In this paper we study the convex-concave saddle-point problem $\min_x \max_y f(x) + y^T \mathbf{A} x - g(y)$, where $f(x)$ and $g(y)$ are smooth and convex functions. We propose an Accelerated Primal-Dual Gradient Method (APDG) for solving…

The primary goal of this paper is to provide an efficient solution algorithm based on the augmented Lagrangian framework for optimization problems with a stochastic objective function and deterministic constraints. Our main contribution is…

In this paper, we consider the minimization of a nonsmooth nonconvex objective function $f(x)$ over a closed convex subset $\mathcal{X}$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, with additional nonsmooth nonconvex constraints $c(x) = 0$. We develop a unified…

We present a so-called universal convergence theorem for inexact primal-dual penalty and augmented Lagrangian methods that can be applied to a large number of such methods and reduces their convergence analysis to verification of some…

In a real Hilbert space setting, we reconsider the classical Arrow-Hurwicz differential system in view of solving linearly constrained convex minimization problems. We investigate the asymptotic properties of the differential system and…

In this paper, we consider a nonsmooth convex finite-sum problem with a conic constraint. To overcome the challenge of projecting onto the constraint set and computing the full (sub)gradient, we introduce a primal-dual incremental gradient…

This paper proposes an adaptive primal-dual dynamics for distributed optimization in multi-agent systems. The proposed dynamics incorporates an adaptive synchronization law that reinforces the interconnection strength between the primal…

In this paper, we study a class of non-convex optimization problems known as multi-affine quadratic equality constrained problems, which appear in various applications--from generating feasible force trajectories in robotic locomotion and…

We study a class of optimization problems in which the objective function is given by the sum of a differentiable but possibly nonconvex component and a nondifferentiable convex regularization term. We introduce an auxiliary variable to…

In this paper we propose a class of randomized primal-dual methods to contend with large-scale saddle point problems defined by a convex-concave function $\mathcal{L}(\mathbf{x},y)\triangleq\sum_{i=1}^m f_i(x_i)+\Phi(\mathbf{x},y)-h(y)$. We…

The augmented Lagrangian (AL) method provides a flexible and efficient framework for solving extended-space full-waveform inversion (FWI), a constrained nonlinear optimization problem whereby we seek model parameters and wavefields that…

We study a stochastic first order primal-dual method for solving convex-concave saddle point problems over real reflexive Banach spaces using Bregman divergences and relative smoothness assumptions, in which we allow for stochastic error in…

This technical note considers a distributed convex optimization problem with nonsmooth cost functions and coupled nonlinear inequality constraints. To solve the problem, we first propose a modified Lagrangian function containing local…

We study the convergence rates of the classical Lagrangian-based methods and their variants for solving convex optimization problems with equality constraints. We present a generalized prediction-correction framework to establish $O(1/K^2)$…

In this paper we propose a primal-dual dynamical approach to the minimization of a structured convex function consisting of a smooth term, a nonsmooth term, and the composition of another nonsmooth term with a linear continuous operator. In…

This paper proposes a novel approach to solving nonlinear programming problems using a sharp augmented Lagrangian method with a smoothing technique. Traditional sharp augmented Lagrangian methods are known for their effectiveness but are…

This paper proposes a novel first-order algorithm that solves composite nonsmooth and stochastic convex optimization problem with function constraints. Most of the works in the literature provide convergence rate guarantees on the…

An augmented Lagrangian (AL) can convert a constrained optimization problem into a sequence of simpler (e.g., unconstrained) problems, which are then usually solved with local solvers. Recently, surrogate-based Bayesian optimization (BO)…

We show that a common Lyapunov matrix exists for the convex combination of two Hurwitz matrices if and only if the intersection of the set of strict Lyapunov matrices for one matrix and the set of non-strict Lyapunov matrices for the other…

Variable selection is one of the most important tasks in statistics and machine learning. To incorporate more prior information about the regression coefficients, the constrained Lasso model has been proposed in the literature. In this…
