Active set strategy for high-dimensional non-convex sparse optimization problems

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The use of non-convex sparse regularization has attracted much interest when estimating a very sparse model on high dimensional data. In this work we express the optimality conditions of the optimization problem for a large class of non-convex regularizers. From those conditions, we derive an efficient active set strategy that avoids the computing of unnecessary gradients. Numerical experiments on both generated and real life datasets show a clear gain in computational cost w.r.t. the state of the art when using our method to obtain very sparse solutions.
