Abstract In this paper, we revisit some elements of the theory self-concordant functions. We replace notion barrier by a new set-limited function, which forms wider class. show that proper functions ensure polynomial time complexity corresponding path-following method (PFM). Our PFM follows deviated path, connects an arbitrary feasible point with solution problem. present applications our appro...

Most object detection methods use rectangular bounding boxes to represent the object, while representative points network (RepPoints) employs a point set describe object. The RepPoints can provide more fine-grained localization and facilitates classification. However, it ignores difference between classification tasks. Therefore, lightweight with decoupling of sampling (LRP-DS) is proposed in t...
