An indispensable optimization step (referred to as w-optimization) involved in the split CIF concerns the performance and implementation efficiency of the Split CIF, but explanation on w-optimization is neglected in the paper [1] that provides a theoretical foundation for the Split CIF. This note complements [1] by providing a theoretical proof for the convexity of the w-optimization problem involved in the split CIF (convexity is always a desired property for optimization problems as it facilitates optimization considerably).","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2101.10159v3","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2101.10159v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"on-w-optimization-of-the-split-covariance","repo_url":"https://github.com/li-hao-sjtu/splitcif","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
