A Line-search-free Method for Adaptive Decentralized Optimization

Xiaokai Chen, Ilya Kuruzov, Gesualdo Scutari

We study decentralized optimization over networks where agents cooperatively minimize a smooth (strongly) convex sum of local losses while communicating only with immediate neighbo…

Adaptive Decentralized Composite Optimization via Three-Operator Splitting

Xiaokai Chen, Ilya Kuruzov, Gesualdo Scutari

The paper studies decentralized optimization over networks, where agents minimize a sum of {\it locally} smooth (strongly) convex losses and plus a nonsmooth convex extended value…

A Parameter-free Decentralized Algorithm for Composite Convex Optimization

Xiaokai Chen, Ilya Kuruzov, Gesualdo Scutari +1

The paper studies decentralized optimization over networks, where agents minimize a composite objective consisting of the sum of smooth convex functions--the agents' losses--and an…

Adaptive Stepsize Selection in Decentralized Convex Optimization

Ilya Kuruzov, Xiaokai Chen, Gesualdo Scutari +1

We study decentralized optimization where multiple agents minimize the average of their (strongly) convex, smooth losses over a communication graph. Convergence of the existing dec…

DCatalyst: A Unified Accelerated Framework for Decentralized Optimization

Tianyu Cao, Xiaokai Chen, Gesualdo Scutari

We study decentralized optimization over a network of agents, modeled as graphs, with no central server. The goal is to minimize , where represents a (strongly) convex fun…

Enhancing Convergence of Decentralized Gradient Tracking under the KL Property

Xiaokai Chen, Tianyu Cao, Gesualdo Scutari

We study decentralized multiagent optimization over networks, modeled as undirected graphs. The optimization problem consists of minimizing a nonconvex smooth function plus a conve…
