New Binding Sites, New Opportunities for GPCR Drug Discovery

Horst Vogel, Shuguang Yuan, Thamani Dahoun, Yen-Huan Li, Yifan Li

Many central biological events rely on protein-ligand interactions. The identification and characterization of protein-binding sites for ligands are crucial for the understanding of functions of both endogenous ligands and synthetic drug molecules. G prote ...

Convergence of the Exponentiated Gradient Method with Armijo Line Search

Volkan Cevher, Yen-Huan Li

Consider the problem of minimizing a convex differentiable function on the probability simplex, spectrahedron, or set of quantum density matrices. We prove that the expo-nentiated gradient method with Armijo line search always converges to the optimum, if ...

Learning without Smoothness and Strong Convexity

Yen-Huan Li

Recent advances in statistical learning and convex optimization have inspired many successful practices. Standard theories assume smoothness---bounded gradient, Hessian, etc.--- and strong convexity of the loss function. Unfortunately, such conditions may ...

Learning-Based Compressive MRI

Volkan Cevher, Jonathan Mark Scarlett, Yen-Huan Li, Baran Gözcü, Rabeeh Karimi Mahabadi

In the area of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), an extensive range of non-linear reconstruction algorithms have been proposed that can be used with general Fourier subsampling patterns. However, the design of these subsampling patterns has typically been ...

Learning-based subsampling

Volkan Cevher, Jonathan Mark Scarlett, Ilija Bogunovic, Yen-Huan Li, Luca Baldassarre, Baran Gözcü

The present invention concerns a method of sampling a test signal. The method comprises: acquiring (21) training signals sampled at a plurality of sampling locations; running (23) an optimization procedure for determining an index set of n indices, represe ...

Learning Data Triage: Linear Decoding Works for Compressive MRI

Volkan Cevher, Yen-Huan Li

The standard approach to compressive sampling considers recovering an unknown deterministic signal with certain known structure, and designing the sub-sampling pattern and recovery algorithm based on the known structure. This approach requires looking for ...

Estimation Error of the Constrained Lasso

Volkan Cevher, Yen-Huan Li, Ya-Ping Hsieh, Nissim Zerbib

This paper presents a non-asymptotic upper bound for the estimation error of the constrained lasso, under the high-dimensional (

n \ll p

) setting. In contrast to existing results, the error bound in this paper is sharp, is valid when the parameter to be e ...

Frank-Wolfe Works for Non-Lipschitz Continuous Gradient Objectives: Scalable Poisson Phase Retrieval

Volkan Cevher, Quoc Tran Dinh, Alp Yurtsever, Yen-Huan Li, Ya-Ping Hsieh, Marwa El Halabi, Gergely Odor

We study a phase retrieval problem in the Poisson noise model. Motivated by the PhaseLift approach, we approximate the maximum-likelihood estimator by solving a convex program with a nuclear norm constraint. While the Frank-Wolfe algorithm, together with t ...

What’s the Frequency, Kenneth?: Sublinear Fourier Sampling Off the Grid

Volkan Cevher, Yen-Huan Li

We design a sublinear Fourier sampling algorithm for a case of sparse off-grid frequency recovery. These are signals with the form f(t)=∑kj=1ajeiωjt+ν^ , t∈Z ; i.e., exponential polynomials with a noise term. The frequencies {ω j } satisfy ω j ∈ [η,2π − η ...

High-efficiency and stable quasi-solid-state dye-sensitized solar cell based on low molecular mass organogelator electrolyte

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Yong Ding, Bing Zhang, Lu Wang, Yen-Huan Li, Li Tao, Xu Pan

The highest photoelectric conversion efficiency (9.61%) for a quasi-solid-state DSSC (QS-DSSC) based on a low molecular mass organogelator (LMOG) is achieved using N, N'-1,5-pentanediylbis-dodecanamide as a LMOG in conjunction with a TiO2 photoanode of sub ...
