A new heuristic approach for non-convex optimization problems
In this work a new optimization method, called the heuristic Kalman algorithm (HKA), is presented. This new algorithm is proposed as an alternative approach for solving continuous,...

Solving minones-2-sat as Fast as vertex cover
The problem of finding a satisfying assignment for a 2-SAT formula that minimizes the number of variables that are set to 1 (min ones 2–sat) is NP-complete. It generalizes the w...

Minimizing communication cost in a distributed Bayesian network using a decentralized MDP
In complex distributed applications, a problem is often decomposed into a set of subproblems that are distributed to multiple agents. We formulate this class of problems with a tw...

Network Flow Algorithms for Structured Sparsity
We consider a class of learning problems that involve a structured sparsityinducing norm defined as the sum of -norms over groups of variables. Whereas a lot of effort has been pu...
