Abstract

In this paper, we focus on the primal-dual hybrid gradient (PDHG) method, which is being widely used to solve a broad spectrum of saddle-point problems. Despite of its wide applications in different areas, the study of inexact versions of PDHG still seems to be in its infancy. We investigate how to design implementable inexactness criteria for solving the subproblems in PDHG scheme so that the convergence of an inexact PDHG can be guaranteed. We propose two specific inexactness criteria and accordingly some inexact PDHG methods for saddle-point problems. The convergence of both inexact PDHG methods is rigorously proved, and their convergence rates are estimated under different scenarios. Moreover, some numerical results on image restoration problems are reported to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed methods.
