In this paper, we study the generalized Douglas-Rachford algorithm and its cyclic variants which include many projection-type methods such as the classical Douglas-Rachford algorithm and the alternating projection algorithm. Specifically,…
Motivated by nonconvex, inconsistent feasibility problems in imaging, the relaxed alternating averaged reflections algorithm, or relaxed Douglas-Rachford algorithm (DR$\lambda$), was first proposed over a decade ago. Convergence results for…
We study the cyclic relaxed Douglas-Rachford algorithm for possibly nonconvex, and inconsistent feasibility problems. This algorithm can be viewed as a convex relaxation between the cyclic Douglas-Rachford algorithm first introduced by…
The Douglas-Rachford projection algorithm is an iterative method used to find a point in the intersection of closed constraint sets. The algorithm has been experimentally observed to solve various nonconvex feasibility problems which…
The Douglas-Rachford algorithm is a simple yet effective method for solving convex feasibility problems. However, if the underlying constraints are inconsistent, then the convergence theory is incomplete. We provide convergence results when…
The Douglas-Rachford algorithm is a classical and very successful method for solving optimization and feasibility problems. In this paper, we provide novel conditions sufficient for finite convergence in the context of convex feasibility…
Solving feasibility problems is a central task in mathematics and the applied sciences. One particularly successful method is the Douglas-Rachford algorithm. In this paper, we provide many new conditions sufficient for finite convergence.…
Feasibility problem aims to find a common point of two or more closed (convex) sets whose intersection is nonempty. In the literature, projection based algorithms are widely adopted to solve the problem, such as the method of alternating…
In this paper we study new algorithmic structures with Douglas- Rachford (DR) operators to solve convex feasibility problems. We propose to embed the basic two-set-DR algorithmic operator into the String-Averaging Projections (SAP) and into…
Many iterative methods for solving optimization or feasibility problems have been invented, and often convergence of the iterates to some solution is proven. Under favourable conditions, one might have additional bounds on the distance of…
We discuss the Douglas-Rachford algorithm to solve the feasibility problem for two closed sets $A,B$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We prove its local convergence to a fixed point when $A,B$ are finite unions of convex sets. We also show that for more…
The Douglas-Rachford method, a projection algorithm designed to solve continuous optimization problems, forms the basis of a useful heuristic for solving combinatorial optimization problems. In order to successfully use the method, it is…
The Douglas-Rachford (DR) method is a widely used method for finding a point in the intersection of two closed convex sets (feasibility problem). However, the method converges weakly and the associated rate of convergence is hard to analyze…
In recent times the Douglas-Rachford algorithm has been observed empirically to solve a variety of nonconvex feasibility problems including those of a combinatorial nature. For many of these problems current theory is not sufficient to…
We adapt the Douglas-Rachford (DR) splitting method to solve nonconvex feasibility problems by studying this method for a class of nonconvex optimization problem. While the convergence properties of the method for convex problems have been…
The main challenge of nonconvex optimization is to find a global optimum, or at least to avoid ``bad'' local minima and meaningless stationary points. We study here the extent to which algorithms, as opposed to optimization models and…
The Douglas--Rachford algorithm is a popular algorithm for solving both convex and nonconvex feasibility problems. While its behaviour is settled in the convex inconsistent case, the general nonconvex inconsistent case is far from being…
We discuss recent positive experiences applying convex feasibility algorithms of Douglas--Rachford type to highly combinatorial and far from convex problems.
The problem of finding a vector with the fewest nonzero elements that satisfies an underdetermined system of linear equations is an NP-complete problem that is typically solved numerically via convex heuristics or nicely-behaved nonconvex…
The Douglas-Rachford algorithm (DRA) is a powerful optimization method for minimizing the sum of two convex (not necessarily smooth) functions. The vast majority of previous research dealt with the case when the sum has at least one…
