To obtain the initial pressure from the collected data on a planar sensor arrangement in photoacoustic tomography, there exists an exact analytic frequency domain reconstruction formula. An efficient realization of this formula needs to cope with the evaluation of the datas Fourier transform on a non-equispaced mesh. In this paper, we use the non-uniform fast Fourier transform to handle this issue and show its feasibility in 3D experiments with real and synthetic data. This is done in comparison to the standard approach that uses linear, polynomial or nearest neighbor interpolation. Moreover, we investigate the effect and the utility of flexible sensor location to make optimal use of a limited number of sensor points. The computational realization is accomplished by the use of a multi-dimensional non-uniform fast Fourier algorithm, where non-uniform data sampling is performed both in frequency and spatial domain. Examples with synthetic and real data show that both approaches improve image quality.

We consider the problem of finding the minimizer of a convex function $F: mathbb R^d rightarrow mathbb R$ of the form $F(w) := sum_{i=1}^n f_i(w) + R(w)$ where a low-rank factorization of $ abla^2 f_i(w)$ is readily available. We consider the regime where $n gg d$. As second-order methods prove to be effective in finding the minimizer to a high-precision, in this work, we propose randomized Newton-type algorithms that exploit textit{non-uniform} sub-sampling of ${ abla^2 f_i(w)}_{i=1}^{n}$, as well as inexact updates, as means to reduce the computational complexity. Two non-uniform sampling distributions based on {it block norm squares} and {it block partial leverage scores} are considered in order to capture important terms among ${ abla^2 f_i(w)}_{i=1}^{n}$. We show that at each iteration non-uniformly sampling at most $mathcal O(d log d)$ terms from ${ abla^2 f_i(w)}_{i=1}^{n}$ is sufficient to achieve a linear-quadratic convergence rate in $w$ when a suitable initial point is provided. In addition, we show that our algorithms achieve a lower computational complexity and exhibit more robustness and better dependence on problem specific quantities, such as the condition number, compared to similar existing methods, especially the ones based on uniform sampling. Finally, we empirically demonstrate that our methods are at least twice as fast as Newtons methods with ridge logistic regression on several real datasets.
We consider the problem of asymptotic convergence to invariant sets in interconnected nonlinear dynamic systems. Standard approaches often require that the invariant sets be uniformly attracting. e.g. stable in the Lyapunov sense. This, however, is n either a necessary requirement, nor is it always useful. Systems may, for instance, be inherently unstable (e.g. intermittent, itinerant, meta-stable) or the problem statement may include requirements that cannot be satisfied with stable solutions. This is often the case in general optimization problems and in nonlinear parameter identification or adaptation. Conventional techniques for these cases rely either on detailed knowledge of the systems vector-fields or require boundeness of its states. The presently proposed method relies only on estimates of the input-output maps and steady-state characteristics. The method requires the possibility of representing the system as an interconnection of a stable, contracting, and an unstable, exploratory part. We illustrate with examples how the method can be applied to problems of analyzing the asymptotic behavior of locally unstable systems as well as to problems of parameter identification and adaptation in the presence of nonlinear parametrizations. The relation of our results to conventional small-gain theorems is discussed.
In this paper, we develop a non-uniform sampling approach for fast and efficient path planning of autonomous vehicles. The approach uses a novel non-uniform partitioning scheme that divides the area into obstacle-free convex cells. The partitioning r esults in large cells in obstacle-free areas and small cells in obstacle-dense areas. Subsequently, the boundaries of these cells are used for sampling; thus significantly reducing the burden of uniform sampling. When compared with a standard uniform sampler, this smart sampler significantly 1) reduces the size of the sampling space while providing completeness and optimality guarantee, 2) provides sparse sampling in obstacle-free regions and dense sampling in obstacle-rich regions to facilitate faster exploration, and 3) eliminates the need for expensive collision-checking with obstacles due to the convexity of the cells. This sampling framework is incorporated into the RRT* path planner. The results show that RRT* with the non-uniform sampler gives a significantly better convergence rate and smaller memory footprint as compared to RRT* with a uniform sampler.
We investigate 1) the rate at which refined properties of the empirical risk---in particular, gradients---converge to their population counterparts in standard non-convex learning tasks, and 2) the consequences of this convergence for optimization. O ur analysis follows the tradition of norm-based capacity control. We propose vector-valued Rademacher complexities as a simple, composable, and user-friendly tool to derive dimension-free uniform convergence bounds for gradients in non-convex learning problems. As an application of our techniques, we give a new analysis of batch gradient descent methods for non-convex generalized linear models and non-convex robust regression, showing how to use any algorithm that finds approximate stationary points to obtain optimal sample complexity, even when dimension is high or possibly infinite and multiple passes over the dataset are allowed. Moving to non-smooth models we show----in contrast to the smooth case---that even for a single ReLU it is not possible to obtain dimension-independent convergence rates for gradients in the worst case. On the positive side, it is still possible to obtain dimension-independent rates under a new type of distributional assumption.

We analyze numerically the performance of the near-optimal quadratic dynamical decoupling (QDD) single-qubit decoherence errors suppression method [J. West et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 130501 (2010)]. The QDD sequence is formed by nesting two optima l Uhrig dynamical decoupling sequences for two orthogonal axes, comprising N1 and N2 pulses, respectively. Varying these numbers, we study the decoherence suppression properties of QDD directly by isolating the errors associated with each system basis operator present in the system-bath interaction Hamiltonian. Each individual error scales with the lowest order of the Dyson series, therefore immediately yielding the order of decoherence suppression. We show that the error suppression properties of QDD are dependent upon the parities of N1 and N2, and near-optimal performance is achieved for general single-qubit interactions when N1=N2.
