Nonlinear acceleration algorithms improve the performance of iterative methods, such as gradient descent, using the information contained in past iterates. However, their efficiency is still not entirely understood even in the quadratic…

Quasi-Newton methods are widely used for solving convex optimization problems due to their ease of implementation, practical efficiency, and strong local convergence guarantees. However, their global convergence is typically established…

Non-asymptotic analysis of quasi-Newton methods have gained traction recently. In particular, several works have established a non-asymptotic superlinear rate of $\mathcal{O}((1/\sqrt{t})^t)$ for the (classic) BFGS method by exploiting the…

In [19], a general, inexact, efficient proximal quasi-Newton algorithm for composite optimization problems has been proposed and a sublinear global convergence rate has been established. In this paper, we analyze the convergence properties…

Quasi-Newton algorithms are among the most popular iterative methods for solving unconstrained minimization problems, largely due to their favorable superlinear convergence property. However, existing results for these algorithms are…

We study the local convergence of classical quasi-Newton methods for nonlinear optimization. Although it was well established a long time ago that asymptotically these methods converge superlinearly, the corresponding rates of convergence…

In this paper, we propose the first Quasi-Newton method with a global convergence rate of $O(k^{-1})$ for general convex functions. Quasi-Newton methods, such as BFGS, SR-1, are well-known for their impressive practical performance.…

In this paper, we propose a novel Anderson's acceleration method to solve nonlinear equations, which does \emph{not} require a restart strategy to achieve numerical stability. We propose the greedy and random versions of our algorithm.…

Many computer graphics problems require computing geometric shapes subject to certain constraints. This often results in non-linear and non-convex optimization problems with globally coupled variables, which pose great challenge for…

We consider the finite-sum optimization problem, where each component function is strongly convex and has Lipschitz continuous gradient and Hessian. The recently proposed incremental quasi-Newton method is based on BFGS update and achieves…

Optimization is important in machine learning problems, and quasi-Newton methods have a reputation as the most efficient numerical schemes for smooth unconstrained optimization. In this paper, we consider the explicit superlinear…

In this paper, we propose two regularized proximal quasi-Newton methods with symmetric rank-1 update of the metric (SR1 quasi-Newton) to solve non-smooth convex additive composite problems. Both algorithms avoid using line search or other…

In this paper, we present a generic framework to extend existing uniformly optimal convex programming algorithms to solve more general nonlinear, possibly nonconvex, optimization problems. The basic idea is to incorporate a local search…

Newton's method is the most widespread high-order method, demanding the gradient and the Hessian of the objective function. However, one of the main disadvantages of Newtons method is its lack of global convergence and high iteration cost.…

We consider the use of a curvature-adaptive step size in gradient-based iterative methods, including quasi-Newton methods, for minimizing self-concordant functions, extending an approach first proposed for Newton's method by Nesterov. This…

Anderson acceleration (or Anderson mixing) is an efficient acceleration method for fixed point iterations $x_{t+1}=G(x_t)$, e.g., gradient descent can be viewed as iteratively applying the operation $G(x) \triangleq x-\alpha\nabla f(x)$. It…

In this paper we develop convergence and acceleration theory for Anderson acceleration applied to Newton's method for nonlinear systems in which the Jacobian is singular at a solution. For these problems, the standard Newton algorithm…

Though quasi-Newton methods have been extensively studied in the literature, they either suffer from local convergence or use a series of line searches for global convergence which is not acceptable in the distributed setting. In this work,…

In this paper, we propose new methods to efficiently solve convex optimization problems encountered in sparse estimation, which include a new quasi-Newton method that avoids computing the Hessian matrix and improves efficiency, and we prove…

We extend the well-known BFGS quasi-Newton method and its memory-limited variant LBFGS to the optimization of nonsmooth convex objectives. This is done in a rigorous fashion by generalizing three components of BFGS to subdifferentials: the…
