We consider the problem of minimizing the sum of two convex functions. One of those functions has Lipschitz-continuous gradients, and can be accessed via stochastic oracles, whereas the other is "simple". We provide a Bregman-type algorithm…

Finite-sum Coupled Compositional Optimization (FCCO), characterized by its coupled compositional objective structure, emerges as an important optimization paradigm for addressing a wide range of machine learning problems. In this paper, we…

We propose an accelerated meta-algorithm, which allows to obtain accelerated methods for convex unconstrained minimization in different settings. As an application of the general scheme we propose nearly optimal methods for minimizing…

In this paper, we focus on finding the global minimizer of a general unconstrained nonsmooth nonconvex optimization problem. Taking advantage of the smoothing method and the consensus-based optimization (CBO) method, we propose a novel…

We present a Compressive Sensing algorithm for reconstructing binary signals from its linear measurements. The proposed algorithm minimizes a non-convex cost function expressed as a weighted sum of smoothed $\ell_0$ norms which takes into…

Many inverse problems are phrased as optimization problems in which the objective function is the sum of a data-fidelity term and a regularization. Often, the Hessian of the fidelity term is computationally unavailable while the Hessian of…

We propose a novel study of the stochastic proximal gradient method for minimizing the sum of two convex functions, one of which is smooth. Under suitable assumptions and without requiring any boundedness or control of the variance of the…

Recent advances in randomized incremental methods for minimizing $L$-smooth $\mu$-strongly convex finite sums have culminated in tight complexity of $\tilde{O}((n+\sqrt{n L/\mu})\log(1/\epsilon))$ and $O(n+\sqrt{nL/\epsilon})$, where…

We propose a penalty-based smoothing framework for convex nonsmooth functions with a supremum structure. The regularization yields a differentiable surrogate with controlled approximation error, a single-valued dual maximizer, and explicit…

An adaptive regularization algorithm for unconstrained nonconvex optimization is presented in which the objective function is never evaluated, but only derivatives are used. This algorithm belongs to the class of adaptive regularization…

We investigate the convergence of a forward-backward-forward proximal-type algorithm with inertial and memory effects when minimizing the sum of a nonsmooth function with a smooth one in the absence of convexity. The convergence is obtained…

In this paper, we consider a nonconvex optimization problem with nonlinear equality constraints. We assume that both, the objective function and the functional constraints are locally smooth. For solving this problem, we propose a…

In this paper, we propose a Bregman frame for several classical alternating minimization algorithms. In the frame, these algorithms have uniform mathematical formulation. We also present convergence analysis for the frame algorithm. Under…

In this paper, we explore a specific optimization problem that involves the combination of a differentiable nonconvex function and a nondifferentiable function. The differentiable component lacks a global Lipschitz continuous gradient,…

We introduce and analyze BPALM and A-BPALM, two multi-block proximal alternating linearized minimization algorithms using Bregman distances for solving structured nonconvex problems. The objective function is the sum of a multi-block…

This paper considers the minimization of a continuously differentiable function over a cardinality constraint. We focus on smooth and relatively smooth functions. These smoothness criteria result in new descent lemmas. Based on the new…

This paper addresses the minimization of a finite sum of prox-convex functions under Lipschitz continuity of each component. We propose two variants of the splitting proximal point algorithms proposed in \cite{Bacak,Bertsekas}: one…

We study the impact of nonconvexity on the complexity of nonsmooth optimization, emphasizing objectives such as piecewise linear functions, which may not be weakly convex. We focus on a dimension-independent analysis, slightly modifying a…

We consider a family of algorithms that successively sample and minimize simple stochastic models of the objective function. We show that under reasonable conditions on approximation quality and regularity of the models, any such algorithm…

Convex risk measures play a foundational role in the area of stochastic optimization. However, in contrast to risk neutral models, their applications are still limited due to the lack of efficient solution methods. In particular, the mean…
