Operator splitting algorithms are a cornerstone of modern first-order optimization, decomposing complex problems into simpler subproblems solved via proximal operators. However, most functions lack closed-form proximal operators, which has long restricted these methods to a narrow set of problems. H…
Representation learning is typically applied to only one mode of a data matrix, either its rows or columns. Yet in many applications, there is an underlying geometry to both the rows and the columns. We propose utilizing this coupled structure to perform co-manifold learning: uncovering the underlyi…
Estimation in generalized linear models (GLM) is complicated by the presence of constraints. One can handle constraints by maximizing a penalized log-likelihood. Penalties such as the lasso are effective in high dimensions but often lead to severe shrinkage. This paper explores instead penalizing th…
