A modified inertial proximal alternating direction method of multipliers with dual-relaxed term for structured nonconvex and nonsmooth problem

Abstract

In this research, we introduce a novel optimization algorithm termed the dual-relaxed inertial alternating direction method of multipliers (DR-IADM), tailored for handling nonconvex and nonsmooth problems. These problems are characterized by an objective function that is a composite of three elements: a smooth composite function combined with a linear operator, a nonsmooth function, and a mixed function of two variables. To facilitate the iterative process, we adopt a straightforward parameter selection approach, integrate inertial components within each subproblem, and introduce two relaxed terms to refine the dual variable update step. Within a set of reasonable assumptions, we establish the boundedness of the sequence generated by our DR-IADM algorithm. Furthermore, leveraging the Kurdyka–Łojasiewicz (KŁ) property, we demonstrate the global convergence of the proposed method. To validate the practicality and efficacy of our algorithm, we present numerical experiments that corroborate its performance. In summary, our contribution lies in proposing DR-IADM for a specific class of optimization problems, proving its convergence properties, and supporting the theoretical claims with numerical evidence.
