This paper provides a block coordinate descent algorithm to solve unconstrained optimization problems. In our algorithm, computation of function values or gradients is not required. Instead, pairwise comparison of function values is used.…

Many real-world problems are categorized as large-scale problems, and metaheuristic algorithms as an alternative method to solve large-scale problem; they need the evaluation of many candidate solutions to tackle them prior to their…

This paper presents a novel coordinate descent algorithm leveraging a combination of one-directional line search and gradient information for parameter updates for a squared error loss function. Each parameter undergoes updates determined…

Coordinate descent algorithms are widely used in machine learning and large-scale data analysis due to their strong optimality guarantees and impressive empirical performance in solving non-convex problems. In this work, we introduce Block…

The state-of-the-art methods for solving optimization problems in big dimensions are variants of randomized coordinate descent (RCD). In this paper we introduce a fundamentally new type of acceleration strategy for RCD based on the…

This monograph presents a class of algorithms called coordinate descent algorithms for mathematicians, statisticians, and engineers outside the field of optimization. This particular class of algorithms has recently gained popularity due to…

Low-bit width neural networks have been extensively explored for deployment on edge devices to reduce computational resources. Existing approaches have focused on gradient-based optimization in a two-stage train-and-compress setting or as a…

Coordinate descent methods have considerable impact in global optimization because global (or, at least, almost global) minimization is affordable for low-dimensional problems. Coordinate descent methods with high-order regularized models…

In this paper, a sequential search method for finding the global minimum of an objective function is presented, The descent gradient search is repeated until the global minimum is obtained. The global minimum is located by a process of…

Multi-objective combinatorial optimization seeks Pareto-optimal solutions over exponentially large discrete spaces, yet existing methods sacrifice generality, scalability, or theoretical guarantees. We reformulate it as an online learning…

Optimization algorithms are pivotal in advancing various scientific and industrial fields but often encounter obstacles such as trapping in local minima, saddle points, and plateaus (flat regions), which makes the convergence to reasonable…

In this paper we analyze several new methods for solving nonconvex optimization problems with the objective function formed as a sum of two terms: one is nonconvex and smooth, and another is convex but simple and its structure is known.…

Distributed optimization is the standard way of speeding up machine learning training, and most of the research in the area focuses on distributed first-order, gradient-based methods. Yet, there are settings where some…

Recently several methods were proposed for sparse optimization which make careful use of second-order information [10, 28, 16, 3] to improve local convergence rates. These methods construct a composite quadratic approximation using Hessian…

This paper considers the problem of online optimization where the objective function is time-varying. In particular, we extend coordinate descent type algorithms to the online case, where the objective function varies after a finite number…
