M-duality in fixed-point problems for general normed spaces

Jongmin Lee, Sangyeop Woo, Ernest K. Ryu

Solving fixed-point problems by reducing residual bounds is one of the central approaches in fixed-point iteration, and, in particular, the Halpern iteration is known to effectivel…

Why Policy Gradient Algorithms Work for Undiscounted Total-Reward MDPs

Jongmin Lee, Ernest K. Ryu

The classical policy gradient method is the theoretical and conceptual foundation of modern policy-based reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms. Most rigorous analyses of such meth…

Deflated Dynamics Value Iteration

Jongmin Lee, Amin Rakhsha, Ernest K. Ryu +1

The Value Iteration (VI) algorithm is an iterative procedure to compute the value function of a Markov decision process, and is the basis of many reinforcement learning (RL) algori…

Convergence Analyses of Davis-Yin Splitting via Scaled Relative Graphs

Jongmin Lee, Soheun Yi, Ernest K. Ryu

Davis-Yin splitting (DYS) has found a wide range of applications in optimization, but its linear rates of convergence have not been studied extensively. The scaled relative graph (…

Neural Tangent Kernel Analysis of Deep Narrow Neural Networks

Jongmin Lee, Joo Young Choi, Ernest K. Ryu +1

The tremendous recent progress in analyzing the training dynamics of overparameterized neural networks has primarily focused on wide networks and therefore does not sufficiently ad…

A Geometric Structure of Acceleration and Its Role in Making Gradients Small Fast

Jongmin Lee, Chanwoo Park, Ernest K. Ryu

Since Nesterov's seminal 1983 work, many accelerated first-order optimization methods have been proposed, but their analyses lacks a common unifying structure. In this work, we ide…
