Positron Emission Tomography (PET) aims at recovering the metabolic activity of an organ of interest. Established algorithms implemented in contemporary PET scans are based on an approximation of the inverse Radon transform, resulting in a suboptimal estim ...
Low-rank tensor completion addresses the task of filling in missing entries in multidimensional data. It has proven its versatility in numerous applications, including context aware recommender systems and multivariate function learning. To handle large-sc ...
Any symmetric matrix can be reduced to antitriangular form in finitely many steps by orthogonal similarity transformations. This form reveals the inertia of the matrix and has found applications in, e.g., model predictive control and constraint preconditio ...
Multivariate curve resolution via alternating least squares (ALS) is used to resolve the concentration profiles C and the pure component spectra E of S species from the multivariate absorbance data A, assuming the bilinear model ...
We consider the problem of efficiently solving Sylvester and Lyapunov equations of medium and large scale, in case of rank-structured data, i.e., when the coefficient matrices and the right-hand side have low-rank off- diagonal blocks. This comprises probl ...
We derive an algorithm of optimal complexity which determines whether a given matrix is a Cauchy matrix, and which exactly recovers the Cauchy points defining a Cauchy matrix from the matrix entries. Moreover, we study how to approximate a given matrix by ...
This paper develops a suite of algorithms for constructing low-rank approximations of an input matrix from a random linear image of the matrix, called a sketch. These methods can preserve structural properties of the input matrix, such as positive-semideni ...
Dispersion quality has a large influence on the resulting properties of filled polymers, hybrids and nanocomposites in general. Reducing the van der Waals forces and therefore, matching the refractive index between the filler and the matrix should improve ...
We introduce a soft composite that is actuated mechanically to achieve switchable and tunable optical transmittance. Our design comprises a series of parallel opaque platelets embedded into an optically clear silicone-based elastomer matrix. Under an appli ...
We consider the group testing problem, in which one seeks to identify a subset of defective items within a larger set of items based on a number of noisy tests. While matching achievability and converse bounds are known in several cases of interest for i.i ...
