Stochastic variance reduction algorithms have recently become popular for minimizing the average of a large, but finite, number of loss functions. In this paper, we propose a novel Riemannian extension of the Euclidean stochastic variance…

Random projection algorithm is an iterative gradient method with random projections. Such an algorithm is of interest for constrained optimization when the constraint set is not known in advance or the projection operation on the whole…

In this paper, we propose Riemannian conditional gradient methods for minimizing composite functions, i.e., those that can be expressed as the sum of a smooth function and a retraction-based convex function. We analyze the convergence of…

We develop a novel randomized conjugate gradient least squares (RCGLS) method for solving least-squares problems, in which iterative sketching is employed at each step to reduce the dimension and hence the computational cost. In particular,…

The nonlinear conjugate gradient methods are known to be an effective approach for standard unconstrained optimization problems especially for large-scale problems. This paper proposes a proximal nonlinear conjugate gradient method, which…

In this work, we study a novel class of projection-based algorithms for linearly constrained problems (LCPs) which have a lot of applications in statistics, optimization, and machine learning. Conventional primal gradient-based methods for…

We propose a general scheme for solving convex and non-convex optimization problems on manifolds. The central idea is that, by adding a multiple of the squared retraction distance to the objective function in question, we "convexify" the…

We propose a gradient-based method for quadratic programming problems with a single linear constraint and bounds on the variables. Inspired by the GPCG algorithm for bound-constrained convex quadratic programming [J.J. Mor\'e and G.…

We present a subgradient method for minimizing non-smooth, non-Lipschitz convex optimization problems. The only structure assumed is that a strictly feasible point is known. We extend the work of Renegar [5] by taking a different…

We consider a generic decentralized constrained optimization problem over static, directed communication networks, where each agent has exclusive access to only one convex, differentiable, local objective term and one convex constraint set.…

We consider the projected gradient algorithm for the nonconvex best subset selection problem that minimizes a given empirical loss function under an $\ell_0$-norm constraint. Through decomposing the feasible set of the given sparsity…

We consider a class of nonsmooth optimization problems over the Stiefel manifold, in which the objective function is weakly convex in the ambient Euclidean space. Such problems are ubiquitous in engineering applications but still largely…

Optimization algorithms are pivotal in advancing various scientific and industrial fields but often encounter obstacles such as trapping in local minima, saddle points, and plateaus (flat regions), which makes the convergence to reasonable…

In this paper, a globally convergent Newton-type proximal gradient method is developed for composite multi-objective optimization problems where each objective function can be represented as the sum of a smooth function and a nonsmooth…

We propose a descent subgradient algorithm for unconstrained nonsmooth nonconvex multiobjective optimization problems. To find a descent direction, we present an iterative process that efficiently approximates the Goldstein subdifferential…

The incremental aggregated gradient algorithm is popular in network optimization and machine learning research. However, the current convergence results require the objective function to be strongly convex. And the existing convergence…

This paper considers the analysis of continuous time gradient-based optimization algorithms through the lens of nonlinear contraction theory. It demonstrates that in the case of a time-invariant objective, most elementary results on…

We propose a new family of subgradient- and gradient-based methods which converges with optimal complexity for convex optimization problems whose feasible region is simple enough. This includes cases where the objective function is…

Semi-supervised clustering problems focus on clustering data with labels. In this paper,we consider the semi-supervised hypergraph problems. We use the hypergraph related tensor to construct an orthogonal constrained optimization model. The…

In this paper, we explore two fundamental first-order algorithms in convex optimization, namely, gradient descent (GD) and proximal gradient method (ProxGD). Our focus is on making these algorithms entirely adaptive by leveraging local…
