Large-scale saddle-point problems arise in such machine learning tasks as GANs and linear models with affine constraints. In this paper, we study distributed saddle-point problems (SPP) with strongly-convex-strongly-concave smooth…

The Set Cover problem (SCP) and Set Packing problem (SPP) are standard NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems. Their decision problem versions are shown to be NP-Complete in Karp's 1972 paper. We specify a rough guide to constructing…

In this article, we derive an iterative scheme through a quasi-Newton technique to capture robust weakly efficient points of uncertain multiobjective optimization problems under the upper set less relation. It is assumed that the set of…

We extend the Frank-Wolfe (FW) optimization algorithm to solve constrained smooth convex-concave saddle point (SP) problems. Remarkably, the method only requires access to linear minimization oracles. Leveraging recent advances in FW…

The smoothly clipped absolute deviation (SCAD) and the minimax concave penalty (MCP) penalized regression models are two important and widely used nonconvex sparse learning tools that can handle variable selection and parameter estimation…

Greedy Sampling Methods (GSMs) are widely used to construct approximate solutions of Configuration Optimization Problems (COPs), where a loss functional is minimized over finite configurations of points in a compact domain. While effective…

Saddle point problems, ubiquitous in optimization, extend beyond game theory to diverse domains like power networks and reinforcement learning. This paper presents novel approaches to tackle saddle point problem, with a focus on…

We consider convex-concave saddle point problems with a separable structure and non-strongly convex functions. We propose an efficient stochastic block coordinate descent method using adaptive primal-dual updates, which enables flexible…

In this work, we consider the low rank decomposition (SDPR) of general convex semidefinite programming problems (SDP) that contain both a positive semidefinite matrix and a nonnegative vector as variables. We develop a rank-support-adaptive…

Quasi-Newton algorithms are among the most popular iterative methods for solving unconstrained minimization problems, largely due to their favorable superlinear convergence property. However, existing results for these algorithms are…

In this paper, we study structured quasi-Newton methods for optimization problems with orthogonality constraints. Note that the Riemannian Hessian of the objective function requires both the Euclidean Hessian and the Euclidean gradient. In…

In this paper, we propose GT-GDA, a distributed optimization method to solve saddle point problems of the form: $\min_{\mathbf{x}} \max_{\mathbf{y}} \{F(\mathbf{x},\mathbf{y}) :=G(\mathbf{x}) + \langle \mathbf{y}, \overline{P} \mathbf{x}…

Classical convergence analyses for optimization algorithms rely on the widely-adopted uniform smoothness assumption. However, recent experimental studies have demonstrated that many machine learning problems exhibit non-uniform smoothness,…

In recent years, various subspace algorithms have been developed to handle large-scale optimization problems. Although existing subspace Newton methods require fewer iterations to converge in practice, the matrix operations and full…

We investigate quasi-Newton methods for minimizing a strictly convex quadratic function which is subject to errors in the evaluation of the gradients. The methods all give identical behavior in exact arithmetic, generating minimizers of…

In this paper, we propose an accelerated quasi-Newton proximal extragradient (A-QPNE) method for solving unconstrained smooth convex optimization problems. With access only to the gradients of the objective, we prove that our method can…

Semidefinite programs (SDPs) are powerful theoretical tools that have been studied for over two decades, but their practical use remains limited due to computational difficulties in solving large-scale, realistic-sized problems. In this…

In this work, we consider solving optimization problems with a stochastic objective and deterministic equality constraints. We propose a Trust-Region Sequential Quadratic Programming method to find both first- and second-order stationary…

MAXCUT defines a classical NP-hard problem for graph partitioning and it serves as a typical case of the symmetric non-monotone Unconstrained Submodular Maximization (USM) problem. Applications of MAXCUT are abundant in machine learning,…

In this paper, based a novel primal-dual dynamical model with adaptive scaling parameters and Bregman divergences, we propose new accelerated primal-dual proximal gradient splitting methods for solving bilinear saddle-point problems with…
