We introduce SPIRAL, a SuPerlinearly convergent Incremental pRoximal ALgorithm, for solving nonconvex regularized finite sum problems under a relative smoothness assumption. Each iteration of SPIRAL consists of an inner and an outer loop.…
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 sine-cosine algorithm (SCA) is a new population-based meta-heuristic algorithm. In addition to exploiting sine and cosine functions to perform local and global searches (hence the name sine-cosine), the SCA introduces several random and…
The convergence behaviour of first-order methods can be severely slowed down when applied to high-dimensional non-convex functions due to the presence of saddle points. If, additionally, the saddles are surrounded by large plateaus, it is…
We optimize the running time of the primal-dual algorithms by optimizing their stopping criteria for solving convex optimization problems under affine equality constraints, which means terminating the algorithm earlier with fewer…
We present a coordinate ascent method for a class of semidefinite programming problems that arise in non-convex quadratic integer optimization. These semidefinite programs are characterized by a small total number of active constraints and…
The linear primal-dual hybrid gradient (PDHG) method is a first-order method that splits convex optimization problems with saddle-point structure into smaller subproblems. Unlike those obtained in most splitting methods, these subproblems…
The fast iterative soft thresholding algorithm (FISTA) is used to solve convex regularized optimization problems in machine learning. Distributed implementations of the algorithm have become popular since they enable the analysis of large…
We propose an early termination technique for mixed integer conic programming for use within branch-and-bound based solvers. Our approach generalizes previous early termination results for ADMM-based solvers to a broader class of…
We study the bilinearly coupled minimax problem: $\min_{x} \max_{y} f(x) + y^\top A x - h(y)$, where $f$ and $h$ are both strongly convex smooth functions and admit first-order gradient oracles. Surprisingly, no known first-order algorithms…
In recent years, bilevel approaches have become very popular to efficiently estimate high-dimensional hyperparameters of machine learning models. However, to date, binary parameters are handled by continuous relaxation and rounding…
Best subset selection is considered the `gold standard' for many sparse learning problems. A variety of optimization techniques have been proposed to attack this non-smooth non-convex problem. In this paper, we investigate the dual forms of…
This paper presents a hybrid CPU-GPU framework for solving combinatorial scheduling problems formulated as Integer Linear Programming (ILP). While scheduling underpins many optimization tasks in computing systems, solving these problems…
In arXiv:2305.03945 [math.NA], a first-order optimization algorithm has been introduced to solve time-implicit schemes of reaction-diffusion equations. In this research, we conduct theoretical studies on this first-order algorithm equipped…
In this paper we propose a stochastic primal dual fixed point method (SPDFP) for solving the sum of two proper lower semi-continuous convex function and one of which is composite. The method is based on the primal dual fixed point method…
In this article, we establish a class of new accelerated modulus-based iteration methods for solving the linear complementarity problem. When the system matrix is an $H_+$-matrix, we present appropriate criteria for the convergence…
Many real-world optimisation problems involve multiple objectives. When considered concurrently, they give rise to a set of optimal trade-off solutions, also known as efficient solutions. These solutions have the property that neither…
This work presents a universal accelerated first-order primal-dual method for affinely constrained convex optimization problems. It can handle both Lipschitz and H\"{o}lder gradients but does not need to know the smoothness level of the…
Previous studies on stochastic primal-dual algorithms for solving min-max problems with faster convergence heavily rely on the bilinear structure of the problem, which restricts their applicability to a narrowed range of problems. The main…
In Software Product Lines (SPLs) it may be difficult or even impossible to test all the products of the family because of the large number of valid feature combinations that may exist. Thus, we want to find a minimal subset of the product…
