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.…

Nonconvex and nonsmooth optimization problems are frequently encountered in much of statistics, business, science and engineering, but they are not yet widely recognized as a technology in the sense of scalability. A reason for this…

An usual problem in statistics consists in estimating the minimizer of a convex function. When we have to deal with large samples taking values in high dimensional spaces, stochastic gradient algorithms and their averaged versions are…

We introduce a novel adaptive damping technique for an inertial gradient system which finds application as a gradient descent algorithm for unconstrained optimisation. In an example using the non-convex Rosenbrock's function, we show an…

This paper proposes a novel CTA (Combine-Then-Adapt)-based decentralized algorithm for solving convex composite optimization problems over undirected and connected networks. The local loss function in these problems contains both smooth and…

In this paper, we study an explicit Tikhonov-regularized inertial gradient algorithm for smooth convex minimization with Lipschitz continuous gradient. The method is derived via an explicit time discretization of a damped inertial system…

We present a variant of accelerated gradient descent algorithms, adapted from Nesterov's optimal first-order methods, for weakly-quasi-convex and weakly-quasi-strongly-convex functions. We show that by tweaking the so-called estimate…

Conventional algorithms for sparse signal recovery and sparse representation rely on $l_1$-norm regularized variational methods. However, when applied to the reconstruction of $\textit{sparse images}$, i.e., images where only a few pixels…

We propose a new fast algorithm for solving one of the standard formulations of image restoration and reconstruction which consists of an unconstrained optimization problem where the objective includes an $\ell_2$ data-fidelity term and a…

In this paper some adaptive mirror descent algorithms for problems of minimization convex objective functional with several convex Lipschitz (generally, non-smooth) functional constraints are considered. It is shown that the methods are…

Block-coordinate algorithms are recognized to furnish efficient iterative schemes for addressing large-scale problems, especially when the computation of full derivatives entails substantial memory requirements and computational efforts. In…

We consider a class of nonsmooth optimization problems over the Stiefel manifold, in which the objective function is weakly convex in the ambient Euclidean space. Such problems are ubiquitous in engineering applications but still largely…

In a Hilbert setting we aim to study a second order in time differential equation, combining viscous and Hessian-driven damping, containing a time scaling parameter function and a Tikhonov regularization term. The dynamical system is…

This paper focuses on minimizing a smooth function combined with a nonsmooth regularization term on a compact Riemannian submanifold embedded in the Euclidean space under a decentralized setting. Typically, there are two types of approaches…

An adaptive regularization algorithm for unconstrained nonconvex optimization is proposed that is capable of handling inexact objective-function and derivative values, and also of providing approximate minimizer of arbitrary order. In…

We study a class of optimization problems on Riemannian manifolds, where the objective function consists of a smooth term and quasi-norm type penalties with exponent $p \in (0, 1]$. The essential difficulty lies in the fact that the…

This paper investigates a category of constrained fractional optimization problems that emerge in various practical applications. The objective function for this category is characterized by the ratio of a numerator and denominator, both…

This paper presents a novel stochastic optimisation methodology to perform empirical Bayesian inference in semi-blind image deconvolution problems. Given a blurred image and a parametric class of possible operators, the proposed…

We present a structure-preserving Eulerian algorithm for solving $L^2$-gradient flows and a structure-preserving Lagrangian algorithm for solving generalized diffusions. Both algorithms employ neural networks as tools for spatial…

We propose an adaptive regularization scheme in a variational framework where a convex composite energy functional is optimized. We consider a number of imaging problems including denoising, segmentation and motion estimation, which are…
