Potential-Function Proofs for First-Order Methods

13 Dec 2017  ·  Nikhil Bansal, Anupam Gupta ·

This note discusses proofs for convergence of first-order methods based on simple potential-function arguments. We cover methods like gradient descent (for both smooth and non-smooth settings), mirror descent, and some accelerated variants.
