We consider a system of linear constraints over any finite Abelian group G of the following form: i(x1, . . . , xn) ≡ i,1x1 + · · · + i,nxn ∈ Ai for i = 1, . . . , t and e...
In this paper, we cast discriminative training problems into standard linear programming (LP) optimization. Besides being convex and having globally optimal solution(s), LP progra...
In this paper, we propose a novel method for blind source separation (BSS) based on time-frequency sparseness (TF) that can estimate the number of sources and time-frequency masks,...
Time-indexed formulations for machine scheduling problems have received a great deal of attention; not only do the linear programming relaxations provide strong lower bounds, but ...

We establish a nonlinear lower bound for halfplane range searching over a group. Specifically, we show that summing up the weights of n (weighted) points within n halfplanes requir...
