报告内容：Nowadays, a wide variety of real-world applications appear as convex optimization problems, esp. large-scale complicated convex programming, which motivate developments of advanced optimization and computing algorithms attaining optimum efficiently in a global sense. This, hence, stimulates an enormous spread of research topics in both mathematical analysis and optimization algorithms, such as variational analysis, convergence analysis and acceleration, high-performance parallel computing etc. We contribute this talk on our recent developments of dual optimization and linearized augmented Lagrangian methods (ALMs). We show a novel prediction-correction formulation of modern linearized ALM based on variational inequality analysis. Also, we present an analysis on the step-size of the associate proximal term, which results in an indefinite proximity regularization and speeds up convergence in numeric. Experiments on machine learning and image segmentation demonstrate superior performance of the new indefinite linearized augmented Lagrangian method and confirm our theoretical analysis on the optimal step-size and convergence rate.
