报告摘要:
The Largrange programming neural network approach provides a general framework for solving constrianed optimization problems. The major limitation of the LPNN approach is that the objective function and the constraints should be twice differentiable. Since sparse approximation involves non-differentiable functions, the original LPNN approach is not suitable for recovering sparse signals. This talk presents a new formulation of the LPNN approach based on the concept of the local competition algorithm (LCA) and subdifferential. Unlike the classical LCA approach which is able to solve unconstrained optimization problems only, the proposed LPNN approach is able to solve the constrained optimization problems in sparse approximation. Three problems in sparse approximation will be discussed in this talk. They are basis pursuit (BP), basis pursuit denoise (BPDN), and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO).
