A block decomposition method is proposed for minimizing a (possibly non-convex) continuously differentiable function subject to one linear equality constraint and simple bounds on the variables. The proposed method iteratively selects a…
Higher-order tensor methods were recently proposed for minimizing smooth convex and nonconvex functions. Higher-order algorithms accelerate the convergence of the classical first-order methods thanks to the higher-order derivatives used in…
Alternating projection method has been used in a wide range of engineering applications since it is a gradient-free method (without requiring tuning the step size) and usually has fast speed of convergence. In this paper, we formalize two…
We propose a generic framework based on a new stochastic variance-reduced gradient descent algorithm for accelerating nonconvex low-rank matrix recovery. Starting from an appropriate initial estimator, our proposed algorithm performs…
In this paper we present an inexact zeroth-order method suitable for the solution nonsmooth and nonconvex stochastic composite optimization problems, in which the objective is split into a real-valued Lipschitz continuous stochastic…
We consider the extragradient method to minimize the sum of two functions, the first one being smooth and the second being convex. Under the Kurdyka-Lojasiewicz assumption, we prove that the sequence produced by the extragradient method…
In this paper, we propose a successive pseudo-convex approximation algorithm to efficiently compute stationary points for a large class of possibly nonconvex optimization problems. The stationary points are obtained by solving a sequence of…
We consider an inertial primal-dual fixed point algorithm (IPDFP) to compute the minimizations of the following Problem (1.1). This is a full splitting approach, in the sense that the nonsmooth functions are processed individually via their…
This paper concerns the minimization of the composition of a nonsmooth convex function and a $\mathcal{C}^{1,1}$ mapping $F$ over a $\mathcal{C}^2$-smooth embedded closed submanifold $\mathcal{M}$. For this class of nonconvex and nonsmooth…
We present a primal-dual algorithmic framework to obtain approximate solutions to a prototypical constrained convex optimization problem, and rigorously characterize how common structural assumptions affect the numerical efficiency. Our…
In this paper some adaptive mirror descent algorithms for problems of minimization convex objective functional with several convex Lipschitz (generally, non-smooth) functional constraints are considered. It is shown that the methods are…
We propose a unified framework for estimating low-rank matrices through nonconvex optimization based on gradient descent algorithm. Our framework is quite general and can be applied to both noisy and noiseless observations. In the general…
In recent years, numerous vision and learning tasks have been (re)formulated as nonconvex and nonsmooth programmings(NNPs). Although some algorithms have been proposed for particular problems, designing fast and flexible optimization…
Built upon previous work of the authors in (Deckelnick, Herbert, and Hinze, ESAIM: COCV 28 (2022)), we present a general shape optimisation framework based on the method of mappings in the $W^{1,\infty}$ topology together with a suitable…
Semi-Infinite Programming (SIP) has emerged as a powerful framework for modeling problems with infinite constraints, however, its theoretical development in the context of nonconvex and large-scale optimization remains limited. In this…
This paper develops and analyzes an accelerated proximal descent method for finding stationary points of nonconvex composite optimization problems. The objective function is of the form $f+h$ where $h$ is a proper closed convex function,…
The asymptotic analysis of a generic stochastic optimization algorithm mainly relies on the establishment of a specific descent condition. While the convexity assumption allows for technical shortcuts and generally leads to strict…
This paper considers the robust phase retrieval problem, which can be cast as a nonsmooth and nonconvex optimization problem. We propose a new inexact proximal linear algorithm with the subproblem being solved inexactly. Our contributions…
This paper develops a comprehensive convergence analysis for generic classes of descent algorithms in nonsmooth and nonconvex optimization under several conditions of the Polyak-\L ojasiewicz-Kurdyka (PLK) type. Along other results, we…
This paper analyzes block-coordinate proximal gradient methods for minimizing the sum of a separable smooth function and a (nonseparable) nonsmooth function, both of which are allowed to be nonconvex. The main tool in our analysis is the…
