This paper is devoted to the design of efficient primal-dual algorithm (PDA) for solving convex optimization problems with known saddle-point structure. We present a new PDA with larger acceptable range of parameters and correction, which…

This work studies multi-agent sharing optimization problems with the objective function being the sum of smooth local functions plus a convex (possibly non-smooth) function coupling all agents. This scenario arises in many machine learning…

This paper proposes two proximal Newton-CG methods for convex nonsmooth optimization problems in composite form. The algorithms are based on a a reformulation of the original nonsmooth problem as the unconstrained minimization of a…

This work presents a universal accelerated first-order primal-dual method for affinely constrained convex optimization problems. It can handle both Lipschitz and H\"{o}lder gradients but does not need to know the smoothness level of the…

By time discretization of a second-order primal-dual dynamical system with damping $\alpha/t$ where an inertial construction in the sense of Nesterov is needed only for the primal variable, we propose a fast primal-dual algorithm for a…

In this paper, we propose a new decomposition approach named the proximal primal dual algorithm (Prox-PDA) for smooth nonconvex linearly constrained optimization problems. The proposed approach is primal-dual based, where the primal step…

In this paper we consider a class of optimization problems with a strongly convex objective function and the feasible set given by an intersection of a simple convex set with a set given by a number of linear equality and inequality…

This paper studies the primal-dual convergence and iteration-complexity of proximal bundle methods for solving nonsmooth problems with convex structures. More specifically, we develop a family of primal-dual proximal bundle methods for…

In this paper, we propose two algorithms for solving linear inverse problems when the observations are corrupted by Poisson noise. A proper data fidelity term (log-likelihood) is introduced to reflect the Poisson statistics of the noise. On…

We propose a primal-dual backward reflected forward splitting method for solving structured primal-dual monotone inclusion in real Hilbert space. The algorithm allows to use the inexact computations of the Lipschitzian and cocoercive…

This paper presents a multilevel FISTA algorithm, based on the use of the Moreau envelope to build the correction brought by the coarse models, which is easy to compute when the explicit form of the proximal operator of the considered…

Models including two $L^1$ -norm terms have been widely used in image restoration. In this paper we first propose the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) to solve this class of models. Based on ADMM, we then propose the…

In this paper we propose a global convex approach for image hallucination. Altering the idea of classical multi image super resolution (SU) systems to single image SU, we incorporate aligned images to hallucinate the output. Our work is…

Bayesian image restoration has had a long history of successful application but one of the limitations that has prevented more widespread use is that the methods are generally computationally intensive. The authors recently addressed this…

First-order methods for solving convex optimization problems have been at the forefront of mathematical optimization in the last 20 years. The rapid development of this important class of algorithms is motivated by the success stories…

We propose a modified primal-dual method for general convex optimization problems with changing constraints. We obtain properties of Lagrangian saddle points for these problems which enable us to establish convergence of the proposed…

Topology optimization problems often support multiple local minima due to a lack of convexity. Typically, gradient-based techniques combined with continuation in model parameters are used to promote convergence to more optimal solutions;…

In this paper, we propose two novel non-stationary first-order primal-dual algorithms to solve nonsmooth composite convex optimization problems. Unlike existing primal-dual schemes where the parameters are often fixed, our methods use…

We consider minimization of functions that are compositions of convex or prox-regular functions (possibly extended-valued) with smooth vector functions. A wide variety of important optimization problems fall into this framework. We describe…

Existing results on decomposition methods and algorithms for nonconvex problems are minimal. Parallel decomposition algorithms do not exist for nonconvex problems with coupling nonlinear equality constraints. Besides, decomposition…
