L1-minimization refers to finding the minimum L1-norm solution to an underdetermined linear system b=Ax. Under certain conditions as described in compressive sensing theory, the minimum L1-norm solution is also the sparsest solution. In…

The augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) is one of the most useful methods for constrained optimization. Its convergence has been well established under convexity assumptions or smoothness assumptions, or under both assumptions. ALM may…

The inversion of linear systems is a fundamental step in many inverse problems. Computational challenges exist when trying to invert large linear systems, where limited computing resources mean that only part of the system can be kept in…

We focus on solving the clustered lasso problem, which is a least squares problem with the $\ell_1$-type penalties imposed on both the coefficients and their pairwise differences to learn the group structure of the regression parameters.…

Optimization problems with convex quadratic cost and polyhedral constraints are ubiquitous in signal processing, automatic control and decision-making. We consider here an enlarged problem class that allows to encode logical conditions and…

We propose a practical inexact augmented Lagrangian method (iALM) for nonconvex problems with nonlinear constraints. We characterize the total computational complexity of our method subject to a verifiable geometric condition, which is…

Symmetric cone programming covers a broad class of convex optimization problems, including linear programming, second-order cone programming, and semidefinite programming. Although the augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) is well-suited for…

This paper presents two new techniques relating to inexact solution of subproblems in augmented Lagrangian methods for convex programming. The first involves combining a relative error criterion for solution of the subproblems with over- or…

The auxiliary problem principle of augmented Lagrangian (APP-AL), proposed by Cohen and Zhu (1984), aims to find the solution of a constrained optimization problem through a sequence of auxiliary problems involving augmented Lagrangian. The…

Factor graphs are a very powerful graphical representation, used to model many problems in robotics. They are widely spread in the areas of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), computer vision, and localization. In this paper we…

We propose a new bundle-based augmented Lagrangian framework for solving constrained convex problems. Unlike the classical (inexact) augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) that has a nested double-loop structure, our framework features a…

While Computerized Tomography (CT) images can help detect disease such as Covid-19, regular CT machines are large and expensive. Cheaper and more portable machines suffer from errors in geometry acquisition that downgrades CT image quality.…

The augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) is classic for canonical convex programming problems with linear constraints, and it finds many applications in various scientific computing areas. A major advantage of the ALM is that the step for…

Zero-One Composite Optimization (0/1-COP) is a prototype of nonsmooth, nonconvex optimization problems and it has attracted much attention recently. The augmented Lagrangian Method (ALM) has stood out as a leading methodology for such…
