Euclid in a Taxicab: Sparse Blind Deconvolution with Smoothed l1/l2 Regularization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The l1/l2 ratio regularization function has shown good performance for retrieving sparse signals in a number of recent works, in the context of blind deconvolution. Indeed, it benefits from a scale invariance property much desirable in the blind context.

A penalty barrier framework for nonconvex constrained optimization [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nonsmooth Analysis and Optimization
We consider minimization problems with structured objective function and smooth constraints, and present a flexible framework that combines the beneficial regularization effects of (exact) penalty and interior-point methods.

Mixed-Integer Convex Nonlinear Optimization with Gradient-Boosted Trees Embedded [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Decision trees usefully represent sparse, high dimensional and noisy data. Having learned a function from this data, we may want to thereafter integrate the function into a larger decision-making problem, e.g., for picking the best chemical process ...

Approximation Algorithm for the Single Machine Scheduling Problem with Release Dates and Submodular Rejection Penalty

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
In this paper, we consider the single machine scheduling problem with release dates and nonmonotone submodular rejection penalty. We are given a single machine and multiple jobs with probably different release dates and processing times. For each job, it

Finite elements for problems of the elasticity theory with the discontinuous stress approximation [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
The paper deals with the development of the finite element models on the basis of stress approximation. At present, the displacementbased finite element method is mainly used for engineering calculations.

Smoothing Approximation to the Square-Order Exact Penalty Functions for Constrained Optimization

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2013
A method is proposed to smooth the square-order exact penalty function for inequality constrained optimization. It is shown that, under some conditions, an approximately optimal solution of the original problem can be obtained by searching an ...

Pattern-Multiplicative Average of Nonnegative Matrices: When a Constrained Minimization Problem Requires Versatile Optimization Tools

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
Given several nonnegative matrices with a single pattern of allocation among their zero/nonzero elements, the average matrix should have the same pattern as well.

A family of global convergent inexact secant methods for nonconvex constrained optimization

open access: yesJournal of Algorithms & Computational Technology, 2018
We present a family of new inexact secant methods in association with Armijo line search technique for solving nonconvex constrained optimization. Different from the existing inexact secant methods, the algorithms proposed in this paper need not compute ...
