A proximal method for composite minimization

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We consider minimization of functions that are compositions of convex or prox-regular functions (possibly extended-valued) with smooth vector functions. A wide variety of important optimization problems fall into this framework. We describe an algorithmic framework based on a subproblem constructed from a linearized approximation to the objective and a regularization term. Properties of local solutions of this subproblem underlie both a global convergence result and an identification property of the active manifold containing the solution of the original problem. Preliminary computational results on both convex and nonconvex examples are promising.
