Distributed Algorithm Over Time-Varying Unbalanced Topologies for Optimization Problem Subject to Multiple Local Constraints
Abstract
This paper studies the distributed optimization problem with possibly nonidentical local constraints, where its global objective function is composed of convex functions. The aim is to solve the considered optimization problem in a distributed manner over time-varying unbalanced directed topologies by using only local information and performing only local computations. Towards this end, a new distributed discrete-time algorithm is developed by synthesizing the row stochastic matrices sequence and column stochastic matrices sequence analysis technique. Furthermore, for the developed distributed discrete-time algorithm, its convergence property to the optimal solution as well as its convergence rate are established under some mild assumptions. Numerical simulations are finally presented to verify the theoretical results.
