We propose an adaptive accelerated gradient method for solving smooth convex optimization problems. The method incorporates a scheme to determine the step size adaptively, by means of a local estimation of the smoothness constant, which is…

We develop and analyze a new family of {\em nonaccelerated and accelerated loopless variance-reduced methods} for finite sum optimization problems. Our convergence analysis relies on a novel expected smoothness condition which upper bounds…

Optimization over low rank matrices has broad applications in machine learning. For large scale problems, an attractive heuristic is to factorize the low rank matrix to a product of two much smaller matrices. In this paper, we study the…

Recently, many variance reduced stochastic alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) methods (e.g.\ SAG-ADMM, SDCA-ADMM and SVRG-ADMM) have made exciting progress such as linear convergence rates for strongly convex problems.…

In the paper, we propose a class of faster adaptive Gradient Descent Ascent (GDA) methods for solving the nonconvex-strongly-concave minimax problems by using the unified adaptive matrices, which include almost all existing coordinate-wise…

In this paper, we propose a novel accelerated forward-backward splitting algorithm for minimizing convex composite functions, written as the sum of a smooth function and a (possibly) nonsmooth function. When the objective function is…

Existing analysis of AdaGrad and other adaptive methods for smooth convex optimization is typically for functions with bounded domain diameter. In unconstrained problems, previous works guarantee an asymptotic convergence rate without an…

This paper is devoted to first-order algorithms for smooth convex optimization with inexact gradients. Unlike the majority of the literature on this topic, we consider the setting of relative rather than absolute inexactness. More…

We investigate the Randomized Stochastic Accelerated Gradient (RSAG) method, utilizing either constant or adaptive step sizes, for stochastic optimization problems with generalized smooth objective functions. Under relaxed affine variance…

We analyze the convergence rate of the monotone accelerated proximal gradient method, which can be used to solve structured convex composite optimization problems. A linear convergence rate is established when the smooth part of the…

We propose a new algorithm for finite sum optimization which we call the curvature-aided incremental aggregated gradient (CIAG) method. Motivated by the problem of training a classifier for a d-dimensional problem, where the number of…

Based on SGD, previous works have proposed many algorithms that have improved convergence speed and generalization in stochastic optimization, such as SGDm, AdaGrad, Adam, etc. However, their convergence analysis under non-convex conditions…

Two accelerated first-order methods, HNAG$^+$ and HNAG$^{++}$, are presented for smooth strongly convex optimization. By optimizing the coercivity constant of the HNAG flow and using a refined Lyapunov analysis, it is shown that HNAG$^+$…

For minimizing a strongly convex objective function subject to linear inequality constraints, we consider a penalty approach that allows one to utilize stochastic methods for problems with a large number of constraints and/or objective…

We study the conditions under which one is able to efficiently apply variance-reduction and acceleration schemes on finite sum optimization problems. First, we show that, perhaps surprisingly, the finite sum structure by itself, is not…

We propose an adaptive proximal gradient method for minimizing the sum of two functions, where one is a simple convex function, and the other belongs to one of the three classes: nonconvex smooth, convex nonsmooth, or convex smooth. The key…

The total complexity (measured as the total number of gradient computations) of a stochastic first-order optimization algorithm that finds a first-order stationary point of a finite-sum smooth nonconvex objective function $F(w)=\frac{1}{n}…

We develop a class of algorithms, as variants of the stochastically controlled stochastic gradient (SCSG) methods (Lei and Jordan, 2016), for the smooth non-convex finite-sum optimization problem. Assuming the smoothness of each component,…

This paper studies an acceleration technique for incremental aggregated gradient ({\sf IAG}) method through the use of \emph{curvature} information for solving strongly convex finite sum optimization problems. These optimization problems of…

This paper presents an accelerated proximal gradient method for multiobjective optimization, in which each objective function is the sum of a continuously differentiable, convex function and a closed, proper, convex function. Extending…
