The class of nonsmooth codifferentiable functions was introduced by professor V.F.~Demyanov in the late 1980s. He also proposed a method for minimizing these functions called the method of codifferential descent (MCD). However, until now…

The Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence plays a central role in probabilistic machine learning, where it commonly serves as the canonical loss function. Optimization in such settings is often performed over the probability simplex, where the…

In this paper, we propose a multi-step inertial Forward--Backward splitting algorithm for minimizing the sum of two non-necessarily convex functions, one of which is proper lower semi-continuous while the other is differentiable with a…

Nonmonotone gradient methods generally perform better than their monotone counterparts especially on unconstrained quadratic optimization. However, the known convergence rate of the monotone method is often much better than its nonmonotone…

This paper is devoted to a detailed convergence analysis of the method of codifferential descent (MCD) developed by professor V.F. Demyanov for solving a large class of nonsmooth nonconvex optimization problems. We propose a generalization…

This paper presents a novel stabilized nonconforming finite element method for solving the surface biharmonic problem. The method extends the New-Zienkiewicz-type (NZT) element to polyhedral (approximated) surfaces by employing the Piola…

In this paper, we propose first-order feasible methods for difference-of-convex (DC) programs with smooth inequality and simple geometric constraints. Our strategy for maintaining feasibility of the iterates is based on a "retraction" idea…

In this work we propose a general nonmonotone line-search method for nonconvex multi\-objective optimization problems with convex constraints. At the $k$th iteration, the degree of nonmonotonicity is controlled by a vector $\nu_{k}$ with…

We consider minimization problems with the well-known Polya-Lojasievich condition and Lipshitz-continuous gradient. Such problem occurs in different places in machine learning and related fields. Furthermore, we assume that a gradient is…

Motivated by the recent successes of neural networks that have the ability to fit the data perfectly and generalize well, we study the noiseless model in the fundamental least-squares setup. We assume that an optimum predictor fits…

We propose a novel trust region method for solving a class of nonsmooth, nonconvex composite-type optimization problems. The approach embeds inexact semismooth Newton steps for finding zeros of a normal map-based stationarity measure for…

The analysis of projection-free first order methods is often complicated by the presence of different kinds of "good" and "bad" steps. In this article, we propose a unifying framework for projection-free methods, aiming to simplify the…

We pose the problem of approximating optimally a given nonnegative signal with the scalar autoconvolution of a nonnegative signal. The I-divergence is chosen as the optimality criterion being well suited to incorporate nonnegativity…

Higher-order tensor methods were recently proposed for minimizing smooth convex and nonconvex functions. Higher-order algorithms accelerate the convergence of the classical first-order methods thanks to the higher-order derivatives used in…

In this paper, we study the splitting method based on alternating direction method of multipliers for support vector machine in reproducing kernel Hilbert space with lower semi-continuous loss function. If the loss function is lower…

We investigate the asymptotic properties of the trajectories generated by a second-order dynamical system of proximal-gradient type stated in connection with the minimization of the sum of a nonsmooth convex and a (possibly nonconvex)…

In this work, we analyze the convergence of Polyak's heavy ball method in both continuous and discrete time for non-convex $C^4$-objective functions satisfying the Polyak-Lojasiewicz inequality. Under this weak assumption, we recover the…

Proximal gradient methods are a popular tool for the solution of structured, nonsmooth minimization problems. In this work, we investigate an extension of the former to general Banach spaces and provide worst-case convergence rates for,…

This paper focuses on the quadratic optimization over two classes of nonnegative zero-norm constraints: nonnegative zero-norm sphere constraint and zero-norm simplex constraint, which have important applications in nonnegative sparse…

Theoretical estimates of the convergence rate of many well-known gradient-type optimization methods are based on quadratic interpolation, provided that the Lipschitz condition for the gradient is satisfied. In this article we obtain a…
