6 results for Semi-smoothness

This paper analyzes the convergence of Federated Average under relaxed assumptions.

problem Lack of theoretical analysis for Federated Average under assumptions beyond smoothness.
method Relaxing assumptions of strong smoothness to semi-smoothness and semi-Lipschitz properties, and introducing a bound on the gradient.
result Provides a theoretical convergence study on Federated Learning under new assumptions.

This paper approximates scattered data using samplet coordinates with sparsity constraints.

problem Scattered data approximation with sparsity constraints.
method Samplet basis pursuit with 1\ell_1-regularization, multiresolution techniques, and semi-smooth Newton method.
result The proposed method provides faster convergence and better signal sparsity compared to existing methods.

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have demonstrated dominating performance in many fields; since AlexNet, networks used in practice are going wider and deeper. On the theoretical side, a long line of works has been focusing on training neural networks with one hidden layer. The theory of multi-layer networks remains largely …

A new multi-task learning estimator improves Gaussian graphical regression model fitting.

problem High error rate in fitting Gaussian graphical regression models due to separate node-wise lasso regressions.
method Proposes a multi-task learning estimator with cross-task group sparsity and within-task element-wise sparsity penalties, solved via an efficient augmented Lagrangian algorithm.
result Error rate improvement over separate node-wise lasso estimates, demonstrated through simulations and application to gene co-expression network study.
