With continued reductions in feature size, additional functionality may be added to future microprocessors to boost the performance of important application domains. Due to growth...
Abstract An extension of the Gauss-Newton algorithm is proposed to find local minimizers of penalized nonlinear least squares problems, under generalized Lipschitz assumptions. Co...
Newton’s method is a basic tool in numerical analysis and numerous applications, including operations research and data mining. We survey the history of the method, its main ide...
