Multilevel Bregman Proximal Gradient Descent

Abstract

We present the Multilevel Bregman Proximal Gradient Descent (ML BPGD) method, a novel multilevel optimization framework tailored to constrained convex problems with relative Lipschitz smoothness. Our approach extends the classical multilevel optimization framework (MGOPT) to handle Bregman-based geometries and constrained domains. We provide a rigorous analysis of ML BPGD for multiple coarse levels and establish a global linear convergence rate. We demonstrate the effectiveness of ML BPGD in the context of image reconstruction, providing theoretical guarantees for the well-posedness of the multilevel framework and validating its performance through numerical experiments.
