The matrix factorization approach can transform the high-dimensional rank regularized problem to a low-dimensional factorized column-sparse regularized problem. The latter can greatly facilitate fast computations in applicable algorithms, but needs to overcome the simultaneous non-convexity of the loss and regularization functions. In this paper, we consider the factorized column-sparse regularized model. Firstly, we optimize this model with bound constraints, and establish a certain equivalence between the optimized factorization problem and rank regularized problem. Further, we strengthen the optimality condition for stationary points of the factorization problem and define the notion of strong stationary point. Moreover, we establish the equivalence between the factorization problem and its nonconvex relaxation in the sense of global minimizers and strong stationary points. To solve the factorization problem, we design two types of algorithms and give an adaptive method to reduce their computation. The first algorithm is from the relaxation point of view and its iterates own some properties from global minimizers of the factorization problem after finite iterations. We give some analysis on the convergence of its iterates to a strong stationary point. The second algorithm is designed for directly solving the factorization problem. We improve the PALM algorithm introduced by Bolte et al. (Math Program Ser A 146:459–494, 2014) for the factorization problem and give its improved convergence results. Finally, we conduct numerical experiments to show the promising performance of the proposed model and algorithms for low-rank matrix completion.</p>","PeriodicalId":18297,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Programming","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141526139","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this problem, we present a sufficient and necessary test condition to detect whether its standard semi-definite programming (SDP) relaxation is tight or not. This test condition is based on only an optimal solution pair of the SDP relaxation and its dual. When the tightness is confirmed, a global optimal solution of the original problem is found simultaneously in polynomial-time. While the tightness does not hold, the SDP relaxation and its dual are proved to have the unique optimal solutions. Moreover, the Lagrangian version of such the test condition is specified for non-homogeneous cases. Based on the Lagrangian version, it is proved that several latest sufficient conditions to test the SDP tightness are contained by our test condition under the situation of two constraints. Thirdly, as an application of the test condition, S-lemma and Yuan’s lemma are generalized to three real and four complex quadratic forms first under certain exact conditions, which improves some classical results in literature.

Scaling adjusts the shape of continuous relaxations to reduce the gaps between the upper bounds and the optimal value. We extend this technique to <i>generalized scaling</i>, employing a positive vector of parameters, which allows much more flexibility and thus potentially reduces the gaps further.

The algorithm allows for an arbitrary number of master problem processes computing new candidate points and oracle processes evaluating functions at those candidate points. These processes share information by communication with a single supervisor process that resembles the main loop of a classic bundle method. All processes run in parallel and no explicit synchronization step is required. Instead, the asynchronous and possibly outdated results of the oracle computations can be seen as an inexact function oracle.
