SLP: A Zero-Contact Non-Invasive Method for Pulmonary Function Testing
Structured Light Plethysmography (SLP) is a novel non-invasive method that uses structured light to perform pulmonary function testing that does not require physical contact with ...

On the Convergence of Bound Optimization Algorithms
Many practitioners who use EM and related algorithms complain that they are sometimes slow. When does this happen, and what can be done about it? In this paper, we study the gener...

An interior-point piecewise linear penalty method for nonlinear programming
We present an interior-point penalty method for nonlinear programming (NLP), where the merit function consists of a piecewise linear penalty function (PLPF) and an 2-penalty functi...

Proximal Alternating Minimization and Projection Methods for Nonconvex Problems: An Approach Based on the Kurdyka-Lojasiewicz In
We study the convergence properties of an alternating proximal minimization algorithm for nonconvex structured functions of the type: L(x, y) = f(x)+Q(x, y)+g(y), where f : Rn → ...
