Methods for `1-type regularization have been widely used in Gaussian graphical model selection tasks to encourage sparse structures. However, often we would like to include more structural information than mere sparsity. In this work, we focus on learning so-called “scale-free” models, a common feature that appears in many real-work networks. We replace the `1 regularization with a power law re...

Lanczos-hybrid regularization methods have been proposed as effective approaches for solving largescale ill-posed inverse problems. Lanczos methods restrict the solution to lie in a Krylov subspace, but they are hindered by semi-convergence behavior, in that the quality of the solution first increases and then decreases. Hybrid methods apply a standard regularization technique, such as Tikhonov...

We consider a local regularization method for the solution of first-kind Volterra integral equations with convolution kernel. The local regularization is based on a splitting of the original Volterra operator into “local” and “global” parts, and a use of Tikhonov regularization to stabilize the inversion of the local operator only. The regularization parameters for the local procedure include t...

Abstract Local regularization methods allow for the application of sequential solution techniques for the solution of Volterra problems, retaining the causal structure of the original Volterra problem and leading to fast solution techniques. Stability and convergence of these methods was shown to hold on a large class of linear Volterra problems, i.e., the class of ν-smoothing problems for ν = ...

In this paper, we propose an inexact alternating direction method with square quadratic proximal  (SQP) regularization for  the structured variational inequalities. The predictor is obtained via solving SQP system  approximately  under significantly  relaxed accuracy criterion  and the new iterate is computed directly by an explicit formula derived from the original SQP method. Under appropriat...

Parameter identification problems for partial differential equations usually lead to nonlinear inverse problems. A typical property of such problems is their instability, which requires regularization techniques, like, e.g., Tikhonov regularization. The main focus of this paper will be on efficient methods for determining a suitable regularization parameter by using adaptive finite element disc...

Regularization techniques have attracted many researches in the past decades. Most focus on designing the regularization term, and few on the optimal regularization parameter selection, especially for faulty neural networks. As is known that in the real world, the node faults often inevitably take place, which would lead to many faulty network patterns. If employing the conventional method, i.e...

Although the residual method, or constrained regularization, is frequently used in applications, a detailed study of its properties is still missing. This sharply contrasts the progress of the theory of Tikhonov regularization, where a series of new results for regularization in Banach spaces has been published in the recent years. The present paper intends to bridge the gap between the existin...

We present a principled method to combine kernels under joint regularization constraints. Central to our method is an extension of the representer theorem for handling multiple joint regularization constraints. Experimental evidence shows the feasibility of our approach.
