Stochastic Dykstra Algorithms for Metric Learning on Positive Semi-Definite Cone

Recently, covariance descriptors have received much attention as powerful representations of set of points. In this research, we present a new metric learning algorithm for covariance descriptors based on the Dykstra algorithm, in which the current solution is projected onto a half-space at each iteration, and runs at O(n) time. We empirically demonstrate that randomizing the order of half-spac...

Codes of Forest Practice and Related Research Needs

Codes of forest practice are sets of regulations or guidelines developed by governments or other organisations to assist forest managers select practices to be followed when carrying out forest management and utilisation operations. These practices, when correctly applied, should meet standards for sustainable forest management (Dykstra 1996; Dykstra and Heinrich 1996). A code of practice is al...

The Marinari - Parisi Model and Collective Field Theory

We derive the supersymmetric collective field theory for the Marinari-Parisi model. For a specific choice of the superpotential, to leading order we find a one parameter family of ground states which can be connected via instantons. At this level of analysis the instanton size implied by the underlying matrix model does not appear. 2/11/92 † bitnet jdcohn@fnal and dykstra@fnal .
