New framework unifies non-convex optimization beyond existing models

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have introduced a new framework called $\gamma$-weakly $\theta$-up-concavity, designed to unify non-convex optimization problems. This framework extends existing concepts like DR-submodular and OSS functions, allowing for curvature that changes with solution size. The proposed method utilizes a surrogate gradient and establishes an upper-linearization inequality, leading to approximation algorithms for offline scenarios and regret guarantees for online algorithms.

    $\gamma$-weakly $\theta$-up-concavity: A Unified Framework for Non-Convex Optimization Beyond DR-Submodular and OSS Functions

    arXiv:2602.13506v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Many objectives in machine learning and combinatorial optimization are non-concave. We introduce $\gamma$-weak $\theta$-up-concavity, a first-order condition for nonnegative monotone functions in which a scaling function $…
