ADMM for 0/1 D-Opt and MESP relaxations

Optimization and Control 2025-03-26 v2

Abstract

The 0/1 D-optimality problem and the Maximum-Entropy Sampling problem are two well-known NP-hard discrete maximization problems in experimental design. Algorithms for exact optimization (of moderate-sized instances) are based on branch-and-bound. The best upper-bounding methods are based on convex relaxation. We present ADMM (Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers) algorithms for solving these relaxations and experimentally demonstrate their practical value.
