We prove the convergence of the proximal point algorithm for finding the unique minimizer of a strongly quasiconvex function in general nonlinear Hadamard spaces, generalizing a recent result due to F. Lara. Our argument is rather…

Many applications require recovering a matrix of minimal rank within an affine constraint set, with matrix completion a notable special case. Because the problem is NP-hard in general, it is common to replace the matrix rank with the…

The generalized alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) of Xiao et al. [{\tt Math. Prog. Comput., 2018}] aims at the two-block linearly constrained composite convex programming problem, in which each block is in the form of…

In two earlier papers, we designed a distributed deterministic asynchronous algorithm for minimizing the sum of subdifferentiable and proximable functions and a regularizing quadratic on time-varying graphs based on Dykstra's algorithm, or…

Many classical and modern machine learning algorithms require solving optimization tasks under orthogonality constraints. Solving these tasks with feasible methods requires a gradient descent update followed by a retraction operation on the…

Stochastic algorithms, especially stochastic gradient descent (SGD), have proven to be the go-to methods in data science and machine learning. In recent years, the stochastic proximal point algorithm (SPPA) emerged, and it was shown to be…

The proximal point method (PPM) is a fundamental method in optimization that is often used as a building block for designing optimization algorithms. In this work, we use the PPM method to provide conceptually simple derivations along with…

We study inexact fixed-point proximity algorithms for solving a class of sparse regularization problems involving the $\ell_0$ norm. Specifically, the $\ell_0$ model has an objective function that is the sum of a convex fidelity term and a…

Finding multiple solutions of non-convex optimization problems is a ubiquitous yet challenging task. Most past algorithms either apply single-solution optimization methods from multiple random initial guesses or search in the vicinity of…

The problem of minimizing the sum of nonsmooth, convex objective functions defined on a real Hilbert space over the intersection of fixed point sets of nonexpansive mappings, onto which the projections cannot be efficiently computed, is…

A standard model for image reconstruction involves the minimization of a data-fidelity term along with a regularizer, where the optimization is performed using proximal algorithms such as ISTA and ADMM. In plug-and-play (PnP)…
