+## ADMM
+This repository contains code that implements ADMM in Python 3 (alternating direction method of multipliers), AMA (alternating minimization algorithm), and their faster variants as outlined in the paper "Fast Alternating Direction Optimization Methods" (Goldstein et. al, 2014)
+
+There is a report attached that contains several theoretical proofs, simulation results, and analysis of the algorithm by taking inspiration from the paper above. It also discusses other related ideas.
+This work was done as part of the course "Convex Optimization" at IIT Kanpur.
