New analysis and results for the Frank–Wolfe method

We present new results for the Frank–Wolfe method (also known as the conditional gradient method). We derive computational guarantees for arbitrary step-size sequences, which are then applied to various step-size rules, including simple averaging and constant step-sizes. We also develop step-size ru...
