A Similarity Matrix for Preserving Haplotype Diversity Amongst Parents in Genomic Selection

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In genomic selection, balancing genetic gain with the preservation of genetic diversity is a critical challenge, requiring innovative approaches to parent selection. Traditional methods risk losing valuable genetic diversity by not fully accounting for the complex patterns of haplotype distribution.

On Positive Semidefinite Matrices with Known Null Space [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications, 2002
We show how the zero structure of a basis of the null space of a positive semidefinite matrix can be exploited to determine a positive definite submatrix of maximal rank. We discuss consequences of this result for the solution of (constrained) linear systems and eigenvalue problems.

Markov Determinantal Point Process for Dynamic Random Sets

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Law of Determinantal Point Process (LDPP) is a flexible parametric family of distributions over random sets defined on a finite state space, or equivalently over multivariate binary variables. The aim of this paper is to introduce Markov processes of random sets within the LDPP framework. We show that, when the pairwise distribution of two

The Wishart short rate model

open access: yes, 2012
We consider a short rate model, driven by a stochastic process on the cone of positive semidefinite matrices.

Rough PDEs for Local Stochastic Volatility Models

open access: yesMathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this work, we introduce a novel pricing methodology in general, possibly non‐Markovian local stochastic volatility (LSV) models. We observe that by conditioning the LSV dynamics on the Brownian motion that drives the volatility, one obtains a time‐inhomogeneous Markov process. Using tools from rough path theory, we describe how to precisely

A Pure Dual Approach for Hedging Bermudan Options

open access: yesMathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper develops a new dual approach to compute the hedging portfolio of a Bermudan option and its initial value. It gives a “purely dual” algorithm following the spirit of Rogers in the sense that it only relies on the dual pricing formula.

Block Factor-width-two Matrices and Their Applications to Semidefinite and Sum-of-squares Optimization

open access: yes, 2020
Semidefinite and sum-of-squares (SOS) optimization are fundamental computational tools in many areas, including linear and nonlinear systems theory. However, the scale of problems that can be addressed reliably and efficiently is still limited.

Completely positive and completely positive semidefinite tensor relaxations for polynomial optimization

open access: yes, 2016
Completely positive (CP) tensors, which correspond to a generalization of CP matrices, allow to reformulate or approximate a general polynomial optimization problem (POP) with a conic optimization problem over the cone of CP tensors.

Robust Λ$\Lambda$‐Quantiles and Extremal Distributions

open access: yesMathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate the robust models for Λ$\Lambda$‐quantiles with partial information regarding the loss distribution, where Λ$\Lambda$‐quantiles extend the classical quantiles by replacing the fixed probability level with a probability/loss function Λ$\Lambda$.

Positive Semidefinite Metric Learning Using Boosting-like Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The success of many machine learning and pattern recognition methods relies heavily upon the identification of an appropriate distance metric on the input data.
