Many applications require recovering a matrix of minimal rank within an affine constraint set, with matrix completion a notable special case. Because the problem is NP-hard in general, it is common to replace the matrix rank with the…

We consider convex optimization problems which are widely used as convex relaxations for low-rank matrix recovery problems. In particular, in several important problems, such as phase retrieval and robust PCA, the underlying assumption in…

Friedlander, Mac\^{e}do, and Pong recently introduced the projected polar proximal point algorithm (P4A) for solving optimization problems by using the closed perspective transforms of convex objectives. We analyse a generalization (GP4A)…

In this paper, we focus on solving an important class of nonconvex optimization problems which includes many problems for example signal processing over a networked multi-agent system and distributed learning over networks. Motivated by…

In this paper, we propose an improved iterative method for solving the monotone inclusion problem in the form of $0 \in Ax + Dx + N_{C}(x)$ in real Hilbert space, where $A$ is a maximally monotone operator, $D$ and $B$ are monotone and…

Affine projection algorithm (APA) is a well-known algorithm in adaptive filtering applications such as audio echo cancellation. APA relies on three parameters: $P$ (projection order), $\mu$ (step size) and $\delta$ (regularization…

We study the subgradient method for factorized robust signal recovery problems, including robust PCA, robust phase retrieval, and robust matrix sensing. The resulting objectives are nonsmooth and nonconvex, and can have unbounded sublevel…

In a previous work we developed a convex infinite dimensional linear programming (LP) approach to approximating the region of attraction (ROA) of polynomial dynamical systems subject to compact basic semialgebraic state constraints. Finite…

In this paper, we study the low-rank matrix minimization problem, where the loss function is convex but nonsmooth and the penalty term is defined by the cardinality function. We first introduce an exact continuous relaxation, that is, both…

We describe inexact proximal Newton-like methods for solving degenerate regularized optimization problems and for the broader problem of finding a zero of a generalized equation that is the sum of a continuous map and a maximal monotone…

The Power-Relaxed Greedy Algorithm (PRGA) was introduced as a generalization of the so called Relaxed Greedy Algorithm, introduced by DeVore and Temlyakov, by replacing the relaxation parameter $1/m$ with $1/m^\alpha$, with the aim of…

Recently there were proposed some innovative convex optimization concepts, namely, relative smoothness [1] and relative strong convexity [2,3]. These approaches have significantly expanded the class of applicability of gradient-type methods…

Optimized Pulse Patterns (OPPs) are gaining increasing popularity in the power electronics community over the well-studied pulse width modulation due to their inherent ability to provide the switching instances that optimize current…

This paper considers the robust phase retrieval problem, which can be cast as a nonsmooth and nonconvex optimization problem. We propose a new inexact proximal linear algorithm with the subproblem being solved inexactly. Our contributions…

In large-scale applications, such as machine learning, it is desirable to design non-convex optimization algorithms with a high degree of parallelization. In this work, we study the adaptive complexity of finding a stationary point, which…

Proximal policy optimization and trust region policy optimization (PPO and TRPO) with actor and critic parametrized by neural networks achieve significant empirical success in deep reinforcement learning. However, due to nonconvexity, the…

The Douglas-Rachford algorithm (DRA) is a powerful optimization method for minimizing the sum of two convex (not necessarily smooth) functions. The vast majority of previous research dealt with the case when the sum has at least one…

In this paper, a multi-parameterized proximal point algorithm combining with a relaxation step is developed for solving convex minimization problem subject to linear constraints. We show its global convergence and sublinear convergence rate…

The $\ell_p$ regularization problem with $0< p< 1$ has been widely studied for finding sparse solutions of linear inverse problems and gained successful applications in various mathematics and applied science fields. The proximal gradient…
