Adaptive Multilevel Splitting (AMS for short) is a generic Monte Carlo method for Markov processes that simulates rare events and estimates associated probabilities. Despite its practical efficiency, there are almost no theoretical results…

The basic optimization problem of road design is quite challenging due to a objective function that is the sum of nonsmooth functions and the presence of set constraints. In this paper, we model and solve this problem by employing the…

We revisit the classical Douglas-Rachford (DR) method for finding a zero of the sum of two maximal monotone operators. Since the practical performance of the DR method crucially depends on the stepsizes, we aim at developing an adaptive…

Recently, there has been an increasing interest in using tools from dynamical systems to analyze the behavior of simple optimization algorithms such as gradient descent and accelerated variants. This paper strengthens such connections by…

Some variants of the (block) Gauss--Seidel iteration for the solution of linear systems with $M$-matrices in (block) Hessenberg form are discussed. Comparison results for the asymptotic convergence rate of some regular splittings are…

The Augmented Lagragian Method (ALM) and Alternating Direction Method of Multiplier (ADMM) have been powerful optimization methods for general convex programming subject to linear constraint. We consider the convex problem whose objective…

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…

In this paper we propose a distributed implementation of the relaxed Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers algorithm (R-ADMM) for optimization of a separable convex cost function, whose terms are stored by a set of interacting agents,…

Inexact alternating direction multiplier methods (ADMMs) are developed for solving general separable convex optimization problems with a linear constraint and with an objective that is the sum of smooth and nonsmooth terms. The approach…

This work is concerned with the convergence rate analysis of the Douglas-Rachford splitting (DRS) method for finding a zero of the sum of two maximally monotone operators. We obtain an exact rate of convergence for the DRS algorithm and…

Over the past years, operator splitting methods have become ubiquitous for non-smooth optimization owing to their simplicity and efficiency. In this paper, we consider the Forward--Douglas--Rachford splitting method (FDR) [10,40], and study…

In recent years, several convergent multi-block variants of the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) have been proposed for solving the convex quadratic semidefinite programming via its dual, which is naturally a 3-block…

The Douglas-Rachford algorithm is a popular method for finding zeros of sums of monotone operators. By its definition, the Douglas-Rachford operator is not symmetric with respect to the order of the two operators. In this paper we provide a…

In this paper, we show that for a class of linearly constrained convex composite optimization problems, an (inexact) symmetric Gauss-Seidel based majorized multi-block proximal alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is…

This paper provides a theoretical and numerical comparison of classical first-order splitting methods for solving smooth convex optimization problems and cocoercive equations. From a theoretical point of view, we compare convergence rates…

In this paper, we propose a novel distributed algorithm for consensus optimization over networks and a robust extension tailored to deal with asynchronous agents and packet losses. Indeed, to robustly achieve dynamic consensus on the…

This paper considers constrained linear dynamic games with quadratic objective functions, which can be cast as affine variational inequalities. By leveraging the problem structure, we apply the Douglas-Rachford splitting, which generates a…

We introduce an inertial variant of the forward-Douglas-Rachford splitting and analyze its convergence. We specify an instance of the proposed method to the three-composite convex minimization template. We provide practical guidance on the…

The Douglas--Rachford method is a splitting method frequently employed for finding zeroes of sums of maximally monotone operators. When the operators in question are normal cones operators, the iterated process may be used to solve…

The classic Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) is a popular framework to solve linear-equality constrained problems. In this paper, we extend the ADMM naturally to nonlinear equality-constrained problems, called neADMM. The…
