The proposed function has some properties that are easy for checking. These properties enable us to improve the polynomial complexity bound of a large-update interior-point method （IPM） to O（√n log nlog n/e）, which is the currently best known polynomial complexity bound for the algorithm with the large-update method. Numerical tests were conducted to investigate the behavior of the algorithm with different parameters p, q and θ, where p is the growth degree parameter, q is the barrier degree of the kernel function and θ is the barrier update parameter.展开更多

This paper proposes a practical method for computing the peak output of linear time-invariant and non-anticipative systems for a class of possible sets that are characterized with many bounding conditions on the two- and/or the infinity-norms of the inputs and their derivatives. The original infinite-dimensional convex optimization problem is approximated as a large-scale convex programme defined in a Euclidean space, which are associated with sparse matrices and thus can be solved efficiently in practice. The numerical results show that the method performs satisfactorily, and that using a possible set with many bounding conditions can help to reduce the design conservatism and thereby yield a better match.展开更多

The proposed function is strongly convex. It is not self-regular function and also the usual logarithmic function. The goal of this paper is to investigate such a kernel function and show that the algorithm has favorable complexity bound in terms of the elegant analytic properties of the kernel function. The complexity bound is shown to be O（√n（logn）2 log e/n）. This bound is better than that by the classical primal-dual interior-point methods based on logarithmic barrier function and in optimization fields.

文摘现有的面向大规模数据分类的支持向量机(support vector machine,SVM)对噪声样本敏感,针对这一问题,通过定义软性核凸包和引入pinball损失函数,提出了一种新的软性核凸包支持向量机(soft kernel convex hull support vector machine for large scale noisy datasets,SCH-SVM).SCH-SVM首先定义了软性核凸包的概念,然后选择出能代表样本在核空间几何轮廓的软性核凸包向量,再将其对应的原始空间样本作为训练样本并基于pinball损失函数来寻找两类软性核凸包之间的最大分位数距离.相关理论和实验结果亦证明了所提分类器在训练时间,抗噪能力和支持向量数上的有效性.
