This article focuses on the problem of reconstructing low-rank matrices from underdetermined measurements using alternating optimization strategies. We endeavour to combine an alternating least-squares based estimation strategy with ideas…

This paper proposes a nonmonotone proximal quasi-Newton algorithm for unconstrained convex multiobjective composite optimization problems. To design the search direction, we minimize the max-scalarization of the variations of the Hessian…

We address the problem of solving convex optimization problems with many convex constraints in a distributed setting. Our approach is based on an extension of the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) that recently gained a lot…

In this paper, we propose a new unified optimization algorithm for general tensor decomposition which is formulated as an inverse problem for low-rank tensors in the general linear observation models. The proposed algorithm supports three…

Identifying the discontinuous diffusion coefficient in an elliptic equation with observation data of the gradient of the solution is an important nonlinear and ill-posed inverse problem. Models with total variational (TV) regularization…

The Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) is widely used for linearly constrained convex problems. It is proven to have an $o(1/\sqrt{K})$ nonergodic convergence rate and a faster $O(1/K)$ ergodic rate after ergodic averaging,…

In this paper we propose an efficient distributed algorithm for solving loosely coupled convex optimization problems. The algorithm is based on a primal-dual interior-point method in which we use the alternating direction method of…

In this work, we study two first-order primal-dual based algorithms, the Gradient Primal-Dual Algorithm (GPDA) and the Gradient Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (GADMM), for solving a class of linearly constrained non-convex…

Adaptive regularization methods pre-multiply a descent direction by a preconditioning matrix. Due to the large number of parameters of machine learning problems, full-matrix preconditioning methods are prohibitively expensive. We show how…

This paper studies first order methods for solving smooth minimax optimization problems $\min_x \max_y g(x,y)$ where $g(\cdot,\cdot)$ is smooth and $g(x,\cdot)$ is concave for each $x$. In terms of $g(\cdot,y)$, we consider two settings --…

Alternating gradient-descent-ascent (AltGDA) is an optimization algorithm that has been widely used for model training in various machine learning applications, which aims to solve a nonconvex minimax optimization problem. However, the…

In this paper we propose an extension of the iteratively regularized Gauss--Newton method to the Banach space setting by defining the iterates via convex optimization problems. We consider some a posteriori stopping rules to terminate the…

We propose a first-order method for solving inequality constrained optimization problems. The method is derived from our previous work [12], a modified search direction method (MSDM) that applies the singular-value decomposition of…

Alternating minimization (AM) procedures are practically efficient in many applications for solving convex and non-convex optimization problems. On the other hand, Nesterov's accelerated gradient is theoretically optimal first-order method…

With the large rising of complex data, the nonconvex models such as nonconvex loss function and nonconvex regularizer are widely used in machine learning and pattern recognition. In this paper, we propose a class of mini-batch stochastic…

This paper addresses the problem of efficiently classifying high-dimensional data over decentralized networks. Penalized support vector machines (SVMs) are widely used for high-dimensional classification tasks. However, the double…

Inspired by the decomposition in the hybrid quantum-classical optimization algorithm we introduced in arXiv:1902.04215, we propose here a new (fully classical) approach to solving certain non-convex integer programs using Graver bases. This…

The alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) has been applied successfully in a broad spectrum of areas. Moreover, it was shown in the literature that ADMM is closely related to the Douglas-Rachford operator-splitting method, and…

In this paper, we study Newton-conjugate gradient (Newton-CG) methods for minimizing a nonconvex function $f$ whose Hessian is $(H_f,\nu)$-H\"older continuous with modulus $H_f>0$ and exponent $\nu\in(0,1]$. Recently proposed Newton-CG…
