Learning-to-optimize is an emerging framework that leverages training data to speed up the solution of certain optimization problems. One such approach is based on the classical mirror descent algorithm, where the mirror map is modelled using input-convex neural networks. In this work, we extend this functional parameterization approach by introducing momentum into the iterations, based on the classical accelerated mirror descent. Our approach combines shorttime accelerated convergence with stable long-time behavior. We empirically demonstrate additional robustness with respect to multiple parameters on denoising and deconvolution experiments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
