Composite convex optimization models arise in several applications, and are especially prevalent in inverse problems with a sparsity inducing norm and in general convex optimization with simple constraints. The most widely used algorithms…

We study learning properties of accelerated gradient descent methods for linear least-squares in Hilbert spaces. We analyze the implicit regularization properties of Nesterov acceleration and a variant of heavy-ball in terms of…

This paper studies the commonly utilized windowed Anderson acceleration (AA) algorithm for fixed-point methods, $x^{(k+1)}=q(x^{(k)})$. It provides the first proof that when the operator $q$ is linear and symmetric the windowed AA, which…

Optimization algorithms for solving nonconvex inverse problem have attracted significant interests recently. However, existing methods require the nonconvex regularization to be smooth or simple to ensure convergence. In this paper, we…

This paper presents a sufficient condition for stochastic gradients not to slow down the convergence of Nesterov's accelerated gradient method. The new condition has the strong-growth condition by Schmidt \& Roux as a special case, and it…

BoostConv has been introduced in earlier works as an effective acceleration technique for nonlinear iterative processes and has been successfully employed in a variety of applications to enhance convergence rates or to compute unstable…

We prove new convergence rates for a generalized version of stochastic Nesterov acceleration under interpolation conditions. Unlike previous analyses, our approach accelerates any stochastic gradient method which makes sufficient progress…

We formulate an affine invariant implementation of the accelerated first-order algorithm in Nesterov (1983). Its complexity bound is proportional to an affine invariant regularity constant defined with respect to the Minkowski gauge of the…

We introduce fast algorithms for solving $\ell_{p}$ regression problems using the iteratively reweighted least squares (IRLS) method. Our approach achieves state-of-the-art iteration complexity, outperforming the IRLS algorithm by…

We present a unifying framework for adapting the update direction in gradient-based iterative optimization methods. As natural special cases we re-derive classical momentum and Nesterov's accelerated gradient method, lending a new intuitive…

A novel method which is called the Chebyshev inertial iteration for accelerating the convergence speed of fixed-point iterations is presented. The Chebyshev inertial iteration can be regarded as a valiant of the successive over relaxation…

Iterative Closest Point (ICP) is a widely used method for performing scan-matching and registration. Being simple and robust method, it is still computationally expensive and may be challenging to use in real-time applications with limited…

In inverse reinforcement learning (IRL), a learning agent infers a reward function encoding the underlying task using demonstrations from experts. However, many existing IRL techniques make the often unrealistic assumption that the agent…

We propose an adaptive accelerated smoothing technique for a nonsmooth convex optimization problem where the smoothing update rule is coupled with the momentum parameter. We also extend the setting to the case where the objective function…

In this paper, we develop a unified framework able to certify both exponential and subexponential convergence rates for a wide range of iterative first-order optimization algorithms. To this end, we construct a family of parameter-dependent…

We introduce a new weighted averaging scheme using "Fenchel-type" operators to recover primal solutions in the alternating minimization-type algorithm (AMA) for prototype constrained convex optimization. Our approach combines the classical…

Inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) is the problem of finding a reward function that generates a given optimal policy for a given Markov Decision Process. This paper looks at an algorithmic-independent geometric analysis of the IRL problem…

In this paper we propose a unified two-phase scheme for convex optimization to accelerate: (1) the adaptive cubic regularization methods with exact/inexact Hessian matrices, and (2) the adaptive gradient method, without any knowledge of the…
