In this paper we introduce new methods for convex optimization problems with inexact stochastic oracle. First method is an extension of the intermediate gradient method proposed by Devolder, Glineur and Nesterov for problems with inexact…

In the paper we generalize universal gradient method (Yu. Nesterov) to strongly convex case and to Intermediate gradient method (Devolder-Glineur-Nesterov). We also consider possible generalizations to stochastic and online context. We show…

In practice, optimization tasks have some structure that allows developing new algorithms for every problem with faster convergence rates. Using the structure of optimization tasks, we can propose algorithms with more optimistic convergence…

We show that the primal-dual gradient method, also known as the gradient descent ascent method, for solving convex-concave minimax problems can be viewed as an inexact gradient method applied to the primal problem. The gradient, whose exact…

Several recent works address the impact of inexact oracles in the convergence analysis of modern first-order optimization techniques, e.g. Bregman Proximal Gradient and Prox-Linear methods as well as their accelerated variants, extending…

We introduce the concept of inexact first-order oracle of degree q for a possibly nonconvex and nonsmooth function, which naturally appears in the context of approximate gradient, weak level of smoothness and other situations. Our…

In this paper, we propose a new way to obtain optimal convergence rates for smooth stochastic (strong) convex optimization tasks. Our approach is based on results for optimization tasks where gradients have nonrandom noise. In contrast to…

In this paper, we develop new first-order method for composite non-convex minimization problems with simple constraints and inexact oracle. The objective function is given as a sum of "`hard"', possibly non-convex part, and "`simple"'…

We propose several adaptive algorithmic methods for problems of non-smooth convex optimization. The first of them is based on a special artificial inexactness. Namely, the concept of inexact ($ \delta, \Delta, L$)-model of objective…

In this book we collect many different and useful facts around gradient descent method. First of all we consider gradient descent with inexact oracle. We build a general model of optimized function that include composite optimization…

We consider optimization methods for convex minimization problems under inexact information on the objective function. We introduce inexact model of the objective, which as a particular cases includes $(\delta,L)$ inexact oracle and…

In this paper, we present a novel derivative-free optimization framework for solving unconstrained stochastic optimization problems. Many problems in fields ranging from simulation optimization to reinforcement learning involve settings…

In the paper, we generalize the approach Gasnikov et. al, 2017, which allows to solve (stochastic) convex optimization problems with an inexact gradient-free oracle, to the convex-concave saddle-point problem. The proposed approach works,…

Motivated by emerging applications in machine learning, we consider an optimization problem in a general form where the gradient of the objective function is available through a biased stochastic oracle. We assume a bias-control parameter…

We propose general non-accelerated and accelerated tensor methods under inexact information on the derivatives of the objective, analyze their convergence rate. Further, we provide conditions for the inexactness in each derivative that is…

It is well-known that accelerated gradient first order methods possess optimal complexity estimates for the class of convex smooth minimization problems. In many practical situations, it makes sense to work with inexact gradients. However,…

In the paper we show that euclidian randomization in some situations (i.e. for gradient-free method on a simplex) can be as good as the randomization on the unit sphere in 1-norm. That is on the simplex example we show that for…

This review presents modern gradient-free methods to solve convex optimization problems. By gradient-free methods, we mean those that use only (noisy) realizations of the objective value. We are motivated by various applications where…

With the success that the field of bilevel optimization has seen in recent years, similar methodologies have started being applied to solving more difficult applications that arise in trilevel optimization. At the helm of these applications…

We present a new accelerated stochastic second-order method that is robust to both gradient and Hessian inexactness, which occurs typically in machine learning. We establish theoretical lower bounds and prove that our algorithm achieves…
