• Abstract: We consider a class of structured fractional minimization problems, where the numerator includes a differentiable function, a simple nonconvex nonsmooth function, a concave nonsmooth function, and a convex nonsmooth function composed with a linear operator, while the denominator is a continuous function that is either weakly convex or has a weakly convex square root. These problems are widespread and span numerous essential applications in machine learning and data science. Existing methods are mainly based on subgradient methods and smoothing proximal gradient methods, which may suffer from slow convergence and numerical stability issues. In this paper, we introduce {\sf FADMM}, the first Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers tailored for this class of problems. {\sf FADMM} decouples the original problem into linearized proximal subproblems, featuring two variants: one using Dinkelbach's parametric method ({\sf FADMM-D}) and the other using the quadratic transform method ({\sf FADMM-Q}). By introducing a novel Lyapunov function, we establish that {\sf FADMM} converges to $\epsilon$-approximate critical points of the problem within an oracle complexity of $\mathcal{O}(1/\epsilon^{3})$. Our experiments on synthetic and real-world data for sparse Fisher discriminant analysis, robust Sharpe ratio minimization, and robust sparse recovery demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach. Keywords: Fractional Minimization, Nonconvex Optimization, Proximal Linearized ADMM, Nonsmooth Optimization, Convergence Analysis

We operate a non-weighted but smooth overparametrization of the underlying nonsmooth optimization problems. Our main contribution is to apply the Variable Projection (VarPro) which defines a new formulation by explicitly minimizing over part of the variables.

We next develop a branch-and-bound (BnB) algorithm which only branches over the transformation variables and runs efficiently.
