• Abstract: Optimizing machine learning algorithms that are used to solve the objective function has been of great interest. Several approaches to optimize common algorithms, such as gradient descent and stochastic gradient descent, were explored. One of these approaches is reducing the gradient variance through adaptive sampling to solve large-scale optimization's empirical risk minimization (ERM) problems. In this paper, we will explore how starting with a small sample and then geometrically increasing it and using the solution of the previous sample ERM to compute the new ERM. This will solve ERM problems with first-order optimization algorithms of sublinear convergence but with lower computational complexity. This paper starts with theoretical proof of the approach, followed by two experiments comparing the gradient descent with the adaptive sampling of the gradient descent and ADAM with adaptive sampling ADAM on different datasets.

To improve the gradient, we replace the classic sampling method based on Rademacher and show that the mini-batch method copes with non-Eucli geometry.

  Annealed importance sampling (AIS) and related algorithms are highly effective tools for marginal likelihood estimation. Differentiability is a desirable property as it would admit the possibility of optimizing marginal likelihood as an objective. We propose a differentiable algorithm by abandoning Metropolis-Hastings steps, which further unlocks mini-batch computation.

  In sparse estimation, such as fused lasso and convex clustering, we apply either the proximal gradient method or the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) to solve the problem. This paper proposes a general method for converting the ADMM solution to the proximal gradient method, assuming that the constraints and objectives are strongly convex. We show by numerical experiments that we can obtain a significant improvement in terms of efficiency.
