In this expository paper, we show how to use the Douglas-Rachford algorithm as a successful heuristic for finding magic squares. The Douglas-Rachford algorithm is an iterative projection method for solving feasibility problems. Although its…
In this paper, we study the generalized Douglas-Rachford algorithm and its cyclic variants which include many projection-type methods such as the classical Douglas-Rachford algorithm and the alternating projection algorithm. Specifically,…
Solving feasibility problems is a central task in mathematics and the applied sciences. One particularly successful method is the Douglas-Rachford algorithm. In this paper, we provide many new conditions sufficient for finite convergence.…
The Douglas-Rachford algorithm is a simple yet effective method for solving convex feasibility problems. However, if the underlying constraints are inconsistent, then the convergence theory is incomplete. We provide convergence results when…
Many iterative methods for solving optimization or feasibility problems have been invented, and often convergence of the iterates to some solution is proven. Under favourable conditions, one might have additional bounds on the distance of…
We discuss recent positive experiences applying convex feasibility algorithms of Douglas--Rachford type to highly combinatorial and far from convex problems.
The Douglas--Rachford algorithm is a popular algorithm for solving both convex and nonconvex feasibility problems. While its behaviour is settled in the convex inconsistent case, the general nonconvex inconsistent case is far from being…
This paper proposes an algorithm for solving structured optimization problems, which covers both the backward-backward and the Douglas-Rachford algorithms as special cases, and analyzes its convergence. The set of fixed points of the…
Feasibility problem aims to find a common point of two or more closed (convex) sets whose intersection is nonempty. In the literature, projection based algorithms are widely adopted to solve the problem, such as the method of alternating…
The Douglas-Rachford projection algorithm is an iterative method used to find a point in the intersection of closed constraint sets. The algorithm has been experimentally observed to solve various nonconvex feasibility problems which…
In recent times the Douglas-Rachford algorithm has been observed empirically to solve a variety of nonconvex feasibility problems including those of a combinatorial nature. For many of these problems current theory is not sufficient to…
We discuss the Douglas-Rachford algorithm to solve the feasibility problem for two closed sets $A,B$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We prove its local convergence to a fixed point when $A,B$ are finite unions of convex sets. We also show that for more…
We study the cyclic relaxed Douglas-Rachford algorithm for possibly nonconvex, and inconsistent feasibility problems. This algorithm can be viewed as a convex relaxation between the cyclic Douglas-Rachford algorithm first introduced by…
The Douglas-Rachford algorithm is a classical and very successful method for solving optimization and feasibility problems. In this paper, we provide novel conditions sufficient for finite convergence in the context of convex feasibility…
The Douglas-Rachford method has been employed successfully to solve many kinds of non-convex feasibility problems. In particular, recent research has shown surprising stability for the method when it is applied to finding the intersections…
In this paper we give general recommendations for successful application of the Douglas-Rachford reflection method to convex and non-convex real matrix-completion problems. These guidelines are demonstrated by various illustrative examples.
In this paper, we propose a new algorithm combining the Douglas-Rachford (DR) algorithm and the Frank-Wolfe algorithm, also known as the conditional gradient (CondG) method, for solving the classic convex feasibility problem. Within the…
We prove that the Douglas--Rachford method applied to two closed convex cones in the Euclidean plane converges in finitely many steps if and only if the set of fixed points of the Douglas--Rachford operator is nontrivial. We analyze this…
The Douglas--Rachford algorithm is a classic splitting method for finding a zero of the sum of two maximal monotone operators. It has also been applied to settings that involve one weakly and one strongly monotone operator. In this work, we…
In this paper, we study a parameterized Douglas-Rachford splitting method for a class of nonconvex optimization problem. A new merit function is constructed to establish the convergence of the whole sequence generated by the parameterized…
