Perturbed projections and subgradient projections for the multiple-sets split feasibility problem

AbstractWe study the multiple-sets split feasibility problem that requires to find a point closest to a family of closed convex sets in one space such that its image under a linear transformation will be closest to another family of closed convex sets in the image space. By casting the problem into an equivalent problem in a suitable product space we are able to present a simultaneous subgradients projections algorithm that generates convergent sequences of iterates in the feasible case. We further derive and analyze a perturbed projection method for the multiple-sets split feasibility problem and, additionally, furnish alternative proofs to two known results
