We consider convex-concave saddle-point problems where the objective functions may be split in many components, and extend recent stochastic variance reduction methods (such as SVRG or SAGA) to provide the first large-scale linearly…
In this work, we present and analyze C-SAGA, a (deterministic) cyclic variant of SAGA. C-SAGA is an incremental gradient method that minimizes a sum of differentiable convex functions by cyclically accessing their gradients. Even though the…
We present global convergence rates for a line-search method which is based on random first-order models and directions whose quality is ensured only with certain probability. We show that in terms of the order of the accuracy, the…
This paper proposes a new algorithm for solving constrained global optimization problems where both the objective function and constraints are one-dimensional non-differentiable multiextremal Lipschitz functions. Multiextremal constraints…
We present a general technique for the analysis of first-order methods. The technique relies on the construction of a duality gap for an appropriate approximation of the objective function, where the function approximation improves as the…
The idea of unfolding iterative algorithms as deep neural networks has been widely applied in solving sparse coding problems, providing both solid theoretical analysis in convergence rate and superior empirical performance. However, for…
A new stochastic primal--dual algorithm for solving a composite optimization problem is proposed. It is assumed that all the functions/operators that enter the optimization problem are given as statistical expectations. These expectations…
The split covariance intersection filter (split CIF) is a useful tool for general data fusion and has the potential to be applied in a variety of engineering tasks. An indispensable optimization step (referred to as w-optimization) involved…
This paper proposes a new backtracking strategy based on the FISTA accelerated algorithm for multiobjective optimization problems. The strategy focuses on solving the problem of Lipschitz constant being unknown. It allows estimate parameter…
Using convex combination and linesearch techniques, we introduce a novel primal-dual algorithm for solving structured convex-concave saddle point problems with a generic smooth nonbilinear coupling term. Our adaptive linesearch strategy…
In this paper, we describe a novel iterative procedure called SISTA to learn the underlying cost in optimal transport problems. SISTA is a hybrid between two classical methods, coordinate descent ("S"-inkhorn) and proximal gradient descent…
The "Inertial Forward-Backward algorithm" (IFB) is a powerful tool for convex nonsmooth minimization problems, it gives the well known "fast iterative shrinkage-thresholding algorithm " (FISTA), which enjoys $O\left( {\frac{1}{{{k^2}}}}…
In order to achieve reliable communication with a high data rate of massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems in frequency division duplex (FDD) mode, the estimated channel state information (CSI) at the receiver needs to be fed…
This work provides the first finite-time convergence guarantees for linearly constrained stochastic bilevel optimization using only first-order methods, requiring solely gradient information without any Hessian computations or second-order…
We present new analysis and algorithm of the dual-averaging-type (DA-type) methods for solving the composite convex optimization problem ${\min}_{x\in\mathbb{R}^n} \, f(\mathsf{A} x) + h(x)$, where $f$ is a convex and globally Lipschitz…
The state transition algorithm (STA), as an intelligent optimization method grounded in constructivist learning, has been demonstrated to be highly effective in solving complex optimization problems. However, the standard STA suffers from…
The paper proposes and justifies a new algorithm of the proximal Newton type to solve a broad class of nonsmooth composite convex optimization problems without strong convexity assumptions. Based on advanced notions and techniques of…
We consider the convex-concave saddle point problem $\min_{x}\max_{y} f(x)+y^\top A x-g(y)$ where $f$ is smooth and convex and $g$ is smooth and strongly convex. We prove that if the coupling matrix $A$ has full column rank, the vanilla…
This paper presents a proximal-point-based catalyst scheme for simple first-order methods applied to convex minimization and convex-concave minimax problems. In particular, for smooth and (strongly)-convex minimization problems, the…
We propose a simple variant of the generalized Frank-Wolfe method for solving strongly convex composite optimization problems, by introducing an additional averaging step on the dual variables. We show that in this variant, one can choose a…
