Computing the conditional mode of a distribution, better known as the $\mathit{maximum\ a\ posteriori}$ (MAP) assignment, is a fundamental task in probabilistic inference. However, MAP estimation is generally intractable, and remains hard…

We study the worst-case behavior of Block Coordinate Descent (BCD) type algorithms for unconstrained minimization of coordinate-wise smooth convex functions. This behavior is indeed not completely understood, and the practical success of…

In this paper we derive higher order convergence rates in terms of the Bregman distance for Tikhonov like convex regularisation for linear operator equations on Banach spaces. The approach is based on the idea of variational inequalities,…

According to a result due to B.T. Polyak, a mapping between Hilbert spaces, which is $C^{1,1}$ around a regular point, carries a ball centered at that point to a convex set, provided that the radius of the ball is small enough. The present…
