The covariance structure of multivariate functional data can be highly complex, especially if the multivariate dimension is large, making extensions of statistical methods for standard multivariate data to the functional data setting challenging. For example, Gaussian graphical models have recently been extended to the…

New BO methods exploit parallel experiments, reducing search time and improving solution quality.

We propose HAMSI (Hessian Approximated Multiple Subsets Iteration), which is a provably convergent, second order incremental algorithm for solving large-scale partially separable optimization problems. The algorithm is based on a local quadratic approximation, and hence, allows incorporating curvature information to sp…

In this paper we study decomposition methods based on separable approximations for minimizing the augmented Lagrangian. In particular, we study and compare the Diagonal Quadratic Approximation Method (DQAM) of Mulvey and Ruszczyński and the Parallel Coordinate Descent Method (PCDM) of Richtárik and Takáč. We show that …

In this work we show that randomized (block) coordinate descent methods can be accelerated by parallelization when applied to the problem of minimizing the sum of a partially separable smooth convex function and a simple separable convex function.

The split Bregman (SB) method [T. Goldstein and S. Osher, SIAM J. Imaging Sci., 2 (2009), pp. 323-43] is a fast splitting-based algorithm that solves image reconstruction problems with general l1, e.g., total-variation (TV) and compressed sensing (CS), regularizations by introducing a single variable split to decouple …

In this paper, we show the existence of (co-oriented) contact structures on certain classes of $G_2$-manifolds, and that these two structures are compatible in certain ways. Moreover, we prove that any seven-manifold with a spin structure (and so any manifold with $G_2$-structure) admits an almost contact structure. We…
