Alternating Iteratively Reweighted \(\ell_1\) and Subspace Newton Algorithms for Nonconvex Sparse Optimization
This paper presents a novel hybrid algorithm for minimizing the sum of a continuously differentiable loss function and a nonsmooth, possibly nonconvex, sparsity‑promoting regularizer. The proposed method adaptively switches between solving a reweighted \(\ell_1\)-regularized subproblem and performing an inexact subspace Newton step. The reweighted \(\ell_1\)-subproblem admits an efficient closed-form solution via the soft-thresholding operator, thereby … Read more
