In this paper, we study a first-order inexact primal-dualalgorithm (I-PDA) for solving a class of convex-concave saddle point problems. The I-PDA, which involves a relative error criterion and generalizes the classical PDA, has the advantage of solving one subproblem inexactly when it does not have a closed-form solution. We show that the whole sequence generated by I-PDA converges to a saddle point solution with 0(1/N) ergodic convergence rate, where N is the iteration number. In addition, under a mild calmness condition, we establish the global Q-linear convergence rate of the distance between the iterates generated by I-PDA and the solution set, and the R-linear convergence speed of the nonergodic iterates. Furthermore, we demonstrate that many problems arising from practical applications satisfy this calmness condition. Finally, some numerical experiments are performed to show the superiority and linear convergence behaviors of I-PDA.

In this paper, we study the linear convergence of several well-known first-orderprimal-dual methods for solving a class of convex-concave saddle point problems. We first unify the convergence analysis of these methods and prove the O(1/N) convergence rates of the primal-dual gap generated by these methods in the ergodic sense, where N counts the number of iterations. Under a mild calmness condition, we further establish the global Q-linear convergence rate of the distances between the iterates generated by these methods and the solution set, and show the R-linear rate of the iterates in the nonergodic sense. Moreover, we demonstrate that the matrix games, fused lasso and constrained TV-l(2) image restoration models as application examples satisfy this calmness condition. Numerical experiments on fused lasso demonstrate the linear rates for these methods.

We propose two approximate versions of the first-orderprimaldualalgorithm (PDA) to solve a class of convex-concave saddle point problems. The introduced approximate criteria are easy to implement in the sense that they only involve the subgradient of a certain function at the current iterate. The first approximate PDA solves both subproblems inexactly and adopts the absolute error criteria, which are based on non-negative summable sequences. Assuming that one of the PDA subproblems can be solved exactly, the second approximate PDA solves the other subproblem approximately and adopts a relative error criterion. The relative error criterion only involves a single parameter in the range of [0, 1), which makes the method more applicable. For both versions, we establish the global convergence and O(1/N) convergence rate measured by the iteration complexity, where N counts the number of iterations. For the inexact PDA with absolute error criteria, we show the accelerated O(1/N-2) and linear convergence rate under the assumptions that a part of the underlying functions and both underlying functions are strongly convex, respectively. Then, we prove that these inexact criteria can also be extended to solve a class of more general problems. Finally, we perform some numerical experiments on sparse recovery and image processing problems. The results demonstrate the feasibility and superiority of the proposed methods.

We investigate the convergence of a recently popular class of first-order primal-dual algorithms for saddle point problems under the presence of errors in the proximal maps and gradients. We study several types of errors and show that, provided a sufficient decay of these errors, the same convergence rates as for the error-free algorithm can be established. More precisely, we prove the (optimal) O(1/N) convergence to a saddle point in finite dimensions for the class of non-smooth problems considered in this paper, and prove a O1/N2 or even linear ON convergence rate if either the primal or dual objective respectively both are strongly convex. Moreover we show that also under a slower decay of errors we can establish rates, however slower and directly depending on the decay of the errors. We demonstrate the performance and practical use of the algorithms on the example of nested algorithms and show how they can be used to split the global objective more efficiently.

PM2.5 mass concentration prediction is an important research issue because of the increasing impact of air pollution on the urban environment. In this paper, a PM2.5 forecasting framework incorporating meteorological factors based on multiple kernel learning (MKL) is proposed to forecast the near future PM2.5. In addition, we develop a novel two-step algorithm for solving the primal MKL problem. Compared with most existing MKL 2-step algorithms, the proposed algorithm does not require the optimal step size for updating kernel combination coefficients by linear search. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed forecasting framework, its performance is compared to single kernel-based support vector regression (SVR). Data sets of an inland city Beijing acquired from UCI are used to train and validate both of two methods. Experiments show that our proposed method outperforms the SVR.
