A Stochastic Variance Reduction Algorithm with Bregman Distances for Structured Composite Problems

Abstract

We develop a novel stochastic primal dual splitting method with Bregman distances for solving a structured composite problems involving infimal convolutions in non-Euclidean spaces. The sublinear convergence in expectation of the primal-dual gap is proved under mild conditions on stepsize for the general case. The linear convergence rate is obtained under additional condition like the strong convexity relative to Bregman functions.
