Floating operation is very critical in power management in hard disk drive (HDD), during which no control command is applied to the read/write head but a fixed current to counteract actuator flex bias. External disturbance induced drift of head may result in interference of head and bump on the disk during drifting, leading to consequent scratches and head degradation, which is a severe reliability concern in HDD. This paper proposes a unique systematic methodology to minimize the chances of hitting bump on the disk during drive floating. Essentially, it provides a heuristic solution to a class of max-min optimization problem which achieves desirable trade-off between optimality and computation complexity. Multivariable nonlinear optimization problem of this sort is reduced from NP-hard to an arithmetic problem. Also, worst-case is derived for arbitrary bump locations.
Many recent AI architectures are inspired by zero-sum games, however, the behavior of their dynamics is still not well understood. Inspired by this, we study standard gradient descent ascent (GDA) dynamics in a specific class of non-convex non-concav
We consider the design of a fair sensor schedule for a number of sensors monitoring different linear time-invariant processes. The largest average remote estimation error among all processes is to be minimized. We first consider a general setup for t
Adversarial formulations such as generative adversarial networks (GANs) have rekindled interest in two-player min-max games. A central obstacle in the optimization of such games is the rotational dynamics that hinder their convergence. Existing metho
We provide a first-order oracle complexity lower bound for finding stationary points of min-max optimization problems where the objective function is smooth, nonconvex in the minimization variable, and strongly concave in the maximization variable. W
Distributionally robust supervised learning (DRSL) is emerging as a key paradigm for building reliable machine learning systems for real-world applications -- reflecting the need for classifiers and predictive models that are robust to the distributi
