An adaptive regularization algorithm using inexact function and derivatives evaluations is proposed for the solution of composite nonsmooth nonconvex optimization. It is shown that this algorithm needs at most O(|log(epsilon)|.epsilon^{-2}) evaluations of the problem’s functions and their derivatives for finding an $\epsilon$-approximate first-order stationary point. This complexity bound therefore generalizes that provided by [Bellavia, Gurioli, Morini and Toint, 2018] for inexact methods for smooth nonconvex problems, and is within a factor |log(epsilon)| of the optimal bound known for smooth and nonsmooth nonconvex minimization with exact evaluations. A practically more restrictive variant of the algorithm with worst-case complexity O(|log(epsilon)|+epsilon^{-2}) is also presented.
