ABSTRACT:
A novel dynamical inertial Newton system, which is called Hessian-driven Nesterov accelerated gradient (H-NAG) flow is proposed. Convergence of the continuous trajectory are established via tailored Lyapunov function, and new first-order accelerated optimization methods are proposed from ODE solvers. It is shown that (semi-)implicit schemes can always achieve linear rate and explicit schemes have the optimal(accelerated) rates for convex and strongly convex objectives. In particular, Nesterov's optimal method is recovered from an explicit scheme for our H-NAG flow. Furthermore, accelerated splitting algorithms for composite optimization problems are also developed.
