Homotopy Smoothing for Non-Smooth Problems with Lower Complexity than
Yi Xu, Yan Yan, Qihang Lin +1
In this paper, we develop a novel {\bf ho}moto{\bf p}y {\bf s}moothing (HOPS) algorithm for solving a family of non-smooth problems that is composed of a non-smooth term with an ex…

An Accelerated Proximal Coordinate Gradient Method and its Application to Regularized Empirical Risk Minimization
Qihang Lin, Zhaosong Lu, Lin Xiao
We consider the problem of minimizing the sum of two convex functions: one is smooth and given by a gradient oracle, and the other is separable over blocks of coordinates and has a…

A Smoothing Stochastic Gradient Method for Composite Optimization
Qihang Lin, Xi Chen, Javier Pena
We consider the unconstrained optimization problem whose objective function is composed of a smooth and a non-smooth conponents where the smooth component is the expectation a rand…
