L-BFGS is a hill climbing method that is guarantied to converge only for convex problems. In computer graphics, it is often used as a black box solver for a more general class of non linear problems, including problems having many local…

We propose a new self-adaptive, double-loop smoothing algorithm to solve composite, nonsmooth, and constrained convex optimization problems. Our algorithm is based on Nesterov's smoothing technique via general Bregman distance functions. It…

We develop two new variants of alternating direction methods of multipliers (ADMM) and two parallel primal-dual decomposition algorithms to solve a wide range class of constrained convex optimization problems. Our approach relies on a novel…

The alternating direction method with multipliers (ADMM) has been one of most powerful and successful methods for solving various convex or nonconvex composite problems that arise in the fields of image & signal processing and machine…

We propose a new stochastic L-BFGS algorithm and prove a linear convergence rate for strongly convex and smooth functions. Our algorithm draws heavily from a recent stochastic variant of L-BFGS proposed in Byrd et al. (2014) as well as a…

In this paper, we consider nonconvex optimization problems with nonsmooth nonconvex objective function and nonlinear equality constraints. We assume that both the objective function and the functional constraints can be separated into 2…

We study the solution of symmetric positive-definite linear systems by way of families of full- and limited-memory methods. Our contributions are threefold. We first derive new relationships between the conjugate-gradient method (CG) and…

Modern 3D image recovery problems require powerful optimization frameworks to handle high dimensionality while providing reliable numerical solutions in a reasonable time. In this perspective, asynchronous parallel optimization algorithms…

We propose a variant of the approximate Bregman proximal gradient (ABPG) algorithm for minimizing the sum of a smooth nonconvex function and a nonsmooth convex function. ABPG is known to converge globally to a stationary point even when the…

The alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is an effective method for solving wide fields of convex problems. At each iteration, the classical ADMM solves two subproblems exactly. However, in many applications, it is expensive…

Although the performance of popular optimization algorithms such as Douglas-Rachford splitting (DRS) and the ADMM is satisfactory in small and well-scaled problems, ill conditioning and problem size pose a severe obstacle to their reliable…

Matrix Factorization is a popular non-convex optimization problem, for which alternating minimization schemes are mostly used. They usually suffer from the major drawback that the solution is biased towards one of the optimization…

The aggregated unfitted finite element method (AgFEM) is a methodology recently introduced in order to address conditioning and stability problems associated with embedded, unfitted, or extended finite element methods. The method is based…

In many modern imaging applications the desire to reconstruct high resolution images, coupled with the abundance of data from acquisition using ultra-fast detectors, have led to new challenges in image reconstruction. A main challenge is…

Memory is a key computational bottleneck when solving large-scale convex optimization problems such as semidefinite programs (SDPs). In this paper, we focus on the regime in which storing an $n\times n$ matrix decision variable is…
