# A stochastic linearized proximal method of multipliers for convex stochastic optimization with expectation constraints

22 Jun 2021  ·  , , , ·

This paper considers the problem of minimizing a convex expectation function with a set of inequality convex expectation constraints. We present a computable stochastic approximation type algorithm, namely the stochastic linearized proximal method of multipliers, to solve this convex stochastic optimization problem... This algorithm can be roughly viewed as a hybrid of stochastic approximation and the traditional proximal method of multipliers. Under mild conditions, we show that this algorithm exhibits $O(K^{-1/2})$ expected convergence rates for both objective reduction and constraint violation if parameters in the algorithm are properly chosen, where $K$ denotes the number of iterations. Moreover, we show that, with high probability, the algorithm has $O(\log(K)K^{-1/2})$ constraint violation bound and $O(\log^{3/2}(K)K^{-1/2})$ objective bound. Some preliminary numerical results demonstrate the performance of the proposed algorithm. read more
