A new, globally convergent Riemannian conjugate gradient method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This article deals with the conjugate gradient method on a Riemannian manifold with interest in global convergence analysis. The existing conjugate gradient algorithms on a manifold endowed with a vector transport need the assumption that the vector ...

The alternating descent conditional gradient method for sparse inverse problems [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE International Workshop on Computational Advances in Multi-Sensor Adaptive Processing, 2015
We propose a variant of the classical conditional gradient method (CGM) for sparse inverse problems with differentiable measurement models. Such models arise in many practical problems including superresolution, time-series modeling, and matrix ...

Optimal H2 Moment Matching-Based Model Reduction for Linear Systems through (Non)convex Optimization

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
In this paper, we compute a (local) optimal reduced order model that matches a prescribed set of moments of a stable linear time-invariant system of high dimension. We fix the interpolation points and parametrize the models achieving moment-matching in a

Background field method in the gradient flow

open access: yes, 2015
In perturbative consideration of the Yang--Mills gradient flow, it is useful to introduce a gauge non-covariant term ("gauge-fixing term") to the flow equation that gives rise to a Gaussian damping factor also for gauge degrees of freedom. In the present

Policy Gradient Methods for Robotics [PDF]

open access: yes2006 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2006
The acquisition and improvement of motor skills and control policies for robotics from trial and error is of essential importance if robots should ever leave precisely pre-structured environments. However, to date only few existing reinforcement learning methods have been scaled into the domains of high-dimensional robots such as manipulator, legged or

Orthogonal Functions Applied in Antenna Positioning

open access: yesAdvances in Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2010
In this paper, we present a method for designing orthogonal, Legendre type filters. Realization of these filters is very simple and they are very fast, robust and precise.

Policy gradient methods

open access: yesScholarpedia, 2010
A policy gradient method is a reinforcement learning approach that directly optimizes a parametrized control policy by gradient descent. It belongs to the class of policy search techniques that maximize the expected return of a policy in a fixed policy class while traditional value function approximation approaches derive policies from a value function.

Guided Hybrid Modified Simulated Annealing Algorithm for Solving Constrained Global Optimization Problems

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
In this paper, a hybrid gradient simulated annealing algorithm is guided to solve the constrained optimization problem. In trying to solve constrained optimization problems using deterministic, stochastic optimization methods or hybridization between ...

Feasibility and Safety of High‐Dose Proton Re‐Irradiation in Recurrent Pediatric Central Nervous System Tumors: A Single‐Institution Retrospective Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Pediatric central nervous system (CNS) tumors often recur despite multimodality therapy. Although re‐irradiation (re‐RT) has historically been limited by concerns for severe late toxicities, modern techniques have renewed interest in this approach. Proton therapy provides dosimetric advantages that may enable curative re‐treatment with
