The modified augmented Lagrange multiplier methods (MALMM) for large-scale nonlinear constrained minimization are studied in this paper. The Lagrange function contains the penalty terms on equality and inequality constraints and the methods can be applied to solve a series of bound constrained sub-problems instead of a series of unconstrained sub-problems. The steps of the methods are examined in full detail. Numerical experiments are made for a variety of problems, from small to very large-scale, which show the stability and effectiveness of the methods in large-scale problems.展开更多

Resulting from the separable structure of the proposed model, the convex optimization problem can be solved efficiently by adopting an inexact augmented Lagrange multiplier (IALM) method. Additionally, a random projection accelerated technique (IALM+RP) was adopted to improve the success rate. From the preliminary numerical comparisons, it was indicated that for the standard robust principal component analysis (PCA) problem, IALM+RP was at least two to six times faster than IALM with an insignificant reduction in accuracy; and for the outlier pursuit (OP) problem, IALM+RP was at least 6.9 times faster, even up to 8.3 times faster when the size of matrix was 2 000×2 000.展开更多

Sometimes, however, one may come across variational crisis(somemultipliers vanish identically). failing to achieve his aim. The crisis is caused by the fact that the Inultipliers are treatedas independent variables in the process of variatioll. but after identification they become functions of the originalindependent variables. To overcome it, a Inodified Lagrange multiplier method or semi-inverse method has beenproposed to deduce generalized varistional principles.

With this fully coupled model, the rigid structure is taken as "fictitious" fluid with zero strain rate. Both fluid and structure are described by velocity and pressure. The whole domain, including fluid region and structure region, is modeled by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations which are discretized with fixed Eulerian mesh. However, to keep the structure' s rigid body shape and behavior, a rigid body constraint is enforced on the "fictitious" fluid domain by use of the Distributed Lagrange Multipher/Fictitious Domain (DLM/ FD) method which is originally introduced to solve particulate flow problems by Glowinski et al. For the verification of the model presented herein, a 2D numerical wave tank is established to simulate small amplitude wave propagations, and then numerical results are compared with analytical solutions. Finally, a 2D example of fluid-structure interaction under wave dynamic forces provides convincing evidences for the method excellent solution quality and fidelity.展开更多

First, the TV-based model is reformulated as a linear equality constrained problem where the objective function is separable. Then, by introducing the augmented Lagrangian function, the two variables are alternatively minimized by the Gauss-Seidel idea. Finally, the dual variable is updated. Because the approach makes full use of the special structure of the problem and decomposes the original problem into several low-dimensional sub-problems, the per iteration computational complexity of the approach is dominated by two fast Fourier transforms. Elementary experimental results indicate that the proposed approach is more stable and efficient compared with some state-of-the-art algorithms.展开更多

Under the assumption that the augmented Lagrangian function satisfies the Kurdyka-Lojasiewicz inequality, we prove that the sequence generated by the GADMM converges to a critical point of the augmented Lagrangian function when the penalty parameter in the augmented Lagrangian function is sufficiently large. Moreover, we also present some sufficient conditions guaranteeing the sublinear and linear rate of convergence of the algorithm.展开更多

The TC has the advantage of preserving image feature. Unfortunately, it also has the characteristics of nonlinear, non-convex and non-smooth. Consequently, the numerical computation with the curvature regularization is difficult. In order to conquer the computation problem, the proposed model is transformed into an alternating optimization problem by importing auxiliary variables. Furthermore, based on alternating direction method of multipliers, we design a fast numerical approximation iterative scheme for proposed model. Finally, numerous experiments are implemented to indicate the advantages of the proposed model in image edge preserving, image contrast and corners preserving. Meanwhile, the high computational efficiency of the designed model is verified by comparing with traditional models, including the total variation(TV) and total Laplace(TL) model.展开更多
