This module implements solver objects who minimize an objective function. Call
:func:`solve` to solve your convex optimization problem using your instantiated
solver and functions objects. The :class:`solver` base class defines the
interface of all solver objects. The specialized solver objects inherit from
it and implement the class methods. The following solvers are included :
* :class:`gradient_descent`: Gradient descent algorithm.
* :class:`forward_backward`: Forward-backward proximal splitting algorithm.
* :class:`douglas_rachford`: Douglas-Rachford proximal splitting algorithm.
* :class:`generalized_forward_backward`: Generalized Forward-Backward.
* :class:`primal_dual`: Primal-dual algorithms.
* :class:`mlfbf`: Monotone+Lipschitz Forward-Backward-Forward primal-dual
algorithm.
* :class:`projection_based`: Projection-based primal-dual algorithm.

r"""
Solve an optimization problem whose objective function is the sum of some
convex functions.
This function minimizes the objective function :math:`f(x) =
\sum\limits_{k=0}^{k=K} f_k(x)`, i.e. solves
:math:`\operatorname{arg\,min}\limits_x f(x)` for :math:`x \in
\mathbb{R}^{n \times N}` where :math:`n` is the dimensionality of the data
and :math:`N` the number of independent problems. It returns a dictionary
with the found solution and some informations about the algorithm
execution.
Parameters
----------
functions : list of objects
A list of convex functions to minimize. These are objects who must
implement the :meth:`pyunlocbox.functions.func.eval` method. The
:meth:`pyunlocbox.functions.func.grad` and / or
:meth:`pyunlocbox.functions.func.prox` methods are required by some
solvers. Note also that some solvers can only handle two convex
functions while others may handle more. Please refer to the
documentation of the considered solver.
x0 : array_like
Starting point of the algorithm, :math:`x_0 \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times
N}`. Note that if you pass a numpy array it will be modified in place
during execution to save memory. It will then contain the solution. Be
careful to pass data of the type (int, float32, float64) you want your
computations to use.
solver : solver class instance, optional
The solver algorithm. It is an object who must inherit from
:class:`pyunlocbox.solvers.solver` and implement the :meth:`_pre`,
:meth:`_algo` and :meth:`_post` methods. If no solver object are
provided, a standard one will be chosen given the number of convex
function objects and their implemented methods.
atol : float, optional
The absolute tolerance stopping criterion. The algorithm stops when
:math:`f(x^t) < atol` where :math:`f(x^t)` is the objective function at
iteration :math:`t`. Default is None.
dtol : float, optional
Stop when the objective function is stable enough, i.e. when
:math:`\left|f(x^t) - f(x^{t-1})\right| < dtol`. Default is None.
rtol : float, optional
The relative tolerance stopping criterion. The algorithm stops when
:math:`\left|\frac{ f(x^t) - f(x^{t-1}) }{ f(x^t) }\right| < rtol`.
Default is :math:`10^{-3}`.
xtol : float, optional
Stop when the variable is stable enough, i.e. when :math:`\frac{\|x^t -
x^{t-1}\|_2}{\sqrt{n N}} < xtol`. Note that additional memory will be
used to store :math:`x^{t-1}`. Default is None.
maxit : int, optional
The maximum number of iterations. Default is 200.
verbosity : {'NONE', 'LOW', 'HIGH', 'ALL'}, optional
The log level : ``'NONE'`` for no log, ``'LOW'`` for resume at
convergence, ``'HIGH'`` for info at all solving steps, ``'ALL'`` for
all possible outputs, including at each steps of the proximal operators
computation. Default is ``'LOW'``.
Returns
-------
sol : ndarray
The problem solution.
solver : str
The used solver.
crit : {'ATOL', 'DTOL', 'RTOL', 'XTOL', 'MAXIT'}
The used stopping criterion. See above for definitions.
niter : int
The number of iterations.
time : float
The execution time in seconds.
objective : ndarray
The successive evaluations of the objective function at each iteration.

Defines the solver object interface.
This class defines the interface of a solver object intended to be passed
to the :func:`pyunlocbox.solvers.solve` solving function. It is intended to
be a base class for standard solvers which will implement the required
methods. It can also be instantiated by user code and dynamically modified
for rapid testing. This class also defines the generic attributes of all
solver objects.
Parameters
----------
step : float
The gradient-descent step-size. This parameter is bounded by 0 and
:math:`\frac{2}{\beta}` where :math:`\beta` is the Lipschitz constant
of the gradient of the smooth function (or a sum of smooth functions).
Default is 1.

and solution while the algorithm is running. Default is a dummy
object that returns unchanged values.

:math:`g` second, and :math:`h` third.
This algorithm requires the first two functions to implement the
:meth:`pyunlocbox.functions.func.prox` method, and the third function to
implement the :meth:`pyunlocbox.functions.func.grad` method.
The step-size should be in the interval :math:`\left] 0, \frac{1}{\beta +
\|L\|_{2}}\right[`.
See :cite:`komodakis2015primaldual`, Algorithm 6, for details.

Projection-based primal-dual algorithm.
This algorithm solves convex optimization problems with objective of the
form :math:`f(x) + g(Lx)`, where :math:`f` and :math:`g` are proper,
convex, lower-semicontinuous functions with easy-to-compute proximity
operators.
See generic attributes descriptions of the
:class:`pyunlocbox.solvers.primal_dual` base class.
Parameters
----------
lambda_ : float, optional
The update term weight. It should be between 0 and 2. Default is 1.
Notes
-----
The order of the functions matters: set :math:`f` first on the list, and
:math:`g` second.
This algorithm requires the two functions to implement the
:meth:`pyunlocbox.functions.func.prox` method.
The step-size should be in the interval :math:`\left] 0, \infty \right[`.
See :cite:`komodakis2015primaldual`, Algorithm 7, for details.
