Large-scale nonsmooth optimization problems arise in many real-world applications, but obtaining exact function and subgradient values for these problems may be computationally expensive or even infeasible. In many practical settings, only…

In the second part of our study we introduce the concept of global extended exactness of penalty and augmented Lagrangian functions, and derive the localization principle in the extended form. The main idea behind the extended exactness…

We are concerned with structured $\ell_0$-norms regularization problems, with a twice continuously differentiable loss function and a box constraint. This class of problems have a wide range of applications in statistics, machine learning…

This paper proposes a distributed algorithm for a network of agents to solve an optimization problem with separable objective function and locally coupled constraints. Our strategy is based on reformulating the original constrained problem…

The Minimum Dominating Set (MDS) problem is a well-established combinatorial optimization problem with numerous real-world applications. Its NP-hard nature makes it increasingly difficult to obtain exact solutions as the graph size grows.…

Study about theory and algorithms for constrained optimization usually assumes that the feasible region of the optimization problem is nonempty. However, there are many important practical optimization problems whose feasible regions are…

We consider the problem of minimizing a convex function over the intersection of finitely many simple sets which are easy to project onto. This is an important problem arising in various domains such as machine learning. The main difficulty…

Given a dissimilarity matrix, the metric nearness problem is to find the nearest matrix of distances that satisfy the triangle inequalities. This problem has wide applications, such as sensor networks, image processing, and so on. But it is…

We deal with monotone inclusion problems of the form $0\in Ax+Dx+N_C(x)$ in real Hilbert spaces, where $A$ is a maximally monotone operator, $D$ a cocoercive operator and $C$ the nonempty set of zeros of another cocoercive operator. We…

We develop numerical methods for elliptic systems governed by partial segregation constraints, in which three nonnegative components are required to have a vanishing pointwise product throughout the domain. This constraint enforces that at…

We propose a new class of exact continuous relaxations of l0-regularized criteria involving non-quadratic data terms such as the Kullback-Leibler divergence and the logistic regression, possibly combined with an l2 regularization. We first…

Set partitioning is a key component of many algorithms in machine learning, signal processing, and communications. In general, the problem of finding a partition that minimizes a given impurity (loss function) is NP-hard. As such, there…

The ultimate goal of any numerical scheme for partial differential equations (PDEs) is to compute an approximation of user-prescribed accuracy at quasi-minimal computational time. To this end, algorithmically, the standard adaptive finite…

Quadratic assignment problems are a fundamental class of combinatorial optimization problems which are ubiquitous in applications, yet their exact resolution is NP-hard. To circumvent this impasse, it was proposed to regularize such…
