As biotechnology has made remarkable progress nowadays, there has also been a great improvement on data collection with lower cost and higher quality outcomes. More often than not investigators can obtain the measurements of many disease-related features simultaneously. When multiple potential...

The paper considers nonconvex quadratic semidefinite problems. This class arises, for instance, as subproblems in the sequential semidefinite programming algorithm for solving general smooth nonlinear semidefinite problems. We extend locally the concept of self-concordance to problems that...
