We study a class of optimization problems in which the objective function is given by the sum of a differentiable but possibly nonconvex component and a nondifferentiable convex regularization term. We introduce an auxiliary variable to…
We propose a new globally convergent stochastic second order method. Our starting point is the development of a new Sketched Newton-Raphson (SNR) method for solving large scale nonlinear equations of the form $F(x)=0$ with $F:\mathbb{R}^p…
Kernel quantile regression (KQR) extends classical quantile regression to nonlinear settings using kernel methods, offering a powerful tool for modeling conditional distributions. However, its application to large-scale datasets remains…

Binary tomography is concerned with the recovery of binary images from a few of their projections (i.e., sums of the pixel values along various directions). To reconstruct an image from noisy projection data, one can pose it as a…
We present an alternating augmented Lagrangian method for convex optimization problems where the cost function is the sum of two terms, one that is separable in the variable blocks, and a second that is separable in the difference between…

Stochastic gradient method (SGM) has been popularly applied to solve optimization problems with objective that is stochastic or an average of many functions. Most existing works on SGMs assume that the underlying problem is unconstrained or…

Decentralized sparsity learning has attracted a significant amount of attention recently due to its rapidly growing applications. To obtain the robust and sparse estimators, a natural idea is to adopt the non-smooth median loss combined…
