The proposed Sparsity-Constraint Optimization via sPlicing itEration (SCOPE) algorithm efficiently optimizes nonlinear differential objective functions with strong convexity and smoothness in low-dimensional subspaces, eliminating the need for tuning parameters. SCOPE converges effectively without parameter tuning, boasting a linear convergence rate and recovering the true support set when correctly specifying sparsity. The algorithm’s versatility is demonstrated by successfully solving sparse quadratic optimization, learning sparse classifiers, and recovering sparse Markov networks for binary variables. Numerical results show SCOPE perfectly identifies the true support set with a 10-1000 speedup over the standard exact solver.

SCOPE is an efficient algorithm that solves problems in signal processing, statistics, and machine learning. It’s like a superpower for your computer! The problem it solves is finding the best answer when some parts of the question are missing or unknown. SCOPE makes this process faster and better than other methods. People can use it to find the best answers quickly and accurately.
