Adaptive Riemannian ADMM for Nonsmooth Optimization: Optimal Complexity without Smoothing

NeurIPS 2025poster

We study the problem of minimizing the sum of a smooth function and a nonsmooth convex regularizer over a compact Riemannian submanifold embedded in Euclidean space. By introducing an auxiliary splitting variable, we propose an adaptive Riemannian alternating direction method of multipliers (ARADMM)…

Decentralized Projected Riemannian Stochastic Recursive Momentum Method for Nonconvex Optimization

AAAI 2025technical

This paper studies decentralized optimization over a compact submanifold within a communication network of n nodes, where each node possesses a smooth non-convex local cost function, and the goal is to jointly minimize the sum of these local costs. We focus particularly on the online setting, where…

Rethinking Gradient Step Denoiser: Towards Truly Pseudo-Contractive Operator

NeurIPS 2025poster

Learning pseudo-contractive denoisers is a fundamental challenge in the theoretical analysis of Plug-and-Play (PnP) methods and the Regularization by Denoising (RED) framework. While spectral methods attempt to address this challenge using the power iteration method, they fail to guarantee the trul…
