Gradient methods for minimizing composite functions
Let \(E\) be a finite-dimensional linear space with dual \(E^*\). The author provides new extended gradient methods for solving optimization problems of the form \[ \phi(x)= f(x)+ \psi(x)\to\min,\quad\text{s.t. } x\in Q, \] i.e. optimization problems where the objective function \(\phi: E\to\mathbb{R}\) is the sum of a smooth (not necessary convex) function \(f\) and a convex (not necessary smooth) function \(\psi\). The set \(Q\subset E\) is assumed to be a convex set. First it is pointed out that for general nonsmooth, nonconvex functions even resolving the question of whether a descent direction from a point exists is NP-hard. However, for the above-mentioned special form of the objective function, this problem is better solvable using the so-called composite gradient mapping \(g_L: E\to E^*\) introduced by \[ \begin{gathered} T_L(y):= \text{argmin}\Biggl\{f(y)+ \langle\nabla f(y),x-y\rangle+{L\over 2}\| x-y\|^2+ \psi(x)\mid x\in Q\Biggr\},\\ g_L(y):= L\cdot B(y- T_L(y)),\end{gathered} \] where \(B: E\to E^*\) is a fixed positive definite self-adjoint operator which defines the norm \(\| h\|=\langle Bh,h\rangle^{1/2}\) and \(L\) is a positive constant. That means that the objective of the composite gradient mapping is the sum of the objective of the known gradient mapping for smooth problems and the nonsmooth convex term. After the discussion of this mapping, some generalized gradient methods for the optimization problem are presented. It is shown that in convex and nonconvex cases there are exactly the same complexity results as in the usual smooth situation \((\psi=0)\). At the end of the paper, the author gives some examples of applications and some computational results of the proposed methods.
