Stochastic primal-dual three operator splitting algorithm with extension to equivariant regularization-by-denoising

From MaRDI portal





This interesting paper discusses a new stochastic primal-dual three operator splitting algorithm with extensions to equivariant regularization via denoising. To set the scene, the authors introduce the following algorithm: \N\[\Nx^*=\min_{x\in X}(f(Ax)+g(x)+h(x)), \N\] \Nwhere \(X\in \mathbb R^d\) is convex, \(A\in\mathbb R^{N\times d}\) is a linear operator, \(f(A\cdot)\) represents data fidelity, \(g\) is a regularizer which admits a sample proximal operator, and \(h\) is another regularizer for which gradients are readily acessible. All three terms, \(f\), \(g\), \(h\), are proper convex lower-semicontinuous functions, while in addition \(h\) has Lipschitz-continuous gradients. The problem is often formulated as a dual saddle-point optimizer problem of the form:\N\[\N[x^*,y^*]=\min_{x\in X}\max_{y\in Y}(h(x)+g(x)+\langle Ax,y \rangle -f^*(y)),\N\]\Nwhere \(f^*(y)=\sup_{z\in Y}\langle z,y \rangle -f(z)\). In this paper the authors use stochastic gradient methods to solve this latter saddle-point optimization problem if it admits a finite-sum structure. Their algorithm in this regard shows an ergodic \(O(1/K)\) convergence rate. The authors also provide extensions of their algorithm, which have applications in several imaging, denoising and inverse problems.\N\NFor the entire collection see [Zbl 1573.68017].
