Sparse recovery(or sparse representation) is a widely studied issue in the fields of signal processing, image processing, computer vision, machine learning and so on, since signals such as videos and images, can be sparsely represented under some frames. Most of fast algorithms at present are based on solving l0or l1minimization problems and they are efficient in sparse recovery. However, the theoretically sufficient conditions on the sparsity of the signal for l0or l1minimization problems and algorithms are too strict. In some applications, there are signals with structures, i.e., the nonzero entries have some certain distribution. In this paper,we consider the uniqueness and feasible conditions for piecewise sparse recovery. Piecewise sparsity means that the sparse signal x is a union of several sparse sub-signals xi(i=1, 2,..., N),i.e., x=(x1T, x2T,..., xNT)T, corresponding to the measurement matrix A which is composed of union of bases A=[A1, A2,..., AN]. We introduce the mutual coherence for the sub-matrices Ai(i = 1, 2,..., N) by considering the block structure of A corresponding to piecewise sparse signal x, to study the new upper bounds of ‖x‖0(number of nonzero entries of signal) recovered by both l0and l1optimizations. The structured information of measurement matrix A is exploited to improve the sufficient conditions for successfully piecewise sparse recovery and also improve the reliability of l0and l1optimization models on recovering global sparse vectors.

We propose a strategy for greedy sampling in the context of non-intrusive interpolation-based surrogate modeling for frequency-domain problems. We rely on a non-intrusive and cheap error indicator to drive the adaptive selection of the high-fidelity samples on which the surrogate is based. We develop a theoretical framework to support our proposed indicator. We also present several practical approaches for the termination criterion that is used to end the greedy sampling iterations. To showcase our greedy strategy, we numerically test it in combination with the well-known Loewner framework. To this effect, we consider several benchmarks, highlighting the effectiveness of our adaptive approach in approximating the transfer function of complex systems from a few samples.

Numerous dynamic matching market models pursuing different objectives have been developed for kidney exchange studies. These objectives range from minimizing waiting time and maximizing welfare to reducing the fraction of unmatched agents. Motivated by the medical observation that better matching outcomes are often achieved when donors and recipients share the same race, we extend the dynamic matching model by Akbarpour et al. (2020) to a matching market with two types of agents, in which the compatible probability depends on agent types. In this study, we examine the performance of two matching algorithms, namely greedy algorithm and Patient algorithm, from both theoretical and empirical perspectives. Our aim is to investigate whether delaying the matching process to thicken the market can effectively decrease the fraction of unmatched agents within the market.

System operation features such as grid size, changes in regional distribution of power grid, power grid structure and diversity in networks bring more complexity due to the electrical connections and integrity of the distributed networks. Problems in relay safety and identification of faults in distribution network are the key issues that require immediate solutions due to flaws in the existing relay protection methods. The current paper proposes a relay protection method based on a feeder segment switches in multilevel differential defense-oriented distribution network. A greedy algorithm is devised to set the positions of feeder switches for optimal utilization of energy. After considering the multiple benefits of using feeder switches in the distribution networks, the main feeder is segmented and is linked to contact switches to enhance safety and to reduce the overhead cost of multiple feeder switches. The positioning of feeder switches is determined using greedy algorithm. Main feeder switches of the distribution network select the load switches to meet the requirements of relay protection. In case of occurrence of fault in the distribution network branches, the corresponding sectional feeder switch will trip immediately and the fault will be removed before the resumption of feeder switch. A relay protection method is integrated in the proposed method to keep the distributed network free from faults. The empirical results prove the efficacy of the proposed method with respect to the safety of the relay station, cost saving, determination of faults and consumption of energy. The comparative study with the existing methods reveals that the proposed method has the maximum safety factor of relay protection for the multistage differential distribution network, i.e., about 97%. The proposed method has the least fault location error, it saves operational cost, and it consumes minimal energy as compared to other techniques.

An improved migrating birds optimization (IMBO) algorithm is proposed to solve the hybrid flowshop scheduling problem with lot-streaming of random breakdown (RBHLFS) with the aim of minimizing the total flow time. To ensure the diversity of the initial population, a Nawaz-Enscore-Ham (NEH) heuristic algorithm is used. A greedy algorithm is used to construct a combined neighborhood search structure. An effective local search procedure is utilized to explore potential promising neighborhoods. In addition, a reset mechanism is added to avoid falling into local optimum. Extensive experiments and comparisons demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

The deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for data collection in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is gaining recently more research interest, thanks to the numerous advantages of UAVs. In fact, UAVs can be deployed quickly almost anywhere and are able to access difficult terrains. However, both WSNs and UAV suffer from serious energy limitation challenges. Fortunately, when they are available, using multiple UAVs along with appropriate trajectory planning schemes can highly reduce the negative impact of this problem. In this paper, we deal with the problem of data collection in a WSN assisted by multiple UAVs. Our main goal is to minimize the mission total time by jointly optimizing the trajectories of all the UAVs while serving the sensor nodes (SNs). The mission total time is defined as the time required by the UAVs to transfer energy to all using wireless power transfer (WPT) and collect data from these SNs. In addition to the highly complex optimal solution, we propose two heuristics to solve the formulated problem, namely the nearest insertion algorithm (NIA) and the greedy algorithm (GA).

Weak submodular optimization underpins many problems in signal processing and machine learning. For such problems, under a cardinality constraint, a simple greedy algorithm is guaranteed to find a solution with a value no worse than 1 - e(-gamma) of the optimal. Given the high cost of queries to large-scale signal processing models, the complexity of greedy becomes prohibitive in modern applications. In this work, we study the tradeoff between performance and complexity when one resorts to random sampling strategies to reduce the query complexity of greedy. Specifically, we quantify the effect of uniform sampling strategies on the performance through two criteria: (i) the probability of identifying an optimal subset, and (ii) the suboptimality of the solution's value with respect to the optimal. Building upon this insight, we propose a simple progressive stochastic greedy algorithm, study its approximation guarantees, and consider its applications to dimensionality reduction and feature selection tasks.

In the context of energy management in distributed energy systems, different studies with various approaches have been carried out. This paper proposes a new and simple method to set rational energy trading preferences among microgrids inside an electrical network. To achieve this objective, a framework inspired from the famous optimization Knapsack problem is developed to model the multiobjective function of energy buyers, then a greedy algorithm is used in the solving process. The efficiency of the suggested method has been tested through simulations.
