Learn to Solve Constrained Routing Problems in V2V Social Vehicle Networks
IEEE Open Journal of the Communications SocietyIn vehicle social networks (VSN), multi-hop vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) routing must minimize end-to-end delay while satisfying a social trust budget. This trust-constrained routing can be formulated as an NP-hard resource-constrained shortest path problem (

Learning sparse mixture‐of‐experts generalized linear models in ultrahigh dimensions
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract Motivated by the challenges of heterogeneity and high dimensionality in the analysis of modern data, we investigate continuous regularization methods for learning sparse mixture‐of‐experts generalized linear models (MoE‐GLM). Although there are foundational results about regularized estimators in a broad class of regression models including ...
