Recently, there has been growing interest in developing optimization methods for solving large-scale machine learning problems. Most of these problems boil down to the problem of minimizing an average of a finite set of smooth and strongly…

We propose a new randomized coordinate descent method for a convex optimization template with broad applications. Our analysis relies on a novel combination of four ideas applied to the primal-dual gap function: smoothing, acceleration,…

We introduce and analyze a continuous primal-dual dynamical system in the context of the minimization problem $f(x)+g(Ax)$, where $f$ and $g$ are convex functions and $A$ is a linear operator. In this setting, the trajectories of the…

We study nonconvex finite-sum problems and analyze stochastic variance reduced gradient (SVRG) methods for them. SVRG and related methods have recently surged into prominence for convex optimization given their edge over stochastic gradient…

We consider the problem of minimizing a function, which is the sum of a linear function and a composition of a strongly convex function with a linear transformation, over a compact polyhedral set. Jaggi and Lacoste-Julien [14] showed that…

The saddle-point problems (SPPs) with nonlinear coupling operators frequently arise in various control systems, such as dynamic programming optimization, H-infinity control, and Lyapunov stability analysis. However, traditional primal-dual…

We propose a novel continuous-time algorithm for inequality-constrained convex optimization inspired by proportional-integral control. Unlike the popular primal-dual gradient dynamics, our method includes a proportional term to control the…
