In this study, nonnegative matrix factorization is recast as the problem of approximating a polytope on the probability simplex by another polytope with fewer facets. Working on th...
Abstract. This paper presents a new stochastic preconditioning approach for large sparse matrices. For the class of matrices that are row-wise and column-wise irreducibly diagonall...
Abstract. We present a new derivative-free algorithm, ORBIT, for unconstrained local optimization of computationally expensive functions. A trust-region framework using interpolati...

We present a new method to simulate optical waves in large geometries. This method is based on newly developed finite elements, so-called Trigonometric Finite Wave Elements (TFWEs)...
In this paper, we consider hybrid peer-to-peer systems where users form an unstructured peer-to-peer network with the purpose of assisting a server in the distribution of data. We...
