In this paper, we propose a novel accelerated stochastic gradient method with momentum, which momentum is the weighted average of previous gradients. The weights decays inverse proportionally with the iteration times. Stochastic gradient…

We propose a stochastic conditional gradient method (CGM) for minimizing convex finite-sum objectives formed as a sum of smooth and non-smooth terms. Existing CGM variants for this template either suffer from slow convergence rates, or…

In this paper, we propose a proximal gradient method and an accelerated proximal gradient method for solving composite optimization problems, where the objective function is the sum of a smooth and a convex, possibly nonsmooth, function. We…

The article proposes a Caputo fractional conjugate gradient (CFCG) method for unconstrained optimization problems which is applicable to smooth as well as non-smooth problmes. The proposed method uses a non-adaptive version of the Caputo…

Composite optimization problems, where the sum of a smooth and a merely lower semicontinuous function has to be minimized, are often tackled numerically by means of proximal gradient methods as soon as the lower semicontinuous part of the…

In this paper we develop accelerated first-order methods for convex optimization with locally Lipschitz continuous gradient (LLCG), which is beyond the well-studied class of convex optimization with Lipschitz continuous gradient. In…

Line search (or backtracking) procedures have been widely employed into first-order methods for solving convex optimization problems, especially those with unknown problem parameters (e.g., Lipschitz constant). In this paper, we show that…

We present a performant gradient method for smooth convex optimization, drawing inspiration from several recent advances in the field. Our algorithm, the Adaptive Subgame Perfect Gradient Method (ASPGM) is based on the notion of subgame…

In this paper, we propose some accelerated methods for solving optimization problems under the condition of relatively smooth and relatively Lipschitz continuous functions with an inexact oracle. We consider the problem of minimizing the…

The recently introduced Gradient Methods with Memory use a subset of the past oracle information to create an accurate model of the objective function that enables them to surpass the Gradient Method in practical performance. The model…

The incremental gradient method is a prominent algorithm for minimizing a finite sum of smooth convex functions, used in many contexts including large-scale data processing applications and distributed optimization over networks. It is a…

Many recent studies on first-order methods (FOMs) focus on \emph{composite non-convex non-smooth} optimization with linear and/or nonlinear function constraints. Upper (or worst-case) complexity bounds have been established for these…

The Bregman proximal gradient method (BPGM), which uses the Bregman distance as a proximity measure in the iterative scheme, has recently been re-developed for minimizing convex composite problems without the global Lipschitz gradient…

We propose a novel Caputo fractional derivative-based optimization algorithm. Upon defining the Caputo fractional gradient with respect to the Cartesian coordinate, we present a generic Caputo fractional gradient descent (CFGD) method. We…

We present a subgradient method for minimizing non-smooth, non-Lipschitz convex optimization problems. The only structure assumed is that a strictly feasible point is known. We extend the work of Renegar [5] by taking a different…

We consider first order gradient methods for effectively optimizing a composite objective in the form of a sum of smooth and, potentially, non-smooth functions. We present accelerated and adaptive gradient methods, called FLAG and FLARE,…

The fractional order grey models (FGM) have appealed considerable interest of research in recent years due to its higher effectiveness and flexibility than the conventional grey models and other prediction models. However, the definitions…

We analyze a fast incremental aggregated gradient method for optimizing nonconvex problems of the form $\min_x \sum_i f_i(x)$. Specifically, we analyze the SAGA algorithm within an Incremental First-order Oracle framework, and show that it…

A subgradient method is presented for solving general convex optimization problems, the main requirement being that a strictly-feasible point is known. A feasible sequence of iterates is generated, which converges to within user-specified…

Gradient dominance property is a condition weaker than strong convexity, yet sufficiently ensures global convergence even in non-convex optimization. This property finds wide applications in machine learning, reinforcement learning (RL),…
