A popular robust alternative of the classic principal component analysis (PCA) is the $\ell_1$-norm PCA (L1-PCA), which aims to find a subspace that captures the most variation in a dataset as measured by the $\ell_1$-norm. L1-PCA has shown…

In this effort we introduce and analyze a novel reduced basis approach, used to construct an approximating subspace for a given set of data. Our technique, which we call the Natural Greedy Algorithm (NGA), is based on a recursive approach…

We propose NAMA (Newton-type Alternating Minimization Algorithm) for solving structured nonsmooth convex optimization problems where the sum of two functions is to be minimized, one being strongly convex and the other composed with a linear…

Sparse principal component analysis (PCA) and sparse canonical correlation analysis (CCA) are two essential techniques from high-dimensional statistics and machine learning for analyzing large-scale data. Both problems can be formulated as…

Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is one of the most important unsupervised methods to handle high-dimensional data. However, due to the high computational complexity of its eigen decomposition solution, it hard to apply PCA to the…

In this paper, we propose the inexact alternating minimization algorithm (inexact AMA), which allows inexact iterations in the algorithm, and its accelerated variant, called the inexact fast alternating minimization algorithm (inexact…

The Alternating Minimization Algorithm (AMA) has been proposed by Tseng to solve convex programming problems with two-block separable linear constraints and objectives, whereby (at least) one of the components of the latter is assumed to be…

Affine projection algorithm (APA) is a well-known algorithm in adaptive filtering applications such as audio echo cancellation. APA relies on three parameters: $P$ (projection order), $\mu$ (step size) and $\delta$ (regularization…

Adaptive algorithms like AdaGrad and AMSGrad are successful in nonconvex optimization owing to their parameter-agnostic ability -- requiring no a priori knowledge about problem-specific parameters nor tuning of learning rates. However, when…

We show that proximal minimization algorithms (PMA), majorization minimization (MM), and alternating minimization (AM) are equivalent. Each type of algorithm leads to a decreasing sequence of objective function. New conditions on PMA are…

The quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) is a variational quantum algorithm, where a quantum computer implements a variational ansatz consisting of $p$ layers of alternating unitary operators and a classical computer is used to…

Proximal gradient algorithms (PGA), while foundational for inverse problems like image reconstruction, often yield unstable convergence and suboptimal solutions by violating the critical non-negativity constraint. We identify the gradient…

In this paper we propose a new iterative algorithm to solve the fair PCA (FPCA) problem. We start with the max-min fair PCA formulation originally proposed in [1] and derive a simple and efficient iterative algorithm which is based on the…

Many applications require recovering a matrix of minimal rank within an affine constraint set, with matrix completion a notable special case. Because the problem is NP-hard in general, it is common to replace the matrix rank with the…

This work proposes a general learned proximal alternating minimization algorithm, LPAM, for solving learnable two-block nonsmooth and nonconvex optimization problems. We tackle the nonsmoothness by an appropriate smoothing technique with…

We investigate the proximal point algorithm (PPA) and its inexact extensions under an error bound condition, which guarantees a global linear convergence if the proximal regularization parameter is larger than the error bound condition…

This work focuses on a class of general decentralized constraint-coupled optimization problems. We propose a novel nested primal-dual gradient algorithm (NPGA), which can achieve linear convergence under the weakest known condition, and its…

The accelerated proximal point algorithm (APPA), also known as "Catalyst", is a well-established reduction from convex optimization to approximate proximal point computation (i.e., regularized minimization). This reduction is conceptually…

We study robust PCA for the fully observed setting, which is about separating a low rank matrix $\boldsymbol{L}$ and a sparse matrix $\boldsymbol{S}$ from their sum $\boldsymbol{D}=\boldsymbol{L}+\boldsymbol{S}$. In this paper, a new…

The Chambolle-Pock algorithm (CPA), also known as the primal-dual hybrid gradient method, has gained popularity over the last decade due to its success in solving large-scale convex structured problems. This work extends its convergence…
