New optimization scheme for quasar-convex functions detailed in arXiv paper

This paper introduces a random Gaussian smoothing zeroth-order (ZO) scheme for minimizing quasar-convex (QC) and strongly quasar-convex (SQC) functions. The research establishes theoretical convergence guarantees and complexity bounds for both unconstrained and constrained optimization problems. For constrained optimization, the paper defines proximal-quasar-convexity and demonstrates the algorithm's practical application in machine learning tasks such as linear dynamical system identification and generalized linear models.

    Minimisation of Quasar-Convex Functions Using Random Zeroth-Order Oracles

    arXiv:2505.02281v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper explores the performance of a random Gaussian smoothing zeroth-order (ZO) scheme for minimising quasar-convex (QC) and strongly quasar-convex (SQC) functions in both unconstrained and constrained settings. For t…
