Yuxue Ma In this paper, we focus on a class of convex optimization problems subject to equality or inequality constraints and have developed an Accelerated Inexact Augmented Lagrangian Method (AI-ALM). Different relative error criteria are designed to solve the subproblem of AI-ALM inexactly, and the popular used relaxation step is exploited to accelerate the convergence. By a … Read more
In this paper, an inexact Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) has been proposed for solving the two-block separable convex optimization problem subject to linear equality constraints. The first resulting subproblem is solved inexactly under relative error criterion, while another subproblem called regularization problem is solved inexactly by introducing an indefinite proximal term. Meanwhile, the … Read more
In this paper, we consider a prototypical convex optimization problem with multi-block variables and separable structures. By adding the Logarithmic Quadratic Proximal (LQP) regularizer with suitable proximal parameter to each of the first grouped subproblems, we develop a partial LQP-based Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM-LQP). The dual variable is updated twice with relatively larger … Read more
