Safe screening rules for l0-regression from perspective relaxations

A Atamturk, A Gómez - International conference on machine …, 2020 - proceedings.mlr.press
We give safe screening rules to eliminate variables from regression with $\ell_0 $
regularization or cardinality constraint. These rules are based on guarantees that a feature …

Sparse and smooth signal estimation: Convexification of l0-formulations

A Atamturk, A Gómez, S Han - Journal of Machine Learning Research, 2021 - jmlr.org
Signal estimation problems with smoothness and sparsity priors can be naturally modeled
as quadratic optimization with ℓ0-" norm" constraints. Since such problems are nonconvex …

Rank-one convexification for sparse regression

A Atamturk, A Gomez - arxiv preprint arxiv:1901.10334, 2019 - arxiv.org
Sparse regression models are increasingly prevalent due to their ease of interpretability and
superior out-of-sample performance. However, the exact model of sparse regression with an …

abess: a fast best-subset selection library in python and R

J Zhu, X Wang, L Hu, J Huang, K Jiang, Y Zhang… - Journal of Machine …, 2022 - jmlr.org
We introduce a new library named abess that implements a unified framework of best-subset
selection for solving diverse machine learning problems, eg, linear regression, classification …

Convexification techniques for fractional programs

T He, S Liu, M Tawarmalani - Mathematical Programming, 2024 - Springer
This paper develops a correspondence relating convex hulls of fractional functions with
those of polynomial functions over the same domain. Using this result, we develop a number …

Learning optimal prescriptive trees from observational data

N Jo, S Aghaei, A Gómez, P Vayanos - arxiv preprint arxiv:2108.13628, 2021 - arxiv.org
We consider the problem of learning an optimal prescriptive tree (ie, an interpretable
treatment assignment policy in the form of a binary tree) of moderate depth, from …

A mathematical programming approach for integrated multiple linear regression subset selection and validation

S Chung, YW Park, T Cheong - Pattern Recognition, 2020 - Elsevier
Subset selection for multiple linear regression aims to construct a regression model that
minimizes errors by selecting a small number of explanatory variables. Once a model is …

Branch-and-bound algorithm for optimal sparse canonical correlation analysis

A Watanabe, R Tamura, Y Takano… - Expert Systems with …, 2023 - Elsevier
Canonical correlation analysis (CCA) is a family of multivariate statistical methods for
extracting mutual information contained in multiple datasets. To improve the interpretability …

[HTML][HTML] Bilevel optimization for feature selection in the data-driven newsvendor problem

B Serrano, S Minner, M Schiffer, T Vidal - European Journal of Operational …, 2024 - Elsevier
We study the feature-based newsvendor problem, in which a decision-maker has access to
historical data consisting of demand observations and exogenous features. In this setting …

An efficient optimization approach for best subset selection in linear regression, with application to model selection and fitting in autoregressive time-series

LD Gangi, M Lapucci, F Schoen, A Sortino - … Optimization and Applications, 2019 - Springer
In this paper we consider two relevant optimization problems: the problem of selecting the
best sparse linear regression model and the problem of optimally identifying the parameters …
