In this paper, we propose a novel extrapolation coefficient scheme within a new extrapolation term and develop an accelerated proximal gradient algorithm. We establish that the algorithm achieves a sublinear convergence rate. The proposed…
Gradient descent methods are fundamental first-order optimization algorithms in both Euclidean spaces and Riemannian manifolds. However, the exact gradient is not readily available in many scenarios. This paper proposes a novel inexact…
Proximal gradient methods are a popular tool for the solution of structured, nonsmooth minimization problems. In this work, we investigate an extension of the former to general Banach spaces and provide worst-case convergence rates for,…
We propose and analyze a randomized zeroth-order approach based on approximating the exact gradient byfinite differences computed in a set of orthogonal random directions that changes with each iteration. A number ofpreviously proposed…
This paper presents and investigates an inexact proximal gradient method for solving composite convex optimization problems characterized by an objective function composed of a sum of a full-domain differentiable convex function and a…
We consider a variable metric linesearch based proximal gradient method for the minimization of the sum of a smooth, possibly nonconvex function plus a convex, possibly nonsmooth term. We prove convergence of this iterative algorithm to a…
We consider the classical gradient descent algorithm with constant stepsizes, where some error is introduced in the computation of each gradient. More specifically, we assume some relative bound on the inexactness, in the sense that the…
Proximal point algorithm has found many applications, and it has been playing fundamental roles in the understanding, design, and analysis of many first-order methods. In this paper, we derive the tight convergence rate in subgradient norm…
In this paper, we study the convergence properties of the Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) method for finding a stationary point of a given objective function $J(\cdot)$. The objective function is not required to be convex. Rather, our…
We consider solving nonconvex composite optimization problems in which the sum of a smooth function and a nonsmooth function is minimized. Many of convergence analyses of proximal gradient-type methods rely on global descent property…
Most prior work on the convergence of gradient descent (GD) for overparameterized neural networks relies on strong assumptions on the step size (infinitesimal), the hidden-layer width (infinite), or the initialization (large, spectral,…
In this paper, we study the proximal gradient algorithm with extrapolation for minimizing the sum of a Lipschitz differentiable function and a proper closed convex function. Under the error bound condition used in [19] for analyzing the…
We propose a new stochastic gradient method for optimizing the sum of a finite set of smooth functions, where the sum is strongly convex. While standard stochastic gradient methods converge at sublinear rates for this problem, the proposed…
In this paper we introduce two novel generalizations of the theory for gradient descent type methods in the proximal setting. First, we introduce the proportion function, which we further use to analyze all known (and many new)…
There are much recent interests in solving noncovnex min-max optimization problems due to its broad applications in many areas including machine learning, networked resource allocations, and distributed optimization. Perhaps, the most…
This paper investigates the optimal ergodic sublinear convergence rate of the relaxed proximal point algorithm for solving monotone variational inequality problems. The exact worst case convergence rate is computed using the performance…
This paper focuses on the online gradient and proximal-gradient methods with stochastic gradient errors. In particular, we examine the performance of the online gradient descent method when the cost satisfies the Polyak-\L ojasiewicz (PL)…
We prove explicit bounds on the exponential rate of convergence for the momentum stochastic gradient descent scheme (MSGD) for arbitrary, fixed hyperparameters (learning rate, friction parameter) and its continuous-in-time counterpart in…
Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) has been studied extensively over the past decades due to its simplicity and broad applicability in machine learning. In this work, we analyze the local behavior of gradient descent and stochastic gradient…
In this paper, we present a new complexity result for the gradient descent method with an appropriately fixed stepsize for minimizing a strongly convex function with locally $\alpha$-H{\"o}lder continuous gradients ($0 < \alpha \leq 1$).…
