Semidefinite Programming Methods for Alleviating Sensor Position Error in TDOA Localization
IEEE Access, 2017 This paper develops a unified solution for time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA) localization in the presence of sensor position errors. This technique starts with maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), which is known to be nonconvex.

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.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 ...

Quantum algorithms for conformal bootstrap
Nuclear Physics B, 2019 With the help of recent developments in quantum algorithms for semidefinite programming, we discuss the possibility for quantum speedup for the numerical conformal bootstrap in conformal field theory.

A hybrid constraint programming and semidefinite programming approach for the stable set problem
, 2003 This work presents a hybrid approach to solve the maximum stable set problem, using constraint and semidefinite programming. The approach consists of two steps: subproblem generation and subproblem solution.

Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.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.

Mokslas: Lietuvos Ateitis, 2015 Semidefinite Programming (SDP) is a fairly recent way of solving optimization problems which are becoming more and more important in our fast moving world. It is a minimization of linear function over the intersection of the cone of positive semidefinite

Ethnic Conflicts, Civil War, and Economic Growth: Region‐Level Evidence From Former Yugoslavia
Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper studies the long‐term effects of the Yugoslav civil war (1987–1995) on subnational economic growth across 78 regions in five former Yugoslav republics from 1950 to 2015. We construct counterfactual growth trajectories using a robust region‐level donor pool from 32 conflict‐free countries.

Semidefinite Relaxation Method for Target Localization by MIMO Radar Using Bistatic Ranges
International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks, 2014 We address the target localization problem by using bistatic range (BR) measurements in widely separated multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar network.
