Adaptive First-Order Methods for General Sparse Inverse Covariance Selection
In this paper, we consider estimating sparse inverse covariance of a Gaussian graphical model whose conditional independence is assumed to be partially known. Similarly as in [5],...

Learning Sparse Gaussian Markov Networks Using a Greedy Coordinate Ascent Approach
In this paper, we introduce a simple but efficient greedy algorithm, called SINCO, for the Sparse INverse COvariance selection problem, which is equivalent to learning a sparse Ga...

Sparse Inverse Covariance Selection via Alternating Linearization Methods
Gaussian graphical models are of great interest in statistical learning. Because the conditional independencies between different nodes correspond to zero entries in the inverse c...
