Researchers have developed a new randomized iterative method called the Sequential Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient Method (SPCG) for solving ordinary least-squares estimation problems in large-scale linear statistical models. This method constructs a series of smaller, sketched subproblems that are solved sequentially, with each subproblem benefiting from the solution of the previous one. This approach significantly reduces computational cost by performing most iterations on these smaller subproblems before a final refinement on the full-scale problem. The method's convergence theory is established, proving it can achieve optimal prediction accuracy with improved efficiency compared to existing methods like full-data PCG and Iterative Double Sketching (IDS).
