- Abstract: Bilevel optimization has been widely applied many machine learning problems
such as hyperparameter optimization, policy optimization and meta learning.
Although many bilevel optimization methods more recently have been proposed to
solve the bilevel optimization problems, they still suffer from high
computational complexities and do not consider the more general bilevel
problems with nonsmooth regularization. In the paper, thus, we propose a class
of efficient bilevel optimization methods based on Bregman distance. In our
methods, we use the mirror decent iteration to solve the outer subproblem of
the bilevel problem by using strongly-convex Bregman functions. Specifically,
we propose a bilevel optimization method based on Bregman distance (BiO-BreD)
for solving deterministic bilevel problems, which reaches the lower
computational complexities than the best known results. We also propose a
stochastic bilevel optimization method (SBiO-BreD) for solving stochastic
bilevel problems based on the stochastic approximated gradients and Bregman
distance. Further, we propose an accelerated version of SBiO-BreD method
(ASBiO-BreD) by using the variance-reduced technique. Moreover, we prove that
the ASBiO-BreD outperforms the best known computational complexities with
respect to the condition number $\kappa$ and the target accuracy $\epsilon$ for
finding an $\epsilon$-stationary point of nonconvex-strongly-convex bilevel
problems. In particular, our methods can solve the bilevel optimization
problems with nonsmooth regularization with a lower computational complexity.
