Cyclic Proximal Point

The Cyclic Proximal Point (CPP) algorithm is a Proximal Problem.

It aims to minimize

\[F(x) = \sum_{i=1}^c f_i(x)\]

assuming that the proximal maps $\operatorname{prox}_{\lambda f_i}(x)$ are given in closed form or can be computed efficiently (at least approximately).

The algorithm then cycles through these proximal maps, where the type of cycle might differ and the proximal parameter $\lambda_k$ changes after each cycle $k$.

For a convergence result on Hadamard manifolds see [Bačák, 2014].

Manopt.cyclic_proximal_pointFunction
cyclic_proximal_point(M, F, proxes, x)

perform a cyclic proximal point algorithm.

Input

  • M – a manifold $\mathcal M$
  • F – a cost function $F\colon\mathcal M\to\mathbb R$ to minimize
  • proxes – an Array of proximal maps (Functions) (λ,x) -> y for the summands of $F$
  • x – an initial value $x ∈ \mathcal M$

Optional

the default values are given in brackets

  • evaluation_order – (:Linear) – whether to use a randomly permuted sequence (:FixedRandom), a per cycle permuted sequence (Random) or the default linear one.
  • λ – ( iter -> 1/iter ) a function returning the (square summable but not summable) sequence of λi
  • stopping_criterion – (StopWhenAny(StopAfterIteration(5000),StopWhenChangeLess(10.0^-8))) a StoppingCriterion.
  • return_options – (false) – if actiavated, the extended result, i.e. the complete Options are returned. This can be used to access recorded values. If set to false (default) just the optimal value x_opt if returned

and the ones that are passed to decorate_options for decorators.

Output

  • x_opt – the resulting (approximately critical) point of gradientDescent

OR

  • options - the options returned by the solver (see return_options)

perform a cyclic proximal point algorithm in place of x.

Input

CyclicProximalPointOptions <: Options

stores options for the cyclic_proximal_point algorithm. These are the

Fields

  • x – the current iterate
  • stopping_criterion – a StoppingCriterion
  • λ – (@(iter) -> 1/iter) a function for the values of λ_k per iteration/cycle
  • evaluation_order – (:LinearOrder) – whether to use a randomly permuted sequence (:FixedRandomOrder), a per cycle permuted sequence (RandomOrder) or the default linear one.
