With the recent emergence of mixed precision hardware, there has been a renewed interest in its use for solving numerical linear algebra problems fast and accurately. The solution of least squares (LS) problems $\min_x\|b-Ax\|_2$, where $A…

We develop a new least squares method for solving the second-order elliptic equations in non-divergence form. Two least-squares-type functionals are proposed for solving the equations in two steps. We first obtain a numerical approximation…

Partial least squares (PLS) is a dimensionality reduction technique introduced in the field of chemometrics and successfully employed in many other areas. The PLS components are obtained by maximizing the covariance between linear…

Many large-scale optimization problems arising in science and engineering are naturally defined at multiple levels of discretization or model fidelity. Multilevel methods exploit this hierarchy to accelerate convergence by combining coarse-…

We develop a novel primal-dual algorithm to solve a class of nonsmooth and nonlinear compositional convex minimization problems, which covers many existing and brand-new models as special cases. Our approach relies on a combination of a new…

In this paper, we introduce a proximal-proximal majorization-minimization (PPMM) algorithm for nonconvex tuning-free robust regression problems. The basic idea is to apply the proximal majorization-minimization algorithm to solve the…

In this paper, we consider a broad class of nonsmooth and nonconvex fractional programs, where the numerator can be written as the sum of a continuously differentiable convex function whose gradient is Lipschitz continuous and a proper…

We propose a weighted least-square (WLS) method to design autoregressive moving average (ARMA) graph filters. We first express the WLS design problem as a numerically-stable optimization problem using Chebyshev polynomial bases. We then…

Sparse learning is a very important tool for mining useful information and patterns from high dimensional data. Non-convex non-smooth regularized learning problems play essential roles in sparse learning, and have drawn extensive attentions…

This work develops new algorithms with rigorous efficiency guarantees for infinite horizon imitation learning (IL) with linear function approximation without restrictive coherence assumptions. We begin with the minimax formulation of the…

We propose iterative projection methods for solving square or rectangular consistent linear systems Ax = b. Existing projection methods use sketching matrices (possibly randomized) to generate a sequence of small projected subproblems, but…

In this paper we study an algorithm for solving a minimization problem composed of a differentiable (possibly non-convex) and a convex (possibly non-differentiable) function. The algorithm iPiano combines forward-backward splitting with an…

We consider solving the $\ell_1$-regularized least-squares ($\ell_1$-LS) problem in the context of sparse recovery, for applications such as compressed sensing. The standard proximal gradient method, also known as iterative…

The least trimmed squares (LTS) is a reasonable formulation of robust regression whereas it suffers from high computational cost due to the nonconvexity and nonsmoothness of its objective function. The most frequently used FAST-LTS…

Stochastic gradient methods are dominant in nonconvex optimization especially for deep models but have low asymptotical convergence due to the fixed smoothness. To address this problem, we propose a simple yet effective method for improving…

This work proposes an implementable proximal-type method for a broad class of optimization problems involving nonsmooth and nonconvex objective and constraint functions. In contrast to existing methods that rely on an ad hoc model…

In this paper we propose a linear scalarization proximal point algorithm for solving arbitrary lower semicontinuous quasiconvex multiobjective minimization problems. Under some natural assumptions and using the condition that the proximal…

In this paper, a multi-parameterized proximal point algorithm combining with a relaxation step is developed for solving convex minimization problem subject to linear constraints. We show its global convergence and sublinear convergence rate…
