Primal-dual splitting for structured composite monotone inclusions with or without cocoercivity

In this paper, we propose a primal-dual splitting algorithm for a broad class of structured composite monotone inclusions that involve finitely many set-valued operators, compositions of set-valued operators with bounded linear operators, and single-valued operators possibly without cocoercivity. The proposed algorithm is not only a unification for several contemporary algorithms but also a blueprint to generate new algorithms with graph-based structures using a single transparent convergence analysis. Our approach reduces dimensionality compared with the standard product space technique, which typically reformulates the original problem as the sum of two maximally monotone operators in order to apply splitting methods. It accommodates different cocoercive or Lipschitz constants as well as different resolvent parameters, and yields a larger allowable stepsize range than recent methods. We demonstrate the practicality of the approach by a numerical experiment on cancer detection using the decentralized fused LASSO problem.

A general approach to distributed operator splitting

Splitting methods have emerged as powerful tools to address complex problems by decomposing them into smaller solvable components. In this work, we develop a general approach to forward-backward splitting methods for solving monotone inclusion problems involving both set-valued and single-valued operators, where the latter may lack cocoercivity. Our proposed approach, based on some coefficient matrices, not only encompasses several important existing algorithms but also extends to new ones, offering greater flexibility for different applications. Moreover, by appropriately selecting the coefficient matrices, the resulting algorithms can be implemented in a distributed and decentralized manner.
