We consider the best approximation problem (BAP) of projecting a point onto the intersection of a number of convex sets. It is known that Dykstra's algorithm is alternating minimization on the dual problem. We extend Dykstra's algorithm so…

This paper extends the algorithm schemes proposed in \cite{Nesterov2007a} and \cite{Nesterov2007b} to the minimization of the sum of a composite objective function and a convex function. Two proximal point-type schemes are provided and…

This paper addresses the minimization of a finite sum of prox-convex functions under Lipschitz continuity of each component. We propose two variants of the splitting proximal point algorithms proposed in \cite{Bacak,Bertsekas}: one…

Consider the setting where each vertex of a graph has a function, and communications can only occur between vertices connected by an edge. We wish to minimize the sum of these functions. For the case when each function is the sum of a…

Parallel and cyclic projection algorithms are proposed for minimizing the sum of a finite family of convex functions over the intersection of a finite family of closed convex subsets of a Hilbert space. These algorithms are of…

We consider the problem of minimizing the sum of three convex functions: i) a smooth function $f$ in the form of an expectation or a finite average, ii) a non-smooth function $g$ in the form of a finite average of proximable functions…

In this paper we present a variant of the proximal forward-backward splitting iteration for solving nonsmooth optimization problems in Hilbert spaces, when the objective function is the sum of two nondifferentiable convex functions. The…

Many applications using large datasets require efficient methods for minimizing a proximable convex function subject to satisfying a set of linear constraints within a specified tolerance. For this task, we present a proximal projection…

Convex nonsmooth optimization problems, whose solutions live in very high dimensional spaces, have become ubiquitous. To solve them, the class of first-order algorithms known as proximal splitting algorithms is particularly adequate: they…

A popular method for finding the projection onto the intersection of two closed convex subsets in Hilbert space is Dykstra's algorithm. In this paper, we provide sufficient conditions for Dykstra's algorithm to converge rapidly, in finitely…

We propose a novel study of the stochastic proximal gradient method for minimizing the sum of two convex functions, one of which is smooth. Under suitable assumptions and without requiring any boundedness or control of the variance of the…

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…

We propose a stochastic optimization method for the minimization of the sum of three convex functions, one of which has Lipschitz continuous gradient as well as restricted strong convexity. Our approach is most suitable in the setting where…

Constrained quadratic programs and Euclidean projections are ubiquitous in engineering, arising in machine learning, estimation, control, and signal processing. Dykstra's algorithm is an iterative scheme for computing the Euclidean…

We consider the problem of minimizing a finite sum of convex functions subject to the set of minimizers of a convex differentiable function. In order to solve the problem, an algorithm combining the incremental proximal gradient method with…

We provide sufficient conditions for quantitative convergence of the iterates of proximal splitting algorithms for minimizing a sum of functions on a metric space. The theory does not assume that the functions have common minima, nor does…

Several optimization schemes have been known for convex optimization problems. However, numerical algorithms for solving nonconvex optimization problems are still underdeveloped. A progress to go beyond convexity was made by considering the…

Many problems arising in image processing and signal recovery with multi-regularization can be formulated as minimization of a sum of three convex separable functions. Typically, the objective function involves a smooth function with…

We consider the problem of minimizing a sum of clipped convex functions; applications include clipped empirical risk minimization and clipped control. While the problem of minimizing the sum of clipped convex functions is NP-hard, we…

We study the convergence rate of the proximal-gradient homotopy algorithm applied to norm-regularized linear least squares problems, for a general class of norms. The homotopy algorithm reduces the regularization parameter in a series of…
