+\section{Comparison of the Proximal Decoding and LP Decoding using ADMM algorithms}%
+\label{sec:Comparison of the Proximal Decoding and LP Decoding using ADMM algorithms}
+
+In this section, some similarities between the proximal decoding algorithm
+and \ac{LP} decoding using \ac{ADMM} are be pointed out.
+The two algorithms are compared and their different computational and decoding
+performance is explained on the basis of their theoretical structure.
+
+\ac{ADMM} and the proximal gradient method can both be expressed in terms of
+proximal operators.
+They are both composed of an iterative approach consisting of two
+alternating steps.
+In both cases each step minimizes one distinct part of the objective function.
+The approaches they are based on, however, are fundamentally different.
+In figure \ref{fig:ana:theo_comp_alg} the two algorithms are juxtaposed,
+in conjuction with the optimization problems they are meant to solve, in their
+proximal operator form.%

+\noindent The objective functions of both problems are similar in that they
+both comprise two parts: one associated to the likelihood that a given
+codeword was sent and one associated to the constraints the codeword is
+subjected to.
+Their major difference is that the two parts of the objective minimized with
+proximal decoding are both functions of the same variable
+$\tilde{\boldsymbol{x}}$, whereas with \ac{ADMM} the two parts depend on
+different variables: $\tilde{\boldsymbol{c}}$ and $\boldsymbol{z}$.
+This difference means that while with proximal decoding the alternating
+minimization of the two parts of the objective function inevitably leads to
+oscillatory behaviour (as explained in section (TODO)), this is not the
+case with \ac{ADMM}.
+
+Another aspect partly explaining the disparate decoding performance is the
+difference in the minimization step handling the constraints.
+While with proximal decoding it is performed using gradient
+descent - amounting to an approximation - with \ac{ADMM} it reduces to a
+number of projections onto the parity polytopes $\mathcal{P}_{d_j}$ - which
+always provide exact results.
+
+\begin{itemize}
+    \item The comparison of actual implementations is always debatable /
+        contentious, since it is difficult to separate differences in
+        algorithm performance from differences in implementation
+    \item No large difference in computational performance $\rightarrow$
+        Parallelism cannot come to fruition as decoding is performed on the
+        same number of cores for both algorithms (Multiple decodings in parallel)
+    \item Nonetheless, in realtime applications / applications where the focus
+        is not the mass decoding of raw data, \ac{ADMM} has advantages, since
+        the decoding of a single codeword is performed faster
+    \item \ac{ADMM} faster than proximal decoding $\rightarrow$
+        Parallelism
+    \item Proximal decoding faster than \ac{ADMM} $\rightarrow$ dafuq
+        (larger number of iterations before convergence?)
