# Accelerated Bregman Proximal Gradient Methods

A Python package of accelerated first-order algorithms for solving relatively-smooth convex optimization problems

    minimize { f(x) + P(x) | x in C }

with a reference function h(x), where C is a closed convex set and

* h(x) is convex and essentially smooth on C;
* f(x) is convex and differentiable, and L-smooth relative to h(x), that is, f(x)-L*h(x) is convex;
* P(x) is convex and closed (lower semi-continuous).

### Implemented algorithms in [HRX2018](https://arxiv.org/abs/1808.03045):

* BPG(Bregman proximal gradient) method with line search option
* ABPG (Accelerated BPG) method
* ABPG-expo (ABPG with exponent adaption)
* ABPG-gain (ABPG with gain adaption)
* ABDA (Accelerated Bregman dual averaging) method

Additional algorithms for solving D-Optimal Experiment Design problems:

* D_opt_FW (basic Frank-Wolfe method)
* D_opt_FW_away (Frank-Wolfe method with away steps)

## Install

Clone or fork from GitHub. Or install from PyPI:

    pip install accbpg

## Usage

Example: generate a random instance of D-optimal design problem and solve it using two different methods.

```python
import accbpg

# generate a random instance of D-optimal design problem of size 80 by 200
f, h, L, x0 = accbpg.D_opt_design(80, 200)

# solve the problem instance using BPG with line search
x1, F1, G1, T1 = accbpg.BPG(f, h, L, x0, maxitrs=1000, verbskip=100)

# solve it again using ABPG with gamma=2
x2, F2, G2, T2 = accbpg.ABPG(f, h, L, x0, gamma=2, maxitrs=1000, verbskip=100)

# solve it again using adaptive variant of ABPG with gamma=2
x3, F3, G3, _, _, T3 = accbpg.ABPG_gain(f, h, L, x0, gamma=2, maxitrs=1000, verbskip=100)
```

D-optimal experiment design problems can be constructed from files (LIBSVM format) directly using

```python
f, h, L, X0 = accbpg.D_opt_libsvm(filename)
```

All algorithms can work with customized functions f(x) and h(x), and an example is given in [this Python file](accbpg/ex_LR_L2L1Linf.py).
