A majorized accelerated block coordinate descent (mABCD) method in Hilbert space is analyzed to solve a sparse PDE-constrained optimization problem via its dual. The finite element approximation method is investigated. The attractive…
Block-coordinate descent (BCD) is a popular framework for large-scale regularized optimization problems with block-separable structure. Existing methods have several limitations. They often assume that subproblems can be solved exactly at…
We consider least squares semidefinite programming (LSSDP) where the primal matrix variable must satisfy given linear equality and inequality constraints, and must also lie in the intersection of the cone of symmetric positive semidefinite…
In this paper, elliptic control problems with integral constraint on the gradient of the state and box constraints on the control are considered. The optimal conditions of the problem are proved. To numerically solve the problem, we use the…
The cyclic block coordinate descent-type (CBCD-type) methods, which performs iterative updates for a few coordinates (a block) simultaneously throughout the procedure, have shown remarkable computational performance for solving strongly…
Block coordinate descent (BCD) methods are prevalent in large scale optimization problems due to the low memory and computational costs per iteration, the predisposition to parallelization, and the ability to exploit the structure of the…

The block coordinate descent (BCD) method is widely used for minimizing a continuous function f of several block variables. At each iteration of this method, a single block of variables is optimized, while the remaining variables are held…

We consider the minimum-energy control of a car, which is modelled as a point mass sliding on the ground in a fixed direction, and so it can be mathematically described as the double integrator. The control variable, representing the…
In this paper, elliptic optimal control problems involving the $L^1$-control cost ($L^1$-EOCP) is considered. To numerically discretize $L^1$-EOCP, the standard piecewise linear finite element is employed. However, different from the finite…
Block coordinate descent (BCD) methods approach optimization problems by performing gradient steps along alternating subgroups of coordinates. This is in contrast to full gradient descent, where a gradient step updates all coordinates…
Block coordinate descent (BCD) methods are widely used for large-scale numerical optimization because of their cheap iteration costs, low memory requirements, amenability to parallelization, and ability to exploit problem structure. Three…

We study and develop (stochastic) primal--dual block-coordinate descent methods for convex problems based on the method due to Chambolle and Pock. Our methods have known convergence rates for the iterates and the ergodic gap: $O(1/N^2)$ if…
Multi-block separable convex problems recently received considerable attention. This class of optimization problems minimizes a separable convex objective function with linear constraints. The algorithmic challenges come from the fact that…
We develop a novel randomised block coordinate primal-dual algorithm for a class of non-smooth ill-posed convex programs. Lying in the midway between the celebrated Chambolle-Pock primal-dual algorithm and Tseng's accelerated proximal…
