Global non-asymptotic super-linear convergence rates of regularized proximal quasi-Newton methods on non-smooth composite problems

In this paper, we propose two regularized proximal quasi-Newton methods with symmetric rank-1 update of the metric (SR1 quasi-Newton) to solve non-smooth convex additive composite problems. Both algorithms avoid using line search or other trust region strategies. For each of them, we prove a super-linear convergence rate that is independent of the initialization of the … Read more
