Randomized Bregman Coordinate Descent Methods for Non-Lipschitz Optimization
We propose a new \textit{randomized Bregman (block) coordinate descent} (RBCD) method for minimizing a composite problem, where the objective function could be either convex or nonconvex, and the smooth part are freed from the global Lipschitz-continuous (partial) gradient assumption. Under the notion of relative smoothness based on the Bregman distance, we prove that every limit point of the generated sequence is a stationary point. Further, we show that the iteration complexity of the proposed method is $O(n\varepsilon^{-2})$ to achieve $\epsilon$-stationary point, where $n$ is the number of blocks of coordinates. If the objective is assumed to be convex, the iteration complexity is improved to $O(n\epsilon^{-1} )$. If, in addition, the objective is strongly convex (relative to the reference function), the global linear convergence rate is recovered. We also present the accelerated version of the RBCD method, which attains an $O(n\varepsilon^{-1/\gamma} )$ iteration complexity for the convex case, where the scalar $\gamma\in [1,2]$ is determined by the \textit{generalized translation variant} of the Bregman distance. Convergence analysis without assuming the global Lipschitz-continuous (partial) gradient sets our results apart from the existing works in the composite problems.

Leveraging Two Reference Functions in Block Bregman Proximal Gradient Descent for Non-convex and Non-Lipschitz Problems
In the applications of signal processing and data analytics, there is a wide class of non-convex problems whose objective function is freed from the common global Lipschitz continuous gradient assumption (e.g., the nonne…
Explicit Regularization of Stochastic Gradient Methods through Duality
We consider stochastic gradient methods under the interpolation regime where a perfect fit can be obtained (minimum loss at each observation). While previous work highlighted the implicit regularization of such algorithm…
Relative Lipschitzness in Extragradient Methods and a Direct Recipe for Acceleration
We show that standard extragradient methods (i.e. mirror prox and dual extrapolation) recover optimal accelerated rates for first-order minimization of smooth convex functions. To obtain this result we provide a fine-gra…
regressionEfficiency of Coordinate Descent Methods For Structured Nonconvex Optimization
Novel coordinate descent (CD) methods are proposed for minimizing nonconvex functions consisting of three terms: (i) a continuously differentiable term, (ii) a simple convex term, and (iii) a concave and continuous term.…
Coordinate Descent Converges Faster with the Gauss-Southwell Rule Than Random Selection
There has been significant recent work on the theory and application of randomized coordinate descent algorithms, beginning with the work of Nesterov [SIAM J. Optim., 22(2), 2012], who showed that a random-coordinate sel…
