Although the ocean is investigated by many scientific fields, research about ocean space is scarce. But energy production, extraction of resources, infrastructural and logistical development is increasing incrementally, resulting in a quantum shift in scal ...
Most learning methods with rank or sparsity constraints use convex relaxations, which lead to optimization with the nuclear norm or the`1-norm. However, several important learning applications cannot benet from this approach as they feature these convex no ...
We study the properties of the normal cone to a proximally smooth set. We give a complete characterization of a proximally smooth set through the monotonicity properties of its normal cone in an arbitrary uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space. ...
We propose a novel approach to reconstruct Hyperspectral images from very few number of noisy compressive measurements. Our reconstruction approach is based on a convex minimization which penalizes both the nuclear norm and the l(2,1) mixed-norm of the dat ...
In this paper, we consider composite convex minimization problems. We advocate the merit of considering Generalized Proximal gradient Methods (GPM) where the norm employed is not Euclidean. To that end, we show the tractability of the general proximity ope ...
Modifying the moduli of supporting convexity and supporting smoothness, we introduce new moduli for Banach spaces which occur, for example, as lengths of catheti of right-angled triangles (defined via so-called quasiorthogonality). These triangles have two ...
Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) are widely used as building blocks for deep learning models. Learning typically proceeds by using stochastic gradient descent, and the gradients are estimated with sampling methods. However, the gradient estimation is a ...
In this paper, we study the problem of approximately computing the product of two real matrices. In particular, we analyze a dimensionality-reduction-based approximation algorithm due to Sarlos [1], introducing the notion of nuclear rank as the ratio of th ...
Time-optimal path following considers the problem of moving along a predetermined geometric path in minimum time. In the case of a robotic manipulator with simplified constraints, a convex reformulation of this optimal control problem has been derived prev ...

In this paper, we present a heuristic algorithm for solving exact, as well as approximate, shortest vector and closest vector problems on lattices. The algorithm can be seen as a modified sieving algorithm for which the vectors of the intermediate sets lie ...
