Generalized Benders decomposition (GBD) is a globally optimal algorithm for mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problems, which are NP-hard and can be widely found in the area of wireless resource allocation. The main idea of GBD is…
In dual decomposition, the dual to an optimization problem with a specific structure is solved in distributed fashion using (sub)gradient and recently also fast gradient methods. The traditional dual decomposition suffers from two main…
In modern large-scale machine learning applications, the training data are often partitioned and stored on multiple machines. It is customary to employ the "data parallelism" approach, where the aggregated training loss is minimized without…
Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is a widely adopted iterative method for optimizing differentiable objective functions. In this paper, we propose and discuss a novel approach to scale up SGD in applications involving non-convex functions…
Many practical applications require solving an optimization over large and high-dimensional data sets, which makes these problems hard to solve and prohibitively time consuming. In this paper, we propose a parallel distributed algorithm…
Existing results on decomposition methods and algorithms for nonconvex problems are minimal. Parallel decomposition algorithms do not exist for nonconvex problems with coupling nonlinear equality constraints. Besides, decomposition…
Bilevel optimization has been widely used in decision-making process. However, there still lacks an efficient algorithm to determine an optimal solution of a bilevel optimization problem, especially for a large-size problem. To bridge the…
Total Generalized Variation (TGV) regularization in image reconstruction relies on an infimal convolution type combination of generalized first- and second-order derivatives. This helps to avoid the staircasing effect of Total Variation…
Generalized linear model with $L_1$ and $L_2$ regularization is a widely used technique for solving classification, class probability estimation and regression problems. With the numbers of both features and examples growing rapidly in the…
We consider a two-stage stochastic optimization problem, in which a long-term optimization variable is coupled with a set of short-term optimization variables in both objective and constraint functions. Despite that two-stage stochastic…
Normalized gradient descent has shown substantial success in speeding up the convergence of exponentially-tailed loss functions (which includes exponential and logistic losses) on linear classifiers with separable data. In this paper, we go…
An old idea in optimization theory says that since the gradient is a dual vector it may not be subtracted from the weights without first being mapped to the primal space where the weights reside. We take this idea seriously in this paper…
We study generalization properties of random features (RF) regression in high dimensions optimized by stochastic gradient descent (SGD) in under-/over-parameterized regime. In this work, we derive precise non-asymptotic error bounds of RF…
We propose in this paper a Proper Generalized Decomposition (PGD) solver for reduced-order modeling of linear elastodynamic problems. It primarily focuses on enhancing the computational efficiency of a previously introduced PGD solver based…
This paper proposes a joint decomposition method that combines La- grangian decomposition and generalized Benders decomposition, to efficiently solve multiscenario nonconvex mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problems to global…
Recent advances show that two-dimensional linear discriminant analysis (2DLDA) is a successful matrix based dimensionality reduction method. However, 2DLDA may encounter the singularity issue theoretically and the sensitivity to outliers.…
Modern decision-making scenarios often involve data that is both high-dimensional and rich in higher-order contextual information, where existing bandits algorithms fail to generate effective policies. In response, we propose in this paper…
The increasing scale of data propels the popularity of leveraging parallelism to speed up the optimization. Minibatch stochastic gradient descent (minibatch SGD) and local SGD are two popular methods for parallel optimization. The existing…
In the realm of big data and machine learning, data-parallel, distributed stochastic algorithms have drawn significant attention in the present days.~While the synchronous versions of these algorithms are well understood in terms of their…
The saddle-point problems (SPPs) with nonlinear coupling operators frequently arise in various control systems, such as dynamic programming optimization, H-infinity control, and Lyapunov stability analysis. However, traditional primal-dual…
