A Modified Proximal Symmetric ADMM for Multi-Block Separable Convex Optimization with Linear Constraints

We consider the linearly constrained separable convex optimization problem whose objective function is separable w.r.t. $m$ blocks of variables. A bunch of methods have been proposed and well studied. Specifically, a modified strictly contractive Peaceman-Rachford splitting method (SC-PRCM) has been well studied in the literature for the special case of $m=3$. Based on the modified … Read more

A Partial PPa S-ADMM for Multi-Block for Separable Convex Optimization with Linear Constraints

The symmetric alternating direction method of multipliers (S-ADMM) is a classical effective method for solving two-block separable convex optimization. However, its convergence may not be guaranteed for multi-block case providing there is no additional assumptions. In this paper, we propose a partial PPa S-ADMM (referred as P3SADMM), which updates the Lagrange multiplier twice with suitable … Read more

Generalized Symmetric ADMM for Separable Convex Optimization

The Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) has been proved to be effective for solving separable convex optimization subject to linear constraints. In this paper, we propose a Generalized Symmetric ADMM (GS-ADMM), which updates the Lagrange multiplier twice with suitable stepsizes, to solve the multi-block separable convex programming. This GS-ADMM partitions the data into two … Read more
