SUMMARY:Continuous Optimization Seminar - Julian Romero
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:TITLE: Coordinate Descent Algorithms\n\nSpeaker:\n Julian Rome
 ro\n\nAffiliation:\n University of Waterloo\n\nRoom:\n MC 5479\n\nABSTRACT
 :\n\nWe will be discussing the survey of Stephen J. Wright on coordinate\n
 descent algorithms. Coordinate descent algorithms solve optimization\npro
 blems by successively performing approximate minimization along\ncoordinat
 e directions or coordinate hyperplanes. They have been used\nin applicatio
 ns for many years\, and their popularity continues to grow\nbecause of the
 ir usefulness in data analysis\, machine learning\, and\nother areas of cu
 rrent interest.
