In this paper we present a variant of the proximal forward-backward splitting iteration for solving nonsmooth optimization problems in Hilbert spaces, when the objective function is the sum of two nondifferentiable convex functions. The…

Over the past decade, stochastic algorithms have emerged as scalable and efficient tools for solving large-scale ill-posed inverse problems by randomly selecting subsets of equations at each iteration. However, due to the ill-posedness and…

In this paper, we propose the Bi-Sub-Gradient (Bi-SG) method, which is a generalization of the classical sub-gradient method to the setting of convex bi-level optimization problems. This is a first-order method that is very easy to…

Conditional gradient methods have attracted much attention in both machine learning and optimization communities recently. These simple methods can guarantee the generation of sparse solutions. In addition, without the computation of full…

Previous studies in blind super-resolution (BSR) have primarily concentrated on estimating degradation kernels directly from low-resolution (LR) inputs to enhance super-resolution. However, these degradation kernels, which model the…

The relaxation in the calculus of variation motivates the numerical analysis of a class of degenerate convex minimization problems with non-strictly convex energy densities with some convexity control and two-sided $p$-growth. The…

We analyze stochastic conditional gradient methods for constrained optimization problems arising in over-parametrized machine learning. We show that one could leverage the interpolation-like conditions satisfied by such models to obtain…

In this paper, we propose a StochAstic Recursive grAdient algoritHm (SARAH), as well as its practical variant SARAH+, as a novel approach to the finite-sum minimization problems. Different from the vanilla SGD and other modern stochastic…

Many problems in data science can be treated as estimating a low-rank matrix from highly incomplete, sometimes even corrupted, observations. One popular approach is to resort to matrix factorization, where the low-rank matrix factors are…

Bilevel optimization, a hierarchical optimization paradigm, has gained significant attention in a wide range of practical applications, notably in the fine-tuning of generative models. However, due to the nested problem structure, most…

In this paper, we combine the positive aspects of the Gradient Sampling (GS) and bundle methods, as the most efficient methods in nonsmooth optimization, to develop a robust method for solving unconstrained nonsmooth convex optimization…

We consider unconstrained minimization of smooth convex functions. We propose a novel variational perspective using forced Euler-Lagrange equation that allows for studying high-resolution ODEs. Through this, we obtain a faster convergence…

In this paper, we tackle the problem of blind image super-resolution(SR) with a reformulated degradation model and two novel modules. Following the common practices of blind SR, our method proposes to improve both the kernel estimation as…

We present the Multilevel Bregman Proximal Gradient Descent (ML BPGD) method, a novel multilevel optimization framework tailored to constrained convex problems with relative Lipschitz smoothness. Our approach extends the classical…

We address the problem of simultaneously recovering a sequence of point source signals from observations limited to the low-frequency end of the spectrum of their summed convolution, where the point spread functions (PSFs) are unknown. By…

In this paper, we propose an optimally structured gradient coding scheme to mitigate the straggler problem in distributed learning. Conventional gradient coding methods often assume homogeneous straggler models or rely on excessive data…

Nonsmooth sparsity constrained optimization encompasses a broad spectrum of applications in machine learning. This problem is generally non-convex and NP-hard. Existing solutions to this problem exhibit several notable limitations,…

The singular value decomposition (SVD) of a matrix is a powerful tool for many matrix computation problems. In this paper, we consider generalizing the standard SVD to analyze and compute the regularized solution of linear ill-posed…

We propose and analyze several stochastic gradient algorithms for finding stationary points or local minimum in nonconvex, possibly with nonsmooth regularizer, finite-sum and online optimization problems. First, we propose a simple proximal…

The lack of an efficient preamble detection algorithm remains a challenge for solving preamble collision problems in intelligent random access (RA) in the cellular Internet of Things (IoT). To address this problem, we present an early…
