We present a nonsmooth optimization technique for nonconvex maximum eigenvalue functions and for nonsmooth functions which are infinite maxima of eigenvalue functions. We prove glo...
This paper looks at a parsing-based alternative to word error rate (WER) for optimizing recognition, SParseval, hypothesizing that it may be a better objective for applications su...

In this paper we describe how the Stepwise Adaptation of Weights (saw) technique can be applied in genetic programming. The saw-ing mechanism has been originally developed for and ...
We consider the following setting: a decision maker must make a decision based on reported data points with binary labels. Subsets of data points are controlled by different selfi...

—We consider constrained minimization of a sum of convex functions over a convex and compact set, when each component function is known only to a specific agent in a timevarying...
