| Summary: | The alternating direction method is one of the attractive approaches for solving convex optimization problems with linear constraints and separable objective functions. Experience with applications has shown that the number of iterations depends significantly on the penalty parameter for the linear constraint. The penalty parameters in the classical alternating direction method are a constant. In this paper, an improved alternating direction method is proposed, which not only adaptively adjusts the penalty parameters per iteration based on the iteration message but also adds relaxation factors to the Lagrange multiplier update steps. Preliminary numerical experiments show that the technique of adaptive adjusting of the penalty parameters per iteration and attaching relaxation factors in the Lagrange multiplier updating steps are effective in practical applications. |
