Researchers propose novel second-order method for Stiefel manifold optimization

Researchers have developed a novel second-order optimization method for the Stiefel manifold that avoids retractions, offering improved efficiency for high-accuracy requirements. This method combines a tangent component to reduce the objective function and a normal component, constructed using the Newton-Schulz iteration for orthogonalization, to decrease infeasibility. Numerical experiments demonstrated superior performance compared to existing methods on problems like orthogonal Procrustes and principal component analysis. AI
