The Iteration Solution of Matrix Equation AXB=C Subject to a Linear Matrix Inequality Constraint by Na Huang, Changfeng Ma

“…We propose a feasible and effective iteration method to find solutions to the matrix equation AXB=C subject to a matrix inequality constraint DXE≥F, where DXE≥F means that the matrix DXE-F is nonnegative. And the global convergence results are obtained. Some numerical results are reported to illustrate the applicability of the method.…”

Sign Prediction on Unlabeled Social Networks Using Branch and Bound Optimized Transfer Learning by Weiwei Yuan, Jiali Pang, Donghai Guan, Yuan Tian, Abdullah Al-Dhelaan, Mohammed Al-Dhelaan

“…Second, their generalization performance is not guaranteed due to that fact that the solution of their objective functions is not global optimal solution. To solve these problems, we propose a novel sign prediction on unlabeled social networks using branch and bound optimized transfer learning (SP_BBTL) sign prediction model. …”
