  text: Two popular examples of first-order optimization methods over linear spaces
    are coordinate descent and matching pursuit algorithms, with their randomized
    variants. While the former targets the optimization by moving along coordinates,
    the latter considers a generalized notion of directions. Exploiting the connection
    between the two algorithms, we present a unified analysis of both, providing affine
    invariant sublinear O(1/t) rates on smooth objectives and linear convergence on
    strongly convex objectives. As a byproduct of our affine invariant analysis of
    matching pursuit, our rates for steepest coordinate descent are the tightest known.
    Furthermore, we show the first accelerated convergence rate O(1/t2) for matching
    pursuit and steepest coordinate descent on convex objectives.
