This paper proposes a family of line-search methods to deal with weighted orthogonal procrustes problems. In particular, the proposed family uses a search direction based on a convex combination ...

Deep learning has been highly successful in recent years and has led to dramatic improvements in multiple domains. Deep-learning algorithms often generalize quite well in practice, namely, given ...

Process integration and optimization are important areas within process system engineering. It identifies targets and utilizes synergies in the overall production process, and minimizes the ...

As a crucial technique for identifying irregular samples or outlier patterns, anomaly detection has broad applications in many fields. Convex analysis (CA) is one of the fundamental methods used in ...
