The Black-Box Optimization Problem: Zero-Order Accelerated Stochastic Method via Kernel Approximation

Aleksandr Lobanov, Nail Bashirov, Alexander Gasnikov

In this paper, we study the standard formulation of an optimization problem when the computation of gradient is not available. Such a problem can be classified as a "black box" opt…

Highly Smoothness Zero-Order Methods for Solving Optimization Problems under PL Condition

Aleksandr Lobanov, Alexander Gasnikov, Fedor Stonyakin

In this paper, we study the black box optimization problem under the Polyak--Lojasiewicz (PL) condition, assuming that the objective function is not just smooth, but has higher smo…

Stochastic Adversarial Noise in the "Black Box" Optimization Problem

Aleksandr Lobanov

This paper is devoted to the study of the solution of a stochastic convex black box optimization problem. Where the black box problem means that the gradient-free oracle only retur…

Zero-Order Stochastic Conditional Gradient Sliding Method for Non-smooth Convex Optimization

Aleksandr Lobanov, Anton Anikin, Alexander Gasnikov +2

The conditional gradient idea proposed by Marguerite Frank and Philip Wolfe in 1956 was so well received by the community that new algorithms (also called Frank--Wolfe type algorit…
