A Regularized Alternating Least-Squares Method for Minimizing a Sum of Squared Euclidean Norms with Rank Constraint by Pablo Soto-Quiros

“…The objective of the MSEN problem is to find a vector x such that it minimizes a sum of Euclidean norms of systems of equations. In this paper, we propose a modification of the MSEN problem, which we call the problem of minimizing a sum of squared Euclidean norms with rank constraint, or simply the MSSEN-RC problem. …”

Platitudes and opacity: Explaining philosophical uncertainty by Eriksson John, Francén Ragnar

“…This paper discusses this philosophical methodology in light of the fact that the propositions identified as platitudes are not obvious truths-they are propositions we can be uncertain about. This, we argue, is a kind of fundamental philosophical uncertainty, and we develop an account of fundamental uncertainty (for both philosophical and other issues). …”
