We propose a prox-regular-type low-rank constrained nonconvex nonsmooth optimization model for Robust Low-Rank Matrix Recovery (RLRMR), i.e., estimate problem of low-rank matrix from an observed signal corrupted by outliers. For RLRMR, the $\ell_{1}$-norm has been utilized as a convex loss to detect…
We propose a proximal variable smoothing algorithm for nonsmooth optimization problem with sum of three functions involving weakly convex composite function. The proposed algorithm is designed as a time-varying forward-backward splitting algorithm with two steps: (i) a time-varying forward step with…
The equilibrium selection problem in the generalized Nash equilibrium problem (GNEP) has recently been studied as an optimization problem, defined over the set of all variational equilibria achievable through a lower-level non-cooperative game among players. However, to make such a selection fair fo…
We propose a variable smoothing algorithm for solving nonconvexly constrained nonsmooth optimization problems. The target problem has two issues that need to be addressed: (i) the nonconvex constraint and (ii) the nonsmooth term. To handle the nonconvex constraint, we translate the target problem in…
Optimization problem with orthogonality constraints, whose feasible region is called the Stiefel manifold, has rich applications in data sciences. The severe non-linearity of the Stiefel manifold has hindered the utilization of optimization mechanisms developed specially over a vector space for the…
