An Inexact Primal-Dual Smoothing Framework for Large-Scale Non-Bilinear Saddle Point Problems
We develop an inexact primal-dual first-order smoothing framework to solve a class of non-bilinear saddle point problems with primal strong convexity. Compared with existing methods, our framework yields a significant improvement over the primal oracle complexity, while it has competitive dual oracle complexity. In addition, we consider the situation where the primal-dual coupling term has … Read more
