in such a way that its mean squared acceleration is minimal in addition to remaining close the data points. We

General algorithm and sensitivity analysis for variational inequalities
The fixed point technique is used to prove the existence of a solution for a class of variational inequalities related to odd order boundary value problems, and to suggest a general algorithm. We also study the sensitivity analysis for these variational inequalities and complementarity problems using the projection technique.

Iterative methods for nonlinear quasi complementarity problems
In this paper, we consider and study an iterative algorithm for finding the approximate solution of the nonlinear quasi complementarity problem of finding u ϵ k(u) such that where m is a point‐to‐point mapping, T is a (nonlinear) continuous mapping from a real Hilbert space H into itself and k*(u) is the polar cone of the convex cone k(u) in H. We also

Nonsmooth spectral gradient methods for unconstrained optimization
To solve nonsmooth unconstrained minimization problems, we combine the spectral choice of step length with two well-established subdifferential-type schemes: the gradient sampling method and the simplex gradient method.
