AbstractLet f : R s → R be a real-valued function, and let x = (x 1 ,...,x s ) T ∈ R s be partitioned into t subsets of non-overlapping variables as x = (X 1 ,...,X t ) T , with X i ∈ R p i for i = 1,...,t, Σ i=1 t p i = s. Alternating optimization (AO) is an iterative procedure for minimizing f(x) = f(X 1 , X 2 ,..., X t ) jointly over all variables by alternating restricted minimizations over the individual subsets of variables X 1 ,...., X t . Alternating optimization has been (more or less) studied and used in a wide variety of areas. Here a self-contained and general convergence theory is presented that is applicable to all partitionings of x. Under reasonable assumptions, the general AO approach is shown to be locally, q-linearly convergent, and to also exhibit a type of global convergence.
