We show that the iterates generated by a generic first-order meta-algorithm satisfy a canonical perturbed Fenchel duality inequality. The latter in turn readily yields a unified derivation of the best known convergence rates for various…

We provide an overview of primal-dual algorithms for nonsmooth and non-convex-concave saddle-point problems. This flows around a new analysis of such methods, using Bregman divergences to formulate simplified conditions for convergence.

In this paper we investigate the convergence of a recently popular class of first-order primal-dual algorithms for saddle point problems under the presence of errors occurring in the proximal maps and gradients. We study several types of…

This paper studies the primal-dual convergence and iteration-complexity of proximal bundle methods for solving nonsmooth problems with convex structures. More specifically, we develop a family of primal-dual proximal bundle methods for…

We study acceleration and preconditioning strategies for a class of Douglas-Rachford methods aiming at the solution of convex-concave saddle-point problems associated with Fenchel-Rockafellar duality. While the basic iteration converges…

This paper derives a discrete dual problem for a prototypical hybrid high-order method for convex minimization problems. The discrete primal and dual problem satisfy a weak convex duality that leads to a priori error estimates with…

Very few methods for hybrid federated learning, where clients only hold subsets of both features and samples, exist. Yet, this scenario is extremely important in practical settings. We provide a fast, robust algorithm for hybrid federated…

Using an optimization algorithm to solve a machine learning problem is one of mainstreams in the field of science. In this work, we demonstrate a comprehensive comparison of some state-of-the-art first-order optimization algorithms for…

We present a general technique for the analysis of first-order methods. The technique relies on the construction of a duality gap for an appropriate approximation of the objective function, where the function approximation improves as the…

First-order methods for solving convex optimization problems have been at the forefront of mathematical optimization in the last 20 years. The rapid development of this important class of algorithms is motivated by the success stories…

We study convex-concave saddle point problems with bilinear coupling, covering linearly constrained convex optimization and more general nonsmooth or constrained models via a proximable term in the dual objective. In linearly convergent…

In this paper, we propose an inertial accelerated primal-dual method for the linear equality constrained convex optimization problem. When the objective function has a ``nonsmooth + smooth'' composite structure, we further propose an…

We investigate the convergence properties of a stochastic primal-dual splitting algorithm for solving structured monotone inclusions involving the sum of a cocoercive operator and a composite monotone operator. The proposed method is the…

In this paper, we propose a primal-dual algorithm with a novel momentum term using the partial gradients of the coupling function that can be viewed as a generalization of the method proposed by Chambolle and Pock in 2016 to solve saddle…

In this paper we present two Fenchel-type dual problems for a DC (difference of convex functions) optimization primal one. They have been built by means of the c-conjugation scheme, a pattern of conjugation which has been shown to be…

We propose a modified primal-dual method for general convex optimization problems with changing constraints. We obtain properties of Lagrangian saddle points for these problems which enable us to establish convergence of the proposed…

We study preconditioned proximal point methods for a class of saddle point problems, where the preconditioner decouples the overall proximal point method into an alternating primal--dual method. This is akin to the Chambolle--Pock method or…

This paper is devoted to the design of efficient primal-dual algorithm (PDA) for solving convex optimization problems with known saddle-point structure. We present a new PDA with larger acceptable range of parameters and correction, which…

In this paper we consider a class of optimization problems with a strongly convex objective function and the feasible set given by an intersection of a simple convex set with a set given by a number of linear equality and inequality…

The paper proposes a linesearch for a primal-dual method. Each iteration of the linesearch requires to update only the dual (or primal) variable. For many problems, in particular for regularized least squares, the linesearch does not…
