A General Self-Adaptive Relaxed-PPA Method for Convex Programming with Linear Constraints

We present an efficient method for solving linearly constrained convex programming. Our algorithmic framework employs an implementable proximal step by a slight relaxation to the subproblem of proximal point algorithm (PPA). In particular, the stepsize choice condition of our algorithm is weaker tha...
