Convergence analysis on a modified generalized alternating direction method of multipliers

Abstract The alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is one of the most powerful and successful methods for solving convex composite minimization problem. The generalized ADMM relaxes both the variables and the multipliers with a common relaxation factor in (0,2) $(0,2)$, which has the po...

description Abstract The alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is one of the most powerful and successful methods for solving convex composite minimization problem. The generalized ADMM relaxes both the variables and the multipliers with a common relaxation factor in (0,2) $(0,2)$, which has the potential of enhancing the performance of the classic ADMM. Very recently, two different variants of semi-proximal generalized ADMM have been proposed. They allow the weighting matrix in the proximal terms to be positive semidefinite, which makes the subproblems relatively easy to evaluate. One of the variants of semi-proximal generalized ADMMs has been analyzed theoretically, but the convergence result of the other is not known so far. This paper aims to remedy this deficiency and establish its convergence result under some mild conditions in the sense that the relaxation factor is also restricted into (0,2) $(0,2)$.
