Understanding Riemannian Acceleration via a Proximal Extragradient Framework

4 Nov 2021  ·  Jikai Jin, Suvrit Sra ·

We contribute to advancing the understanding of Riemannian accelerated gradient methods. In particular, we revisit Accelerated Hybrid Proximal Extragradient(A-HPE), a powerful framework for obtaining Euclidean accelerated methods \citep{monteiro2013accelerated}. Building on A-HPE, we then propose and analyze Riemannian A-HPE. The core of our analysis consists of two key components: (i) a set of new insights into Euclidean A-HPE itself; and (ii) a careful control of metric distortion caused by Riemannian geometry. We illustrate our framework by obtaining a few existing and new Riemannian accelerated gradient methods as special cases, while characterizing their acceleration as corollaries of our main results.
