This correspondence disproves the main results in the paper Design of Asymmetric Shift Operators for Efficient Decentralized Subspace Projection by S. Mollaebrahim and B. Beferull-Lozano. Counterexamples and counterproofs are provided when applicable. When those problems can be amended, a correction is suggested. However, in most cases, no correction may be possible since the problem addressed by the aforementioned paper is for the most part intractable.

A number of inference problems with sensor networks involve projecting a measured signal onto a given subspace. In existing decentralized approaches, sensors communicate with their local neighbors to obtain a sequence of iterates that asymptotically converges to the desired projection. In contrast, the present paper develops methods that produce these projections in a finite and approximately minimal number of iterations. Building upon tools from graph signal processing, the problem is cast as the design of a graph filter which, in turn, is reduced to the design of a suitable graph shift operator. Exploiting the eigenstructure of the projection and shift matrices leads to an objective whose minimization yields approximately minimum-order graph filters. To cope with the fact that this problem is not convex, the present work introduces a novel convex relaxation of the number of distinct eigenvalues of a matrix based on the nuclear norm of a Kronecker difference. To tackle the case where there exists no graph filter capable of implementing a certain subspace projection with a given network topology, a second optimization criterion is presented to approximate the desired projection while trading the number of iterations for approximation error. Two algorithms are proposed to optimize the aforementioned criteria based on the alternating-direction method of multipliers. An exhaustive simulation study demonstrates that the obtained filters can effectively obtain subspace projections markedly faster than existing algorithms.

We discuss how to evaluate the proximal operator of a convex and increasing function of a nuclear norm, which forms the key computational step in several first-order optimization algorithms such as (accelerated) proximal gradient descent and ADMM. Va rious special cases of the problem arise in low-rank matrix completion, dropout training in deep learning and high-order low-rank tensor recovery, although they have all been solved on a case-by-case basis. We provide an unified and efficiently computable procedure for solving this problem.
This paper introduces a new method of partitioning the solution space of a multi-objective optimisation problem for parallel processing, called Efficient Projection Partitioning. This method projects solutions down into a single dimension, greatly re ducing the cost of partitioning the search space. We test EPP on a variety of randomly generated multi-objective combinatorial optimisation problems. The results are compared with the state of the art in parallel partitioning, and we show that in all scenarios tested, our new algorithm performs significantly better. Our proposed method allows the generation of non-dominated sets of larger problems with more decision variables or objective functions through the use of highly parallel computational infrastructure. Source code is provided to allow others to utilise, build upon and improve the algorithm

This paper addresses consensus optimization problems in a multi-agent network, where all agents collaboratively find a minimizer for the sum of their private functions. We develop a new decentralized algorithm in which each agent communicates only wi th its neighbors. State-of-the-art decentralized algorithms use communications between either all pairs of adjacent agents or a random subset of them at each iteration. Another class of algorithms uses a random walk incremental strategy, which sequentially activates a succession of nodes; these incremental algorithms require diminishing step sizes to converge to the solution, so their convergence is relatively slow. In this work, we propose a random walk algorithm that uses a fixed step size and converges faster than the existing random walk incremental algorithms. Our algorithm is also communication efficient. Each iteration uses only one link to communicate the latest information for an agent to another. Since this communication rule mimics a man walking around the network, we call our new algorithm Walkman. We establish convergence for convex and nonconvex objectives. For decentralized least squares, we derive a linear rate of convergence and obtain a better communication complexity than those of other decentralized algorithms. Numerical experiments verify our analysis results.
The dynamic response of power grids to small disturbances influences their overall stability. This paper examines the effect of network topology on the linearized time-invariant dynamics of electric power systems. The proposed framework utilizes ${ca l H}_2$-norm based stability metrics to study the optimal placement of lines on existing networks as well as the topology design of new networks. The design task is first posed as an NP-hard mixed-integer nonlinear program (MINLP) that is exactly reformulated as a mixed-integer linear program (MILP) using McCormick linearization. To improve computation time, graph-theoretic properties are exploited to derive valid inequalities (cuts) and tighten bounds on the continuous optimization variables. Moreover, a cutting plane generation procedure is put forth that is able to interject the MILP solver and augment additional constraints to the problem on-the-fly. The efficacy of our approach in designing optimal grid topologies is demonstrated through numerical tests on the IEEE 39-bus network.
