New algorithms offer improved convergence for mean-field min-max problems

Researchers have developed two variants of the mirror descent-ascent (MDA) algorithm to address min-max problems within the space of measures. The study establishes non-asymptotic convergence rates for both simultaneous and alternating MDA, with the alternating version showing improved performance. A key technical contribution involves an infinite-dimensional dual space analysis that connects Bregman divergences on measures to those on bounded continuous functions, enabling better control over alternating update terms.

    Mirror Descent-Ascent for mean-field min-max problems

    arXiv:2402.08106v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study two variants of the mirror descent-ascent (MDA) algorithm for solving min-max problems on the space of measures: simultaneous and alternating. We work under assumptions of convexity-concavity and relative smoothne…
