The limited memory BFGS (L-BFGS) method is one of the popular methods for solving large-scale unconstrained optimization. Since the standard L-BFGS method uses a line search to guarantee its global convergence, it sometimes requires a large…

We introduce a proximal limited--memory quasi--Newton scheme for minimizing the sum of a continuously differentiable function and a proper, lower semicontinuous and prox-bounded, possibly nonsmooth, function. Both functions might be…

Optimization problems with composite functions consist of an objective function which is the sum of a smooth and a (convex) nonsmooth term. This particular structure is exploited by the class of proximal gradient methods and some of their…

We consider the problem of minimizing a continuous function that may be nonsmooth and nonconvex, subject to bound constraints. We propose an algorithm that uses the L-BFGS quasi-Newton approximation of the problem's curvature together with…

Many practical optimization problems involve objective function values that are corrupted by unavoidable numerical errors. In smooth nonconvex optimization, quasi-Newton methods combined with line search are widely used due to their…

Update formulas for the Hessian approximations in quasi-Newton methods such as BFGS can be derived as analytical solutions to certain nearest-matrix problems. In this article, we propose a similar idea for deriving new limited memory…

We extend the well-known BFGS quasi-Newton method and its memory-limited variant LBFGS to the optimization of nonsmooth convex objectives. This is done in a rigorous fashion by generalizing three components of BFGS to subdifferentials: the…

In this paper, based on the limited memory techniques and subspace minimization conjugate gradient (SMCG) methods, a regularized limited memory subspace minimization conjugate gradient method is proposed, which contains two types of…

Stochastic gradient descent and other first-order variants, such as Adam and AdaGrad, are commonly used in the field of deep learning due to their computational efficiency and low-storage memory requirements. However, these methods do not…

We investigate quasi-Newton methods for minimizing a strictly convex quadratic function which is subject to errors in the evaluation of the gradients. The methods all give identical behavior in exact arithmetic, generating minimizers of…

This paper presents a regularized Newton method (RNM) with generalized regularization terms for unconstrained convex optimization problems. The generalized regularization includes quadratic, cubic, and elastic net regularizations as special…

This paper describes an extension of the BFGS and L-BFGS methods for the minimization of a nonlinear function subject to errors. This work is motivated by applications that contain computational noise, employ low-precision arithmetic, or…

Motivated by applications arising from large scale optimization and machine learning, we consider stochastic quasi-Newton (SQN) methods for solving unconstrained convex optimization problems. The convergence analysis of the SQN methods,…

In [19], a general, inexact, efficient proximal quasi-Newton algorithm for composite optimization problems has been proposed and a sublinear global convergence rate has been established. In this paper, we analyze the convergence properties…

We consider a family of dense initializations for limited-memory quasi-Newton methods. The proposed initialization exploits an eigendecomposition-based separation of the full space into two complementary subspaces, assigning a different…

We study a Newton-like method for the minimization of an objective function that is the sum of a smooth convex function and an l-1 regularization term. This method, which is sometimes referred to in the literature as a proximal Newton…

For general large-scale optimization problems compact representations exist in which recursive quasi-Newton update formulas are represented as compact matrix factorizations. For problems in which the objective function contains additional…

This study proposes a cubic regularization of the Newton method for generating weakly efficient points of unconstrained vector optimization problems under no convexity assumption on the objective function. It is observed that at a given…

In this paper, we study the iteration complexity of cubic regularization of Newton method for solving composite minimization problems with uniformly convex objective. We introduce the notion of second-order condition number of a certain…

We present two sampled quasi-Newton methods (sampled LBFGS and sampled LSR1) for solving empirical risk minimization problems that arise in machine learning. Contrary to the classical variants of these methods that sequentially build…
