In this paper, we consider nonconvex optimization problems with nonsmooth nonconvex objective function and nonlinear equality constraints. We assume that both the objective function and the functional constraints can be separated into 2…

Automatic segmentation of an image to identify all meaningful parts is one of the most challenging as well as useful tasks in a number of application areas. This is widely studied. Selective segmentation, less studied, aims to use limited…

Precision matrix estimation is a fundamental topic in multivariate statistics and modern machine learning. This paper proposes an adversarially perturbed precision matrix estimation framework, motivated by recent developments in adversarial…

In this work we explore the fundamental structure-adaptiveness of state of the art randomized first order algorithms on regularized empirical risk minimization tasks, where the solution has intrinsic low-dimensional structure (such as…

We present evidence that multigrid (MG) works for wave equations in disordered systems, e.g. in the presence of gauge fields, no matter how strong the disorder. We introduce a "neural computations" point of view into large scale…

Stochastic gradient methods for minimizing nonconvex composite objective functions typically rely on the Lipschitz smoothness of the differentiable part, but this assumption fails in many important problem classes like quadratic inverse…

Anderson Acceleration (AA) has been widely used to solve nonlinear fixed-point problems due to its rapid convergence. This work focuses on a variant of AA in which multiple Picard iterations are performed between each AA step, referred to…

Multigrid solvers are the standard in modern scientific computing simulations. Domain Decomposition Aggregation-Based Algebraic Multigrid, also known as the DD-$\alpha$AMG solver, is a successful realization of an algebraic multigrid solver…

Stochastic Proximal Gradient (SPG) methods have been widely used for solving optimization problems with a simple (possibly non-smooth) regularizer in machine learning and statistics. However, to the best of our knowledge no non-asymptotic…

Consider solving large sparse range symmetric singular linear systems $ A {\bf x}= {\bf b} $ which arise, for instance, in the discretization of convection diffusion equations with periodic boundary conditions, and partial differential…

Probabilistic graphical models (PGMs) are powerful tools for solving systems of complex relationships over a variety of probability distributions. However, while tree-structured PGMs always result in efficient and exact solutions, inference…

Thanks to its versatility, its simplicity, and its fast convergence, ADMM is among the most widely used approaches for solving a convex problem in distributed form. However, making it running efficiently is an art that requires a fine…

Time-parallel algorithms seek greater concurrency by decomposing the temporal domain of a Partial Differential Equation (PDE), providing possibilities for accelerating the computation of its solution. While parallelisation in time has…

Adaptive optimization methods such as AdaGrad, RMSprop and Adam have been proposed to achieve a rapid training process with an element-wise scaling term on learning rates. Though prevailing, they are observed to generalize poorly compared…

Alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is a popular optimization tool for the composite and constrained problems in machine learning. However, in many machine learning problems such as black-box attacks and bandit feedback, ADMM…

In this note, we show a sublinear nonergodic convergence rate for the algorithm developed in [Bai, et al. Generalized symmetric ADMM for separable convex optimization. Comput. Optim. Appl. 70, 129-170 (2018)], as well as its linear…

State-of-the-art methods for solving smooth optimization problems are nonlinear conjugate gradient, low memory BFGS, and Majorize-Minimize (MM) subspace algorithms. The MM subspace algorithm which has been introduced more recently has shown…

In this work we consider the stochastic minimization of nonsmooth convex loss functions, a central problem in machine learning. We propose a novel algorithm called Accelerated Nonsmooth Stochastic Gradient Descent (ANSGD), which exploits…

Parareal and multigrid reduction in time (MGRiT) are two of the most popular parallel-in-time methods. The idea is to treat time integration in a parallel context by using a multigrid method in time. If $\Phi$ is a (fine-grid) time-stepping…

Most modern learning problems are highly overparameterized, meaning that there are many more parameters than the number of training data points, and as a result, the training loss may have infinitely many global minima (parameter vectors…
