We develop a novel variant of the classical Frank-Wolfe algorithm, which we call spectral Frank-Wolfe, for convex optimization over a spectrahedron. The spectral Frank-Wolfe algorithm has a novel ingredient: it computes a few eigenvectors of the gradient and solves a small-scale SDP in each iteration. Such procedure overcomes slow convergence of the classical Frank-Wolfe algorithm due to ignoring eigenvalue coalescence. We demonstrate that strict complementarity of the optimization problem is key to proving linear convergence of various algorithms, such as the spectral Frank-Wolfe algorithm as well as the projected gradient method and its accelerated version.

We study the properties of the Frank-Wolfe algorithm to solve the m-EXACT-SPARSE reconstruction problem, where a signal y must be expressed as a sparse linear combination of a predefined set of atoms, called dictionary. We prove that when the signal
is sparse enough with respect to the coherence of the dictionary, then the iterative process implemented by the Frank-Wolfe algorithm only recruits atoms from the support of the signal, that is the smallest set of atoms from the dictionary that allows for a perfect reconstruction of y. We also prove that under this same condition, there exists an iteration beyond which the algorithm converges exponentially.
We derive global convergence bounds for the Frank Wolfe algorithm when training one hidden layer neural networks. When using the ReLU activation function, and under tractable preconditioning assumptions on the sample data set, the linear minimization
oracle used to incrementally form the solution can be solved explicitly as a second order cone program. The classical Frank Wolfe algorithm then converges with rate $O(1/T)$ where $T$ is both the number of neurons and the number of calls to the oracle.
This paper proposes a new variant of Frank-Wolfe (FW), called $k$FW. Standard FW suffers from slow convergence: iterates often zig-zag as update directions oscillate around extreme points of the constraint set. The new variant, $k$FW, overcomes this
problem by using two stronger subproblem oracles in each iteration. The first is a $k$ linear optimization oracle ($k$LOO) that computes the $k$ best update directions (rather than just one). The second is a $k$ direction search ($k$DS) that minimizes the objective over a constraint set represented by the $k$ best update directions and the previous iterate. When the problem solution admits a sparse representation, both oracles are easy to compute, and $k$FW converges quickly for smooth convex objectives and several interesting constraint sets: $k$FW achieves finite $frac{4L_f^3D^4}{gammadelta^2}$ convergence on polytopes and group norm balls, and linear convergence on spectrahedra and nuclear norm balls. Numerical experiments validate the effectiveness of $k$FW and demonstrate an order-of-magnitude speedup over existing approaches.
We study projection-free methods for constrained Riemannian optimization. In particular, we propose the Riemannian Frank-Wolfe (RFW) method. We analyze non-asymptotic convergence rates of RFW to an optimum for (geodesically) convex problems, and to a
critical point for nonconvex objectives. We also present a practical setting under which RFW can attain a linear convergence rate. As a concrete example, we specialize Rfw to the manifold of positive definite matrices and apply it to two tasks: (i) computing the matrix geometric mean (Riemannian centroid); and (ii) computing the Bures-Wasserstein barycenter. Both tasks involve geodesically convex interval constraints, for which we show that the Riemannian linear oracle required by RFW admits a closed-form solution; this result may be of independent interest. We further specialize RFW to the special orthogonal group and show that here too, the Riemannian linear oracle can be solved in closed form. Here, we describe an application to the synchronization of data matrices (Procrustes problem). We complement our theoretical results with an empirical comparison of Rfw against state-of-the-art Riemannian optimization methods and observe that RFW performs competitively on the task of computing Riemannian centroids.
We unveil the connections between Frank Wolfe (FW) type algorithms and the momentum in Accelerated Gradient Methods (AGM). On the negative side, these connections illustrate why momentum is unlikely to be effective for FW type algorithms. The encoura
ging message behind this link, on the other hand, is that momentum is useful for FW on a class of problems. In particular, we prove that a momentum variant of FW, that we term accelerated Frank Wolfe (AFW), converges with a faster rate $tilde{cal O}(frac{1}{k^2})$ on certain constraint sets despite the same ${cal O}(frac{1}{k})$ rate as FW on general cases. Given the possible acceleration of AFW at almost no extra cost, it is thus a competitive alternative to FW. Numerical experiments on benchmarked machine learning tasks further validate our theoretical findings.
