An Optimal-Storage Approach to Semidefinite Programming Using Approximate Complementarity

Volkan Cevher, Alp Yurtsever

This paper develops a new storage-optimal algorithm that provably solves almost all semidefinite programs (SDPs). This method is particularly effective for weakly constrained SDPs under appropriate regularity conditions. The key idea is to formulate an app ...

Caching (Bivariate) Gaussians

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Guillaume Jean Op 't Veld

Caching is a technique that alleviates networks during peak hours by transmitting partial information before a request for any is made. In a lossy setting of Gaussian databases, we study a single-user model in which good caching strategies minimize the dat ...
