• Abstract: Best subset selection is considered the `gold standard' for many sparse learning problems. A variety of optimization techniques have been proposed to attack this non-smooth non-convex problem. In this paper, we investigate the dual forms of a family of $\ell_0$-regularized problems. An efficient primal-dual algorithm is developed based on the primal and dual problem structures. By leveraging the dual range estimation along with the incremental strategy, our algorithm potentially reduces redundant computation and improves the solutions of best subset selection. Theoretical analysis and experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets validate the efficiency and statistical properties of the proposed solutions.

  The integration of constrained optimization models as components in deep networks has led to promising advances on many specialized learning tasks. A central challenge in this setting is backpropagation through the solution of an optimization problem, which often lacks a closed form. This paper provides theoretical insights into the backward pass of unrolled optimization, showing that it is equivalent to the solution of a linear system by a particular iterative method. A system called Folded Optimization is proposed to construct more efficient backpropagation rules from unrolled solver implementations.

  This paper presents a method to solve nonlinear integer multiobjective optimization problems. First, the problem is formulated using the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) Next, the Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm in its three versions (standard DE, DEGL, DEGL) are used as DE best and DEGL. Since the solutions found by the DE algorithms are continuous, the Tabu Search (TS) algorithm is employed to find integer solutions during the optimization process.
