Greedy Approaches to Symmetric Orthogonal Tensor Decomposition

Cun Mu, Daniel Hsu, Donald Goldfarb

Finding the symmetric and orthogonal decomposition (SOD) of a tensor is a recurring problem in signal processing, machine learning and statistics. In this paper, we review, establi…

Using Negative Curvature in Solving Nonlinear Programs

Donald Goldfarb, Cun Mu, John Wright +1

Minimization methods that search along a curvilinear path composed of a non-ascent nega- tive curvature direction in addition to the direction of steepest descent, dating back to t…

Successive Rank-One Approximations for Nearly Orthogonally Decomposable Symmetric Tensors

Cun Mu, Daniel Hsu, Donald Goldfarb

Many idealized problems in signal processing, machine learning and statistics can be reduced to the problem of finding the symmetric canonical decomposition of an underlying symmet…

Toward Guaranteed Illumination Models for Non-Convex Objects

Yuqian Zhang, Cun Mu, Han-wen Kuo +1

Illumination variation remains a central challenge in object detection and recognition. Existing analyses of illumination variation typically pertain to convex, Lambertian objects,…
