Difference of Convex functions (DC) Programming and DC Algorithm (DCA) constitute the
backbone of Nonconvex Programming and Global Optimization. The paper is devoted to the …

The year 2015 marks the 30th birthday of DC (Difference of Convex functions) programming
and DCA (DC Algorithms) which constitute the backbone of nonconvex programming and …

We investigate the convex–concave procedure, a local heuristic that utilizes the tools of
convex optimization to find local optima of difference of convex (DC) programming problems …

The idea for this book came from the time the authors spent at the Statistics and Applied
Mathematical Sciences Institute (SAMSI) in Research Triangle Park in North Carolina …

This paper is devoted to a thorough study on convex analysis approach to dc (difference of
convex functions) programming and gives the State of the Art. Main results about dc duality …

Virtual reality (VR) over wireless is emerging as an important use case of 5G networks. Fully-
immersive VR experience requires the wireless delivery of huge data at ultra-low latency …

The DC programming and its DC algorithm (DCA) address the problem of minimizing a
function f= g− h (with g, h being lower semicontinuous proper convex functions on R n) on …

Personalized medicine has received increasing attention among statisticians, computer
scientists, and clinical practitioners. A major component of personalized medicine is the …

DC (difference of convex functions) programming and DC algorithm (DCA) are powerful
tools for nonsmooth nonconvex optimization. This field was created in 1985 by Pham Dinh …

This paper is devoted to difference of convex functions (dc) optimization: dc duality, local
and global optimality conditions in dc programming, the dc algorithm (DCA), and its …
