We propose an optimization method for minimizing the finite sums of smooth convex functions. Our method incorporates an accelerated gradient descent (AGD) and a stochastic variance reduction gradient (SVRG) in a mini-batch setting. Unlike…

Gradient sampling (GS) has proved to be an effective methodology for the minimization of objective functions that may be nonconvex and/or nonsmooth. The most computationally expensive component of a contemporary GS method is the need to…

We introduce and investigate a new generalized convexity notion for functions called prox-convexity. The proximity operator of such a function is single-valued and firmly nonexpansive. We provide examples of (strongly) quasiconvex, weakly…

In this paper, we introduce a stochastic projected subgradient method for weakly convex (i.e., uniformly prox-regular) nonsmooth, nonconvex functions---a wide class of functions which includes the additive and convex composite classes. At a…

The higher-order generalized singular value decomposition (HO-GSVD) is a matrix factorization technique that extends the GSVD to $N \ge 2$ data matrices, and can be used to identify shared subspaces in multiple large-scale datasets with…

In this work, we propose and study a framework of generalized proximal point algorithms associated with a maximally monotone operator. We indicate sufficient conditions on the regularization and relaxation parameters of generalized proximal…

In the paper, we develop a composite version of Mirror Prox algorithm for solving convex-concave saddle point problems and monotone variational inequalities of special structure, allowing to cover saddle point/variational analogies of what…

Composite function minimization captures a wide spectrum of applications in both computer vision and machine learning. It includes bound constrained optimization, $\ell_1$ norm regularized optimization, and $\ell_0$ norm regularized…

As a significant subspace clustering method, low rank representation (LRR) has attracted great attention in recent years. To further improve the performance of LRR and extend its applications, there are several issues to be resolved. The…

Tensor completion and robust principal component analysis have been widely used in machine learning while the key problem relies on the minimization of a tensor rank that is very challenging. A common way to tackle this difficulty is to…

For the computation of the generalized singular value decomposition (GSVD) of a large matrix pair $(A,B)$ of full column rank, the GSVD is commonly formulated as two mathematically equivalent generalized eigenvalue problems, so that a…

As surrogate functions of $L_0$-norm, many nonconvex penalty functions have been proposed to enhance the sparse vector recovery. It is easy to extend these nonconvex penalty functions on singular values of a matrix to enhance low-rank…

Support Vector Machine (SVM) is an effective model for many classification problems. However, SVM needs the solution of a quadratic program which require specialized code. In addition, SVM has many parameters, which affects the performance…

Variable selection has become a pivotal choice in data analyses that impacts subsequent inference and prediction. In linear models, variable selection using Second-Generation P-Values (SGPV) has been shown to be as good as any other…

We show that the global minimum solution of $\lVert A - BXC \rVert$ can be found in closed-form with singular value decompositions and generalized singular value decompositions for a variety of constraints on $X$ involving rank, norm,…

We consider the class of convex minimization problems, composed of a self-concordant function, such as the $\log\det$ metric, a convex data fidelity term $h(\cdot)$ and, a regularizing -- possibly non-smooth -- function $g(\cdot)$. This…

The standard algorithms for solving large-scale convex-concave saddle point problems, or, more generally, variational inequalities with monotone operators, are proximal type algorithms which at every iteration need to compute a…

In this paper, we investigate the generalized low rank approximation to the symmetric positive semidefinite matrix in the Frobenius norm: $$\underset{ rank(X)\leq k}{\min} \sum^m_{i=1}\left \Vert A_i - B_i XB_i^T \right \Vert^2_F,$$ where…

In this paper we present GSSN, a globalized SCD semismooth* Newton method for solving nonsmooth nonconvex optimization problems. The global convergence properties of the method are ensured by the proximal gradient method, whereas locally…

In this paper, we propose new randomization based algorithms for large scale linear discrete ill-posed problems with general-form regularization: ${\min} \|Lx\|$ subject to ${\min} \|Ax - b\|$, where $L$ is a regularization matrix. Our…
