A Universally Optimal Primal-Dual Method for Minimizing Heterogeneous Compositions
This paper proposes a universal, optimal algorithm for convex minimization problems of the composite form $g_0(x)+h(g_1(x),\dots, g_m(x)) + u(x)$. We allow each $g_j$ to independently range from being nonsmooth Lipschitz to smooth, from convex to strongly convex, described by notions of H\”older continuous gradients and uniform convexity. Note that, although the objective is built from … Read more
