Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

A Catalyst Framework for Minimax Optimization

Negar Kiyavash

We introduce a generic two-loop scheme for smooth minimax optimization with strongly-convex-concave objectives. Our approach applies the accelerated proximal point framework (or Catalyst) to the associated dual problem and takes full advantage of existing ...

Second-Order Guarantees In Federated Learning

Ali H. Sayed, Stefan Vlaski, Elsa Rizk

Federated learning is a useful framework for centralized learning from distributed data under practical considerations of heterogeneity, asynchrony, and privacy. Federated architectures are frequently deployed in deep learning settings, which generally giv ...

An Inexact Augmented Lagrangian Framework for Nonconvex Optimization with Nonlinear Constraints

Volkan Cevher, Ahmet Alacaoglu, Armin Eftekhari, Fabian Ricardo Latorre Gomez, Mehmet Fatih Sahin

We propose a practical inexact augmented Lagrangian method (iALM) for nonconvex problems with nonlinear constraints. We characterize the total computational complexity of our method subject to a verifiable geometric condition, which is closely related to t ...

Improved Bounds for Discretization of Langevin Diffusions: Near-Optimal Rates without Convexity

Nicolas Henri Bernard Flammarion

We consider minimizing a nonconvex, smooth function

f

on a Riemannian manifold

\mathcal{M}

. We show that a perturbed version of Riemannian gradient descent algorithm converges to a second-order stationary point (and hence is able to escape saddle point ...

We consider minimizing a nonconvex, smooth function f on a Riemannian manifold M. We show that a perturbed version of Riemannian gradient descent algorithm converges to a second-order stationary point (and hence is able to escape saddle points on the manif ...

This paper presents an investigation into the ultimate behavior of a recently developed design for keyed shear connections. The influence of the key depth on the failure mode and ductility of the connection has been studied by push-off tests. The tests sho ...

Engineering Structures2018

For a Hamiltonian matrix with purely imaginary eigenvalues, we aim to determine the nearest Hamiltonian matrix such that some or all eigenvalues leave the imaginary axis. Conversely, for a Hamiltonian matrix with all eigenvalues lying off the imaginary axi ...

Springer Heidelberg2015

In this paper, we propose reduced basis multiscale finite element methods (RB-MsFEM) for elliptic problems with highly oscillating coefficients. The method is based on multiscale finite element methods with local test functions that encode the oscillatory ...

Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics2015

Assume that a stochastic process can be approximated, when some scale parameter gets large, by a fluid limit (also called mean field limit", or hydrodynamic limit"). A common practice, often called the ``fixed point approximation" consists in approxima ...

We introduce in this thesis the idea of a variable lookback model, i.e., a model whose predictions are based on a variable portion of the information set. We verify the intuition of this model in the context of experimental finance. We also propose a novel ...
