efficiently compute adjoint derivatives, or generate MATLAB code that computes adjoint derivatives. These implementations are designed to be relatively straightforward to understand and adapt, and ...

The process of combining functions so that the output of one function becomes the input of another is known as a composition of functions. The resulting function is known as a composite function. To ...

Abstract: In this article, we consider the problem of decentralized composite optimization over a connected and symmetric graph, in which each node holds its own agent-specific private convex ...

Given \(f(x) = 3x + 2\), we are often asked to find \(f(2)\) or \(f( - 3)\). To do this we substitute \(2\) or \(- 3\) for \(x\). So, \(f(2) = 3(2) + 2 = 8\) and \(f ...

The Annals of Statistics, Vol. 37, No. 3 (Jun., 2009), pp. 1360-1404 (45 pages) We study the problem of nonparametric estimation of a multivariate function $g ...

Roots are the classical model system to study the organization and dynamics of organ growth zones. Profiles of the velocity of root elements relative to the apex have generally been considered to be ...

Abstract: The composite quadratic function based on a group of quadratic functions was introduced in our earlier paper. Some important properties of this Lyapunov function were revealed. We showed ...

An important issue in motor control is understanding the basic principles underlying the accomplishment of natural movements. According to optimal control theory, the problem can be stated in these ...
