To the best of our knowledge, there are no methods today for training differentially private regression models on sparse input data. To remedy this, we adapt the Frank-Wolfe algorithm for $L_1$ penalized linear regression to be aware of…

Frank-Wolfe algorithms for convex minimization have recently gained considerable attention from the Optimization and Machine Learning communities, as their properties make them a suitable choice in a variety of applications. However, as…

We consider two greedy algorithms for minimizing a convex function in a bounded convex set: an algorithm by Jones [1992] and the Frank-Wolfe (FW) algorithm. We first consider approximate versions of these algorithms. For smooth convex…

In this work, we consider methods for solving large-scale optimization problems with a possibly nonsmooth objective function. The key idea is to first specify a class of optimization algorithms using a generic iterative scheme involving…

Derivative-free optimization (DFO) is vital in solving complex optimization problems where only noisy function evaluations are available through an oracle. Within this domain, DFO via finite difference (FD) approximation has emerged as a…

This work studies and develop projection-free algorithms for online learning with linear optimization oracles (a.k.a. Frank-Wolfe) for handling the constraint set. More precisely, this work (i) provides an improved (optimized) variant of an…

We consider the problem of minimizing a smooth and convex function over the $n$-dimensional spectrahedron -- the set of real symmetric $n\times n$ positive semidefinite matrices with unit trace, which underlies numerous applications in…

We consider stochastic unconstrained bilevel optimization problems when only the first-order gradient oracles are available. While numerous optimization methods have been proposed for tackling bilevel problems, existing methods either tend…

In this paper, we present the Stochastic Origin Frank-Wolfe (SOFW) method, which is a special case of the block-coordinate Frank-Wolfe algorithm, applied to the problem of finding equilibrium flow distributions. By significantly reducing…

Recently, several works have shown that natural modifications of the classical conditional gradient method (aka Frank-Wolfe algorithm) for constrained convex optimization, provably converge with a linear rate when: i) the feasible set is a…

We present and analyze an away-step Frank-Wolfe method for the convex optimization problem ${\min}_{x\in\mathcal{X}} \; f(\mathsf{A} x) + \langle{c},{x}\rangle$, where $f$ is a $\theta$-logarithmically-homogeneous self-concordant barrier,…

We introduce a few variants on Frank-Wolfe style algorithms suitable for large scale optimization. We show how to modify the standard Frank-Wolfe algorithm using stochastic gradients, approximate subproblem solutions, and sketched decision…

In this paper, we consider conditional gradient methods. These are methods that use a linear minimization oracle, which, for a given vector $p \in \mathbb{R}^n$, computes the solution of the subproblem $$\arg \min_{x\in X}{\langle p,x…

In this paper, we propose a new Hessian inverse free Fully Single Loop Algorithm (FSLA) for bilevel optimization problems. Classic algorithms for bilevel optimization admit a double loop structure which is computationally expensive.…

The Frank Wolfe algorithm (FW) is a popular projection-free alternative for solving large-scale constrained optimization problems. However, the FW algorithm suffers from a sublinear convergence rate when minimizing a smooth convex function…

This paper considers a bilevel program, which has many applications in practice. To develop effective numerical algorithms, it is generally necessary to transform the bilevel program into a single-level optimization problem. The most…

Similarity and metric learning provides a principled approach to construct a task-specific similarity from weakly supervised data. However, these methods are subject to the curse of dimensionality: as the number of features grows large,…
