چکیده

This short note considers and resolves the apparent contradiction between known worst-case complexity results for first and second-order methods for solving unconstrained smooth nonconvex optimization problems and a recent note by Jarre (2011) implying a very large lower bound on the number of iterations required to reach the solution’s neighbourhood for a specific problem with variable dimension.

On Nesterov's smooth Chebyshev-Rosenbrock function

We discuss a modification of the chained Rosenbrock function introduced by Nesterov. This function rN is a polynomial of degree four defined for x ∈ R. Its only stationary point is the global minimizer x∗ = (1, 1, . . . , 1) with optimal value zero. A point x in the box B := {x | −1 ≤ xi ≤ 1 for 1 ≤ i ≤ n} with rN (x) = 1 is given such that there is a continuous descent path within B that start...

A Note on the Smooth Estimator of the Quantile Function with Left-Truncated Data

This note focuses on estimating the quantile function based on the kernel smooth estimator under a truncated dependent model. The Bahadurtype representation of the kernel smooth estimator is established, and from the Bahadur representation it can be seen that this estimator is strongly consistent.

A unified convergence bound for conjugate gradient and accelerated gradient∗

Nesterov’s accelerated gradient method for minimizing a smooth strongly convex function f is known to reduce f(xk) − f(x∗) by a factor of ∈ (0, 1) after k ≥ O( √ L/` log(1/ )) iterations, where `, L are the two parameters of smooth strong convexity. Furthermore, it is known that this is the best possible complexity in the function-gradient oracle model of computation. The method of linear conju...

A NORM INEQUALITY FOR CHEBYSHEV CENTRES

In this paper, we study the Chebyshev centres of bounded subsets of normed spaces and obtain a norm inequality for relative centres. In particular, we prove that if T is a remotal subset of an inner product space H, and F is a star-shaped set at a relative Chebyshev centre c of T with respect to F, then llx - qT (x)1I2 2 Ilx-cll2 + Ilc-qT (c) 112 x E F, where qT : F + T is any choice functi...
