Hausdorff core of a one reflex vertex polygon
In this paper we present a polynomial time algorithm for computing a Hausdorff core of a polygon with a single reflex vertex. A Hausdorff core of a polygon P is a convex polygon Q...

Tighter Bounds for Structured Estimation
Large-margin structured estimation methods minimize a convex upper bound of loss functions. While they allow for efficient optimization algorithms, these convex formulations are n...

A Minimax Theorem with Applications to Machine Learning, Signal Processing, and Finance
This paper concerns a fractional function of the form xT a/ xT Bx, where B is positive definite. We consider the game of choosing x from a convex set, to maximize the function, an...

Computational studies using a novel simplicial-approximation based algorithm for MINLP optimization
Significant advances have been made in the last two decades for the effective solution of mixed integer non-linear programming (MINLP) problems, mainly by exploiting the special s...
