    An adaptive regularization algorithm using high-order models is proposed for partially separable convexly constrained nonlinear optimization problems whose objective function contains non-Lipschitzian $\ell_q$-norm regularization terms for $q\in (0,1)$. It is shown that the algorithm using an $p$-th order Taylor model for $p$ odd needs in general at most $O(\epsilon^{-(p+1)/p})$ evaluations of the objective function and … Read more

    The rank minimization with linear equality constraints has two closely related models, the low rank approximation model, that is to find the best rank-k approximation of a matrix satisfying the linear constraints, and its corresponding factorization model. The latter one is an unconstrained nonlinear least squares problem and hence enjoys a few fast first-order methods … Read more
