An optimal method for stochastic composite optimization
This paper considers an important class of convex programming (CP) problems, namely, the stochastic composite optimization (SCO), whose objective function is given by the summation of general nonsmooth and smooth stochastic components. Since SCO covers non-smooth, smooth and stochastic CP as certain special cases, a valid lower bound on the rate of convergence for solving these problems is know...
متن کاملOptimal Stochastic Approximation Algorithms for Strongly Convex Stochastic Composite Optimization, II: Shrinking Procedures and Optimal Algorithms
In this paper we study new stochastic approximation (SA) type algorithms, namely, the accelerated SA (AC-SA), for solving strongly convex stochastic composite optimization (SCO) problems. Specifically, by introducing a domain shrinking procedure, we significantly improve the large-deviation results associated with the convergence rate of a nearly optimal AC-SA algorithm presented in [4]. Moreov...
متن کاملA Smoothing Stochastic Gradient Method for Composite Optimization
We consider the unconstrained optimization problem whose objective function is composed of a smooth and a non-smooth conponents where the smooth component is the expectation a random function. This type of problem arises in some interesting applications in machine learning. We propose a stochastic gradient descent algorithm for this class of optimization problem. When the non-smooth component h...
متن کاملInexact proximal stochastic gradient method for convex composite optimization
We study an inexact proximal stochastic gradient (IPSG) method for convex composite optimization, whose objective function is a summation of an average of a large number of smooth convex functions and a convex, but possibly nonsmooth, function. Variance reduction techniques are incorporated in the method to reduce the stochastic gradient variance. The main feature of this IPSG algorithm is to a...
متن کاملA Sparsity Preserving Stochastic Gradient Method for Composite Optimization
We propose new stochastic gradient algorithms for solving convex composite optimization problems. In each iteration, our algorithms utilize a stochastic oracle of the gradient of the smooth component in the objective function. Our algorithms are based on a stochastic version of the estimate sequence technique introduced by Nesterov (Introductory Lectures on Convex Optimization: A Basic Course, ...
