We provide a full characterization of the oblique projector $U(VU)^+V$ in the general case where the range of $U$ and the null space of $V$ are not complementary subspaces. We discuss the new result in the context of constrained least squares minimization.

For linearly constrained least-squares problems that depend on a vector of parameters, this paper proposes techniques for reducing the number of involved optimization variables. After first eliminating equality constraints in a numerically robust way by QR factorization, we propose a technique based on singular value decomposition (SVD) and unsupervised learning, that we call $K$-SVD, and neural classifiers to automatically partition the set of parameter vectors in $K$ nonlinear regions in which the original problem is approximated by using a smaller set of variables. For the special case of parametric constrained least-squares problems that arise from model predictive control (MPC) formulations, we propose a novel and very efficient QR factorization method for equality constraint elimination. Together with SVD or $K$-SVD, the method provides a numerically robust alternative to standard condensing and move blocking, and to other complexity reduction methods for MPC based on basis functions. We show the good performance of the proposed techniques in numerical tests and in a linearized MPC problem of a nonlinear benchmark process.
In this paper, the optimization problem of the supervised distance preserving projection (SDPP) for data dimension reduction (DR) is considered, which is equivalent to a rank constrained least squares semidefinite programming (RCLSSDP). In order to o vercome the difficulties caused by rank constraint, the difference-of-convex (DC) regularization strategy was employed, then the RCLSSDP is transferred into a series of least squares semidefinite programming with DC regularization (DCLSSDP). An inexact proximal DC algorithm with sieving strategy (s-iPDCA) is proposed for solving the DCLSSDP, whose subproblems are solved by the accelerated block coordinate descent (ABCD) method. Convergence analysis shows that the generated sequence of s-iPDCA globally converges to stationary points of the corresponding DC problem. To show the efficiency of our proposed algorithm for solving the RCLSSDP, the s-iPDCA is compared with classical proximal DC algorithm (PDCA) and the PDCA with extrapolation (PDCAe) by performing DR experiment on the COIL-20 database, the results show that the s-iPDCA outperforms the PDCA and the PDCAe in solving efficiency. Moreover, DR experiments for face recognition on the ORL database and the YaleB database demonstrate that the rank constrained kernel SDPP (RCKSDPP) is effective and competitive by comparing the recognition accuracy with kernel semidefinite SDPP (KSSDPP) and kernal principal component analysis (KPCA).
Least-squares fits are an important tool in many data analysis applications. In this paper, we review theoretical results, which are relevant for their application to data from counting experiments. Using a simple example, we illustrate the well know n fact that commonly used variants of the least-squares fit applied to Poisson-distributed data produce biased estimates. The bias can be overcome with an iterated weighted least-squares method, which produces results identical to the maximum-likelihood method. For linear models, the iterated weighted least-squares method converges faster than the equivalent maximum-likelihood method, and does not require problem-specific starting values, which may be a practical advantage. The equivalence of both methods also holds for binomially distributed data. We further show that the unbinned maximum-likelihood method can be derived as a limiting case of the iterated least-squares fit when the bin width goes to zero, which demonstrates a deep connection between the two methods.
The problem of fitting experimental data to a given model function $f(t; p_1,p_2,dots,p_N)$ is conventionally solved numerically by methods such as that of Levenberg-Marquardt, which are based on approximating the Chi-squared measure of discrepancy b y a quadratic function. Such nonlinear iterative methods are usually necessary unless the function $f$ to be fitted is itself a linear function of the parameters $p_n$, in which case an elementary linear Least Squares regression is immediately available. When linearity is present in some, but not all, of the parameters, we show how to streamline the optimization method by reducing the nonlinear activity to the nonlinear parameters only. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach. The main idea is to replace entries corresponding to the linear terms in the numerical difference quotients with an optimal value easily obtained by linear regression. More generally, the idea applies to minimization problems which are quadratic in some of the parameters. We show that the covariance matrix of $chi^2$ remains the same even though the derivatives are calculated in a different way. For this reason, the standard non-linear optimization methods can be fully applied.
We propose an efficient algorithm for solving group synchronization under high levels of corruption and noise, while we focus on rotation synchronization. We first describe our recent theoretically guaranteed message passing algorithm that estimates the corruption levels of the measured group ratios. We then propose a novel reweighted least squares method to estimate the group elements, where the weights are initialized and iteratively updated using the estimated corruption levels. We demonstrate the superior performance of our algorithm over state-of-the-art methods for rotation synchronization using both synthetic and real data.
