Abstract

Objective functions with relative smoothness (a generalization of the Lipschitz smoothness) and weak convexity (a generalization of convexity) encompass many applications in the domains such as signal and image processing, machine learning and inverse problems. In this talk, we first generate a smooth approximation of the objective function via Bregman forward-backward envelope (BFBE) and design a trust-region method to find a critical point of the original function. This includes, the convergence analysis and the numerical experiments demonstrating the theoretical and practical efficiency of the proposed method.
