Abstract
We introduce SPIRAL, a SuPerlinearly convergent Incremental pRoximal ALgorithm, for solving nonconvex regularized finite sum problems under a relative smoothness assumption. Each iteration of SPIRAL consists of an inner and an outer loop. It combines incremental gradient updates with a linesearch that has the remarkable property of never being triggered asymptotically, leading to superlinear convergence under mild assumptions at the limit point. Simulation results with L-BFGS directions on different convex, nonconvex, and non-Lipschitz differentiable problems show that our algorithm, as well as its adaptive variant, are competitive to the state of the art.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
