A Quantised Push‐Sum Distributed Adaptive Momentum Algorithm for Optimisation Over Directed Networks

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate a distributed constrained optimisation problem over directed networks. The agents in the networks conduct local computations and communications, endeavouring to collaboratively minimise the aggregation of all locally known convex cost functions subject to a global constraint set.

Singular M-matrices which may not have a nonnegative generalized inverse

open access: yesSpecial Matrices, 2014
A matrix A ∈ ℝn×n is a GM-matrix if A = sI − B, where 0 < ρ(B) ≤ s and B ∈WPFn i.e., both B and Bthave ρ(B) as their eigenvalues and their corresponding eigenvector is entry wise nonnegative.

Matrix measures and random walks [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we study the connection between matrix measures and random walks with a tridiagonal block transition matrix. We derive sufficient conditions such that the blocks of the n-step transition matrix of the Markov chain can be represented as ...

Beyond Distinction: Private Art Museums and Their Versatile Role for Elites' (Self)Legitimization Discourses

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 2000s have witnessed a significant, worldwide boom in new art museums founded by private, wealthy collectors. While the arts have long been a key arena for the remaking of elite distinction and the reproduction of inequalities, this surge in private museums has sparked much controversy.

Cross‐Ownership and Welfare‐Inferior Price Competition with Relative Profit Delegation Contracts

open access: yesBulletin of Economic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We consider management reward contracts based on relative profit performance under cross‐ownership and find nonequivalence of price and quantity competition. We also examine an endogenous choice of competition mode under unilateral cross‐ownership and show that the welfare‐inferior price competition can appear unless the product's ...

Topology‐based Visual Analysis of Hydrothermal Plumes

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Hydrothermal plumes are turbulent structures of intense heat and mineral smoke that rise and disperse into the deep ocean. Existing models generally characterize these systems as a single axisymmetric plume originating from a point source. However, this assumption breaks down in weakly venting, spatially distributed systems, where low‐flux ...

Computationally Efficient Ranking of Sampling Locations by Redundancy in Groundwater Monitoring Networks

open access: yesGroundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract The long‐term and frequent sampling of groundwater monitoring networks is common practice for monitoring the concentrations of constituents of potential concern (CoPC) over space and time. Sampling can be a costly and time‐intensive process that also incurs health and safety risks. A redundancy‐based ranking of candidate sampling locations can

Multivariate Nonnegative Quadratic Mappings

open access: yes
In this paper we study several issues related to the characterization of speci c classes of multivariate quadratic mappings that are nonnegative over a given domain, with nonnegativity de ned by a pre-speci ed conic order.In particular, we consider the ...

Low-rank matrix approximation with weights or missing data is NP-hard [PDF]

open access: yes
Weighted low-rank approximation (WLRA), a dimensionality reduction technique for data analysis, has been successfully used in several applications, such as in collaborative filtering to design recommender systems or in computer vision to recover ...
