We study projection-free methods for constrained Riemannian optimization. In particular, we propose the Riemannian Frank-Wolfe (RFW) method. We analyze non-asymptotic convergence rates of RFW to an optimum for (geodesically) convex…

Randomized Kaczmarz-type methods are widely used for their simplicity and efficiency in solving large-scale linear systems and optimization problems. However, their applicability is limited when dealing with inconsistent systems or…

We consider concave minimization problems over non-convex sets.Optimization problems with this structure arise in sparse principal component analysis. We analyze both a gradient projection algorithm and an approximate Newton algorithm where…

This paper examines reinforcement learning (RL) in infinite-horizon decision processes with almost-sure safety constraints, crucial for applications like autonomous systems, finance, and resource management. We propose a doubly-regularized…

We study the convergence rate of Bregman gradient methods for convex optimization in the space of measures on a $d$-dimensional manifold. Under basic regularity assumptions, we show that the suboptimality gap at iteration $k$ is in…

Learning representation from relative similarity comparisons, often called ordinal embedding, gains rising attention in recent years. Most of the existing methods are based on semi-definite programming (\textit{SDP}), which is generally…

This paper proposes a new gradient method to solve the large-scale problems. Theoretical analysis shows that the new method has finite termination property for two dimensions and converges R-linearly for any dimensions. Experimental results…

We introduce new multilevel methods for solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems. Specifically, the philosophy of multilevel methods is applied to Newton-type methods that regularize the Newton sub-problem using second order…

Meshfree methods based on radial basis function (RBF) approximation are of interest for numerical solution of partial differential equations (PDEs) because they are flexible with respect to the geometry of the computational domain, they can…

We consider a class of optimization problems with Cartesian variational inequality (CVI) constraints, where the objective function is convex and the CVI is associated with a monotone mapping and a convex Cartesian product set. This…

In this paper we propose distributed dual gradient algorithms for linearly constrained separable convex problems and analyze their rate of convergence under different assumptions. Under the strong convexity assumption on the primal…

We consider a composite convex minimization problem associated with regularized empirical risk minimization, which often arises in machine learning. We propose two new stochastic gradient methods that are based on stochastic dual averaging…

This paper proposes a simple, accurate, and robust approach to single image nonparametric blind Super-Resolution (SR). This task is formulated as a functional to be minimized with respect to both an intermediate super-resolved image and a…

Variance reduction techniques are popular in accelerating gradient descent and stochastic gradient descent for optimization problems defined on both Euclidean space and Riemannian manifold. In this paper, we further improve on existing…

Regularisation theory in Banach spaces, and non--norm-squared regularisation even in finite dimensions, generally relies upon Bregman divergences to replace norm convergence. This is comparable to the extension of first-order optimisation…

Our work focuses on stochastic gradient methods for optimizing a smooth non-convex loss function with a non-smooth non-convex regularizer. Research on this class of problem is quite limited, and until recently no non-asymptotic convergence…

We study the Bregman Augmented Lagrangian method (BALM) for solving convex problems with linear constraints. For classical Augmented Lagrangian method, the convergence rate and its relation with the proximal point method is well-understood.…

In this paper we propose a variant of the random coordinate descent method for solving linearly constrained convex optimization problems with composite objective functions. If the smooth part of the objective function has Lipschitz…

In this paper, we consider a nonconvex optimization problem with nonlinear equality constraints. We assume that both, the objective function and the functional constraints are locally smooth. For solving this problem, we propose a…

In this paper, we consider constrained optimization problems with convex, smooth objective and constraints. We propose a new stochastic gradient algorithm, called the Stochastic Moving Ball Approximation (SMBA) method, to solve this class…
