A unifying theory of exactness of linear penalty functions II: parametric penalty functions [PDF]

open access: yesOptimization, 2017
In this article we develop a general theory of exact parametric penalty functions for constrained optimization problems. The main advantage of the method of parametric penalty functions is the fact that a parametric penalty function can be both smooth and exact unlike the standard (i.e. non-parametric) exact penalty functions that are always nonsmooth.

New Exact Penalty Functions for Nonlinear Constrained Optimization Problems

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
For two kinds of nonlinear constrained optimization problems, we propose two simple penalty functions, respectively, by augmenting the dimension of the primal problem with a variable that controls the weight of the penalty terms.

Variable selection using MM algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Variable selection is fundamental to high-dimensional statistical modeling. Many variable selection techniques may be implemented by maximum penalized likelihood using various penalty functions.

Variable selection for the multicategory SVM via adaptive sup-norm regularization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The Support Vector Machine (SVM) is a popular classification paradigm in machine learning and has achieved great success in real applications. However, the standard SVM can not select variables automatically and therefore its solution typically utilizes ...

Structured penalties for functional linear models---partially empirical eigenvectors for regression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
One of the challenges with functional data is incorporating spatial structure, or local correlation, into the analysis. This structure is inherent in the output from an increasing number of biomedical technologies, and a functional linear model is often ...
