We describe an approximate dynamic programming method for stochastic control problems on infinite state and input spaces. The optimal value function is approximated by a linear combination of basis functions with coefficients as decision variables. By rela ...
We consider minimization problems that are compositions of convex functions of a vector \x∈RN with submodular set functions of its support (i.e., indices of the non-zero coefficients of \x). Such problems are in general difficult for large N ...
In this paper, a new method for fixed-order controller design of systems with polytopic uncertainty in their state space representation is proposed. The approach uses the strictly positive realness (SPRness) of some transfer functions, as a tool to decoupl ...
Erd\H{o}s conjectured in 1946 that every n-point set P in convex position in the plane contains a point that determines at least floor(n/2) distinct distances to the other points of P. The best known lower bound due to Dumitrescu (2006) is 13n/36 - O(1). I ...
We study continuity properties of law-invariant (quasi-)convex functions f : L1(Ω,F, P) to ( ∞,∞] over a non-atomic probability space (Ω,F, P) .This is a supplementary note to [12] ...
It is known that a Green's function-type condition may be used to derive rates for approximation by radial basis functions (RBFs). In this paper, we introduce a method for obtaining rates for approximation by functions which can be convolved with a finite ...
We present and compare two different approaches to conditional risk measures. One approach draws from convex analysis in vector spaces and presents risk measures as functions on Lp spaces, while the other approach utilizes module-based convex analysis wher ...
We have studied a camera with a very large number of binary pixels referred to as the gigavision camera or the gigapixel digital film camera. Potential advantages of this new camera design include improved dynamic range, thanks to its logarithmic sensor re ...
We propose Matrix ALPS for recovering a sparse plus low-rank decomposition of a matrix given its corrupted and incomplete linear measurements. Our approach is a first-order projected gradient method over non-convex sets, and it exploits a well-known memory ...
