Regularized Decomposition of High-Dimensional Multistage Stochastic Programs with Markov Uncertainty
We develop a quadratic regularization approach for the solution of
high-dimensional multistage stochastic optimization problems characterized by a
potentially large number of time periods/stages (e.g. hundreds), a
high-dimensional resource state variable, and a Markov information process. The
resulting algorithms are shown to converge to an optimal policy after a finite
number of iterations under mild technical assumptions. Computational
experiments are conducted using the setting of optimizing energy storage over a
large transmission grid, which motivates both the spatial and temporal
dimensions of our problem. Our numerical results indicate that the proposed
methods exhibit significantly faster convergence than their classical
counterparts, with greater gains observed for higher-dimensional problems
Large margin filtering for signal sequence labeling
Signal Sequence Labeling consists in predicting a sequence of labels given an
observed sequence of samples. A naive way is to filter the signal in order to
reduce the noise and to apply a classification algorithm on the filtered
samples. We propose in this paper to jointly learn the filter with the
classifier leading to a large margin filtering for classification. This method
allows to learn the optimal cutoff frequency and phase of the filter that may
be different from zero. Two methods are proposed and tested on a toy dataset
and on a real life BCI dataset from BCI Competition III.Comment: IEEE International Conference on Acoustics Speech and Signal
