Stochastic compositional optimization (SCO) has attracted considerable attention because of its broad applicability to important real-world problems. However, existing works on SCO assume that the projection within a solution update is…

We provide the first study of the problem of finding differentially private (DP) second-order stationary points (SOSP) in stochastic (non-convex) minimax optimization. Existing literature either focuses only on first-order stationary points…

Stochastic Primal-Dual Hybrid Gradient (SPDHG) is an algorithm proposed by Chambolle et al. (2018) to efficiently solve a wide class of nonsmooth large-scale optimization problems. In this paper we contribute to its theoretical foundations…

A very popular approach for solving stochastic optimization problems is the stochastic gradient descent method (SGD). Although the SGD iteration is computationally cheap and the practical performance of this method may be satisfactory under…

We study a stochastic primal-dual method for constrained optimization over Riemannian manifolds with bounded sectional curvature. We prove non-asymptotic convergence to the optimal objective value. More precisely, for the class of…

Sampling-based model predictive control methods like MPPI and CEM are essential for real-time control of nonlinear robotic systems, particularly where discontinuous dynamics preclude gradient-based optimization. However, these methods…
