Nonnegative matrix factorization : complexity, algorithms and applications
TLDR
This thesis explores a closely related problem, namely nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF), a low-rank matrix approximation problem with nonnegativity constraints, and makes connections with well-known problems in graph theory, combinatorial optimization and computational geometry.

PROX-METHOD WITH RATE OF CONVERGENCE O(1/t) FOR VARIATIONAL INEQUALITIES WITH LIPSCHITZ CONTINUOUS MONOTONE OPERATORS AND SMOOTH CONVEX-CONCAVE SADDLE POINT PROBLEMS∗
We propose a prox-type method with efficiency estimate O( −1) for approximating saddle points of convex-concave C1,1 functions and solutions of variational inequalities with monotone Lipschitz…

Maximum likelihood estimation of Gaussian graphical models : Numerical implementation and topology selection
TLDR
This paper describes algorithms for maximum likelihood estimation of Gaussian graphical models with conditional independence constraints, and presents a dual method suited for graphs that are nearly chordal, and makes several connections between sparse matrix algorithms and the theory of normal graphical model with chordal graphs.
Sparse Principal Component Analysis
TLDR
This work introduces a new method called sparse principal component analysis (SPCA) using the lasso (elastic net) to produce modified principal components with sparse loadings and shows that PCA can be formulated as a regression-type optimization problem.
Decoding by linear programming
TLDR
F can be recovered exactly by solving a simple convex optimization problem (which one can recast as a linear program) and numerical experiments suggest that this recovery procedure works unreasonably well; f is recovered exactly even in situations where a significant fraction of the output is corrupted.
Smooth Optimization for Sparse Semidefinite Programs
Smooth minimization of non-smooth functions
TLDR
A new approach for constructing efficient schemes for non-smooth convex optimization is proposed, based on a special smoothing technique, which can be applied to functions with explicit max-structure, and can be considered as an alternative to black-box minimization.

TLDR
It is shown that outward k-neighborliness is equivalent to the statement that, whenever y = Ax has a non negative solution with at most k nonzeros, it is the nonnegative solution to y =Ax having minimal sum.
Bayesian Covariance Selection ∗
TLDR
A novel structural learning method called HdBCS that performs covariance selection in a Bayesian framework for datasets with tens of thousands of variables and illustrates the use with an example from a large-scale gene expression study of breast cancer.
