Scaling Algorithms for M - convex Function Minimization
M-convex functions have various desirable properties as convexity in discrete optimization. We can find a global minimum of an M-convex function by a greedy algorithm, i.e., so-called descent algorithms work for the minimization. In this paper, we apply a scaling technique to a greedy algorithm and propose an efficient algorithm for the minimization of an M-convex function. Computational result...
متن کاملMinimization of an M-convex Function
We study the minimization of an M-convex function introduced by Murota. It is shown that any vector in the domain can be easily separated from a minimizer of the function. Based on this property, we develop a polynomial time algorithm.
متن کاملAsymptotics for Lasso - Type Estimators
We consider the asymptotic behavior of regression estimators that minimize the residual sum of squares plus a penalty proportional to ∑ βj γ for some γ > 0. These estimators include the Lasso as a special case when γ = 1. Under appropriate conditions, we show that the limiting distributions can have positive probability mass at 0 when the true value of the parameter is 0. We also consider asymp...
متن کاملM-estimators as GMM for Stable Laws Discretizations
This paper is devoted to "Some Discrete Distributions Generated by Standard Stable Densities" (in short, Discrete Stable Densities). The large-sample properties of M-estimators as obtained by the "Generalized Method of Moments" (GMM) are discussed for such distributions. Some corollaries are proposed. Moreover, using the respective results we demonstrate the large-sample pro...
متن کاملHigher order asymptotics for the MSE of M-estimators on shrinking neighborhoods
In the setup of shrinking neighborhoods about an ideal central model, Rieder (1994) determines the as. linear estimator minimaxing MSE on these neighborhoods. We address the question to which degree this as. optimality carries over to finite sample size. We consider estimation of a one-dim. location parameter by means of M-estimators Sn with monotone influence curve ψ . Using Donoho and Huber (...
