We consider the problem of minimizing a function, which is the sum of a linear function and a composition of a strongly convex function with a linear transformation, over a compact polyhedral set. Jaggi and Lacoste-Julien [14] showed that…

In this paper, we propose a unified primal-dual algorithm framework based on the augmented Lagrangian function for composite convex problems with conic inequality constraints. The new framework is highly versatile. First, it not only covers…

This paper is devoted to the study of acceleration methods for an inequality constrained convex optimization problem by using Lyapunov functions. We first approximate such a problem as an unconstrained optimization problem by employing the…

This paper investigates a category of constrained fractional optimization problems that emerge in various practical applications. The objective function for this category is characterized by the ratio of a numerator and denominator, both…

This paper develops a primal-dual dynamical system where the coefficients are designed in closed-loop way for solving a convex optimization problem with linear equality constraints. We first introduce a ``second-order primal" +…

We propose a fully-corrective generalized conditional gradient method (FC-GCG) for the minimization of the sum of a smooth, convex loss function and a convex one-homogeneous regularizer over a Banach space. The algorithm relies on the…

We consider minimization of the sum of a large number of convex functions, and we propose an incremental aggregated version of the proximal algorithm, which bears similarity to the incremental aggregated gradient and subgradient methods…

We provide new insight into a {\em generalized conditional subgradient} algorithm and a {\em generalized mirror descent} algorithm for the convex minimization problem \[ \min_x \; \{f(Ax) + h(x)\}.\] As Bach showed in [{\em SIAM J. Optim.},…

We propose a distributed solution for a constrained convex optimization problem over a network of clustered agents each consisted of a set of subagents. The communication range of the clustered agents is such that they can form a connected…

Variational inequality problems are recognized for their broad applications across various fields including machine learning and operations research. First-order methods have emerged as the standard approach for solving these problems due…

This work considers the non-convex finite sum minimization problem. There are several algorithms for such problems, but existing methods often work poorly when the problem is badly scaled and/or ill-conditioned, and a primary goal of this…

Despite the non-convexity of most modern machine learning parameterizations, Lagrangian duality has become a popular tool for addressing constrained learning problems. We revisit Augmented Lagrangian methods, which aim to mitigate the…

We introduce a primal-dual framework for solving linearly constrained nonconvex composite optimization problems. Our approach is based on a newly developed Lagrangian, which incorporates \emph{false penalty} and dual smoothing terms. This…

We consider the augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) as a solver for the fused lasso signal approximator (FLSA) problem. The ALM is a dual method in which squares of the constraint functions are added as penalties to the Lagrangian. In order…

In this paper, we propose a conditional gradient method for solving constrained vector optimization problems with respect to a partial order induced by a closed, convex and pointed cone with nonempty interior. When the partial order under…

This paper proposes and analyzes a proximal augmented Lagrangian (NL-IAPIAL) method for solving smooth nonconvex composite optimization problems with nonlinear $\cal K$-convex constraints, i.e., the constraints are convex with respect to…

In this paper we present a new method for solving optimization problems involving the sum of two proper, convex, lower semicontinuous functions, one of which has Lipschitz continuous gradient. The proposed method has a hybrid nature that…

We propose first order algorithms for convex optimization problems where the feasible set is described by a large number of convex inequalities that is to be explored by subgradient projections. The first algorithm is an adaptation of a…

A subgradient method is presented for solving general convex optimization problems, the main requirement being that a strictly-feasible point is known. A feasible sequence of iterates is generated, which converges to within user-specified…

We introduce a new form of Lagrangian and propose a simple first-order algorithm for nonconvex optimization with nonlinear equality constraints. We show the algorithm generates bounded dual iterates, and establish the convergence to KKT…
