An Inverse Power Method for Nonlinear Eigenproblems with Applications in 1-Spectral Clustering and Sparse PCA
Many problems in machine learning and statistics can be formulated as (generalized) eigenproblems. In terms of the associated optimization problem, computing linear eigenvectors a...

An Improved Memetic Algorithm for Break Scheduling
In this paper we consider solving a complex real life break scheduling problem. This problem of high practical relevance arises in many working areas, e.g. in air traffic control a...

A scalable trust-region algorithm with application to mixed-norm regression
We present a new algorithm for minimizing a convex loss-function subject to regularization. Our framework applies to numerous problems in machine learning and statistics; notably,...

Robust Discriminant Analysis Based on Nonparametric Maximum Entropy
In this paper, we propose a Robust Discriminant Analysis based on maximum entropy (MaxEnt) criterion (MaxEnt-RDA), which is derived from a nonparametric estimate of Renyi’s quadr...
