The role of identification in data‐driven policy iteration: A system theoretic study
Abstract The goal of this article is to study fundamental mechanisms behind so‐called indirect and direct data‐driven control for unknown systems. Specifically, we consider policy iteration applied to the linear quadratic regulator problem. Two iterative procedures, where data collected from the system are repeatedly used to compute new estimates of ...

Nonnegative factorization of positive semidefinite nonnegative matrices [PDF]
We give simple geometric proofs of the known results that, for n ⩽4, n × n nonnegative positive semidefinite matrices can be factored into n × n nonnegative factors and that, for n ⩾ 5, these conditions are not sufficient to guarantee the existence of ...

Recently, Kittaneh and Manasrah (J. Math. Anal. Appl. 361:262–269, 2010) showed a refinement of the arithmetic–geometric mean inequality for the Frobenius norm. In this paper, we shall present a generalization of Kittaneh and Manasrah’s result. Meanwhile,

We study the effects of heat and high temperature shocks on inflation in Australia using monthly, state‐level temperature anomaly data via two stages. In the first stage, we decompose temperature anomalies into orthogonal components using a structural vector autoregression with long‐run restrictions.

Graph‐Laplacian modeling of spatiotemporal effects for house price estimation
Abstract Many variables involve the modeling of spatial effects, and their dynamics over time. This article presents a linear model in which spatiotemporal random effects are modeled by graph‐Laplacians. A graph‐Laplacian flexibly encodes adjacency in both space and time, in our case not depending on unknown parameters. The graph‐Laplacian can be input

Abstract Alcohol policy liberalization is a contentious issue in the United States, including debates over whether grocery stores should be allowed to sell wine. This issue reflects a dilemma between accommodating consumer convenience, promoting wine industry growth, and generating tax revenue, versus concerns about potential harm to liquor stores ...

Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

The Story(line) So Far: A Survey on Storyline Visualization
Abstract Storyline visualizations model narratives as temporal networks, using x‐monotone lines to represent entities and their interactions over time. This technique offers an intuitive way to reveal structural patterns over time, such as character co‐occurrence and narrative flow.

Moore-Penrose inverse of a hollow symmetric matrix and a predistance matrix
By a hollow symmetric matrix we mean a symmetric matrix with zero diagonal elements. The notion contains those of predistance matrix and Euclidean distance matrix as its special cases.
