Duality between subgradient and conditional gradient methods
Résumé
In this paper, we show the equivalence between mirror descent algorithms and algorithms generalizing the conditional gradient method. This is done through convex duality, and implies notably that for certain problems (such as the support vector machine), the primal subgradient method and the dual conditional gradient method are formally equivalent. The dual interpretation leads to a form of line search for mirror descent, as well as guarantees of convergence for primal-dual certificates.
