26 Jul '17

Speaker: Bruno Iannazzo Affiliation: Università di Perugia, Italy Time: Thursday 2017-08-27, h. 11:00 Place: Sala Seminari Est, Dipartimento di Informatica, Università di Pisa Title: The Riemannian Barzilai-Borwein algorithm and the matrix geometric mean computation Abstract: We consider the problem of computing the geometric mean of positive definite matrices, the so-called Karcher mean. For this purpose, we adapt the Barzilai-Borwein method from nonlinear optimization to Riemannian manifold … [View More]
