New algorithm finds stationary points in non-convex functions · 2 sources tracked

Researchers have developed a new algorithm for finding stationary points in non-convex functions using a comparison oracle. The algorithm requires approximately \(\\tilde O(n^2/\epsilon^{1.5})\) queries for a function with a Lipschitz gradient and Hessian. Additionally, a quantum algorithm has been proposed that can find an \(\epsilon\)-stationary point with significantly fewer queries, taking \(\tilde O(n/\epsilon^{1.5})\) queries in a quantum comparison oracle model.

    Finding Stationary Points by Comparisons

    arXiv:2606.27082v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the problem of finding stationary points of non-convex functions when access to the objective is provided only through a comparison oracle that, given two points, outputs which has the larger function value. For a twice dif…
