Description
Gradient computation of multivariate distribution functions calls for a considerable effort. Hence coordinate descent and derivative-free approaches are attractive. This talk deals with constrained convex problems. We perform random descent steps in an approximation scheme that is an inexact cutting-plane method from a dual viewpoint. We prove that the scheme converges and present a computational study comparing different descent methods applied in the approximation scheme.
