High-dimensional Poisson reduced-rank models have been considered for statistical inference on low-dimensional locations of the individuals based on the observations of high-dimensional count vectors. In this study, we assume sparsity on a so-called loading matrix to enhance its interpretability. The sparsity assumption leads to the use of L-1 penalty, for the estimation of the loading. We provide novel computational and theoretical analyses for the corresponding penalized Poisson maximum likelihood estimation. We establish theoretical convergence rates for the parameters under weak-dependence conditions;this implies consistency even in large-dimensional problems. To implement the proposed method involving several computational issues, including nonconvex log-likelihoods, L-1 penalty, and orthogonal constraints, we developed an iterative algorithm. Further, we propose a Bayesian-Information-Criteria-based penalty parameter selection, which works well in the implementation. Some numerical evidence is provided by conducting real-data-based simulation analyses and the proposed method is illustrated with the analysis of German party manifesto data.

The paper considers the generation of effective quantization scales which meet any quality criteria under any constrains. The analysis of work of available methods allows a concept of a heuristic iterative algorithm for generating near-optimal quantization scales. The concept uses a uniform scale as an initial approach followed by an iterative target-criterion-optimizing recalculation of quantization interval boundaries with adhering to the constrains at each iteration. The formal description of the algorithm is presented. The software implementation of the algorithm is incorporated into the hierarchical image-compression method. The numerical experiments are carried out to test the efficiency of the algorithm and substantiate the convergence of the algorithm to the best solution.

This paper proposes a self-calibrated sparse learning approach for estimating a sparse target vector, which is a product of a precision matrix and a vector, and investigates its application to finance to provide an innovative construction of a relative-volatility-managed portfolio. The proposed iterative algorithm, called DECODE, jointly estimates a performance measure of the market and the effective parameter vector in the optimal portfolio solution, where the relative-volatility timing is introduced into the risk exposure of an efficient portfolio via the control of its sparsity. The portfolio's risk exposure level, which is linked to its sparsity in the proposed framework, is automatically tuned with the latest market condition without using cross validation. The algorithm is efficient as it costs only a few computations of quadratic programming. We prove that the iterative algorithm converges and show the oracle inequalities of the DECODE, which provide sufficient conditions for a consistent estimate of an optimal portfolio. The algorithm can also handle the curse of dimensionality in that the number of training samples is less than the number of assets. Our empirical studies of over-12-year backtest illustrate the relative-volatility timing feature of the DECODE and the superior out-of-sample performance of the DECODE portfolio, which beats the equally weighted portfolio and improves over the shrinkage portfolio.

In this paper, we consider the parameter estimation problem of dual-frequency signals disturbed by stochastic noise. The signal model is a highly nonlinear function with respect to the frequencies and phases, and the gradient method cannot obtain the accurate parameter estimates. Based on the Newton search, we derive an iterative algorithm for estimating all parameters, including the unknown amplitudes, frequencies, and phases. Furthermore, by using the parameter decomposition, a hierarchical least squares and gradient-based iterative algorithm is proposed for improving the computational efficiency. A gradient-based iterative algorithm is given for comparisons. The numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the validity of the proposed algorithms.

This paper focuses on a new identification method for multiple-input single output (MISO) Wiener nonlinear systems, in which the static nonlinear block is assumed to be a polynomial. The basic idea is to establish a MISO Wiener nonlinear identification model with polynomial nonlinearities by means of the key term separation principle. Then, a new identification method based on Levenberg-Marquardt iterative (LMI) search techniques, which can make full use of all the measured input and output data, but also automatically change the search step-size according to the change values of the quadratic criterion function, is derived to obtain an accurate and fast parameter estimation of the model. Finally, the simulation results demonstrate the efficacy of this method.

In this article, we propose two new iterative algorithms to solve the frequency-limited Riemannian optimization model order reduction problems of linear and bilinear systems. Different from the existing Riemannian optimization methods, we design a new Riemannian conjugate gradient scheme based on the Riemannian geometry notions on a product manifold, and then generate a new search direction. Theoretical analysis shows that the resulting search direction is always descent with depending neither on the line search used, nor on the convexity of the cost function. The proposed algorithms are also suitable for generating reduced systems over a frequency interval in bandpass form. Finally, two numerical examples are simulated to demonstrate the efficiency of our algorithms.

The difference-map (DM) algorithm is an iterative method to retrieve the image of an object from its diffraction pattern. Our study proposes the use of nonnegative constraints, reducing the number of unknown variables by half, on both the real and imaginary parts of the object space to reconstruct the image of a complex-valued object in the iterative process of the DM algorithm. The feasibility of the algorithm in biological cell applications was demonstrated using both simulations and optical laser coherent diffraction experiments. The results show that a more accurate image of the object can be retrieved using a loose support by nonnegative constraints than by the same support alone. The comparison indicates that the DM algorithm is superior to the hybrid input-output algorithm in the presence of nonnegative constraints. Therefore, during the execution of a DM algorithm, a loose support allows for more accurate reconstruction than a tight support, which can hardly be found in most cases because of the noise blurring of the retrieved image, and considerable reduction in the reconstruction errors.

An iterative algorithm based on the Gerchberg-Saxton (GS) algorithm to control both the phase and amplitude of an optical beam in the output plane of a beam-shaping platform is proposed in this paper. In the proposed algorithm, both the phase and the amplitude in the non-zero optical intensity region of a beam in the output plane are constrained, whereas the phase in the other region in the output plane is constraint-free. Thus, both the amplitude and phase distributions in the desired region of the output beam can be controlled with a phase-only hologram. The effectiveness of the algorithm is verified with both the simulations and experiments. The algorithm converges fast and is easy to implement. With this algorithm, we can design various novel optical beams, specifically, the beams with a phase-gradient, which would have extensive applications in areas such as optical trapping.

Rotary parts are crucial to transmission equipment. Measuring and analyzing the eccentricity of rotary parts enables the monitoring of vibrations in machinery, ensures smooth operation, and reduces equipment maintenance costs. The accurate measurement and modification of eccentricity are the premise to ensure rotary parts' quality, however, existing measurement methods are computationally inefficient, complex, and expensive to implement, and limited in scope. In this paper, a novel and generalized precision measurement method is proposed to accurately and efficiently evaluate rotary parts' eccentricity parameters, including attitude angle, eccentricity, and eccentric angle. This precision measurement method includes a lever measuring mechanism with a spherical probe and a corresponding efficient signal processing algorithm. The measuring mechanism has a simple structure and can effectively measure arbitrary cross-sections, and its design and optimization principles are investigated and presented thoroughly. The signal processing algorithm can efficiently extract eccentricity parameters of measured cross-sections. This proposed method has proven to overcome the limitations of literacy methods and exhibits generality and anti-interference. Simulation calculation and experimental verification are used to evaluate the effectiveness, computation efficiency, applicability, and repeatability. The proposed method exhibits tremendous potential in a diverse range of applications, such as detecting eccentricity and correcting errors for mechanical measurements, aerospace, equipment manufacturing, and other related fields.

In this paper, we use resolvent operator technology to construct a viscosity approximate algorithm to approximate a common solution of split variational inclusion problem and split fixed point problem for an averaged mapping in real Hilbert spaces. Further, we prove that the sequences generated by the proposed iterative method converge strongly to a common solution of split variational inclusion problem and split fixed point problem for averaged mappings which is also the unique solution of the variational inequality problem. The results presented here improve and extend the corresponding results in this area.
