Avoiding bad steps in Frank Wolfe variants
Francesco Rinaldi, Damiano Zeffiro
The analysis of Frank Wolfe (FW) variants is often complicated by the presence of different kinds of "good" and "bad" steps. In this article we aim to simplify the convergence anal…
A unifying framework for the analysis of projection-free first-order methods under a sufficient slope condition
Francesco Rinaldi, Damiano Zeffiro
The analysis of projection-free first order methods is often complicated by the presence of different kinds of "good" and "bad" steps. In this article, we propose a unifying framew…
A derivative-free method for structured optimization problems
Andrea Cristofari, Francesco Rinaldi
Structured optimization problems are ubiquitous in fields like data science and engineering. The goal in structured optimization is using a prescribed set of points, called atoms,…
Solving non-monotone equilibrium problems via a DIRECT-type approach
Stefano Lucidi, Mauro Passacantando, Francesco Rinaldi
A global optimization approach for solving non-monotone equilibrium problems (EPs) is proposed. The class of (regularized) gap functions is used to reformulate any EP as a constrai…
Zero Order Stochastic Weakly Convex Composite Optimization
V. Kungurtsev, F. Rinaldi
In this paper we consider stochastic weakly convex composite problems, however without the existence of a stochastic subgradient oracle. We present a derivative free algorithm that…
