Greedy randomized sampling nonlinear Kaczmarz methods

The nonlinear Kaczmarz method was recently proposed to solve the system of nonlinear equations. In this paper, we first discuss two greedy selection rules, i.e., the maximum residual and maximum distance rules, for the nonlinear Kaczmarz iteration. Then, based on them, two kinds of greedy randomized sampling methods are presented. Further, we also devise four corresponding greedy randomized block methods, i.e., the multiple samples-based methods. The linear convergence in expectation of all the proposed methods is proved. Numerical results show that, in some applications including brown almost linear function and generalized linear model, the greedy selection rules give faster convergence rates than the random ones, and the block methods outperform the single sample-based ones.
