We introduce new multilevel methods for solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems. Specifically, the philosophy of multilevel methods is applied to Newton-type methods that regularize the Newton sub-problem using second order…

We consider the proximal gradient method on Riemannian manifolds for functions that are possibly not geodesically convex. Starting from the forward-backward-splitting, we define an intrinsic variant of the proximal gradient method that uses…

We present a form of stratified MCMC algorithm built with non-reversible stochastic dynamics in mind. It can also be viewed as a generalization of the exact milestoning method, or form of NEUS. We prove convergence of the method under…

We present a subgradient method for minimizing non-smooth, non-Lipschitz convex optimization problems. The only structure assumed is that a strictly feasible point is known. We extend the work of Renegar [5] by taking a different…

Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) is widely used in machine learning research. Previous convergence analyses of SGD under the vanishing step-size setting typically require Robbins-Monro conditions. However, in practice, a wider variety of…

Momentum methods have been shown to accelerate the convergence of the standard gradient descent algorithm in practice and theory. In particular, the minibatch-based gradient descent methods with momentum (MGDM) are widely used to solve…

The inexact adaptive stepsizes for the conjugate gradient method and the quasi-Newton method are very rare. The exact stepsizes in the gradient method, the conjugate gradient method and the quasi-Newton method for strictly convex quadratic…

We develop a convergence-rate analysis of momentum with cyclical step-sizes. We show that under some assumption on the spectral gap of Hessians in machine learning, cyclical step-sizes are provably faster than constant step-sizes. More…

In this paper, we show that simple {Stochastic} subGradient Decent methods with multiple Restarting, named {\bf RSGD}, can achieve a \textit{linear convergence rate} for a class of non-smooth and non-strongly convex optimization problems…

We propose an extragradient method with stepsizes bounded away from zero for stochastic variational inequalities requiring only pseudo-monotonicity. We provide convergence and complexity analysis, allowing for an unbounded feasible set,…

The convergence rate of stochastic gradient search is analyzed in this paper. Using arguments based on differential geometry and Lojasiewicz inequalities, tight bounds on the convergence rate of general stochastic gradient algorithms are…

In this work, we study the convergence \emph{in high probability} of clipped gradient methods when the noise distribution has heavy tails, ie., with bounded $p$th moments, for some $1<p\le2$. Prior works in this setting follow the same…

We present an adaptive step-size method, which does not include line-search techniques, for solving a wide class of nonconvex multiobjective programming problems on an unbounded constraint set. We also prove convergence of a general…

This paper establishes the theoretical foundations of the online scaled gradient methods (OSGM), a framework that utilizes online learning to adapt stepsizes and provably accelerate first-order methods. OSGM quantifies the effectiveness of…

The gradient method for minimize a differentiable convex function on Riemannian manifolds with lower bounded sectional curvature is analyzed in this paper. The analysis of the method is presented with three different finite procedures for…

Riemannian accelerated gradient methods have been well studied for smooth optimization, typically treating geodesically convex and geodesically strongly convex cases separately. However, their extension to nonsmooth problems on manifolds…

In this work, we consider smooth unconstrained optimization problems and we deal with the class of gradient methods with momentum, i.e., descent algorithms where the search direction is defined as a linear combination of the current…

Many structured data-fitting applications require the solution of an optimization problem involving a sum over a potentially large number of measurements. Incremental gradient algorithms offer inexpensive iterations by sampling a subset of…

Although it is relatively easy to apply, the gradient method often displays a disappointingly slow rate of convergence. Its convergence is specially based on the structure of the matrix of the algebraic linear system, and on the choice of…

In this paper, we deal with multiobjective composite optimization problems, where each objective function is a combination of smooth and possibly non-smooth functions. We first propose a parameter-dependent conditional gradient method to…
