Convergence rates of a dual gradient method for constrained linear ill-posed problems [PDF]

open access: yesNumerische Mathematik, 2022, 2022
In this paper we consider a dual gradient method for solving linear ill-posed problems $Ax = y$, where $A : X \to Y$ is a bounded linear operator from a Banach space $X$ to a Hilbert space $Y$. A strongly convex penalty function is used in the method to select a solution with desired feature.

Stochastic asymptotical regularization for linear inverse problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
We introduce Stochastic Asymptotical Regularization (SAR) methods for the uncertainty quantification of the stable approximate solution of ill-posed linear-operator equations, which are deterministic models for numerous inverse problems in science and engineering. We prove the regularizing properties of SAR with regard to mean-square convergence.

Penalized Variable Selection with Broken Adaptive Ridge Regression for Semi-competing Risks Data [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Semi-competing risks data arise when both non-terminal and terminal events are considered in a model. Such data with multiple events of interest are frequently encountered in medical research and clinical trials. In this framework, terminal event can censor the non-terminal event but not vice versa.
