Feasibility problem aims to find a common point of two or more closed (convex) sets whose intersection is nonempty. In the literature, projection based algorithms are widely adopted to solve the problem, such as the method of alternating…
Nonlinear programming is explicitly analyzed via a novel perspective/method and from a bottom-up manner. The philosophy is based on the recent findings on convex quadratic equation (CQE), which help clarify a geometric interpretation that…
Under conditions that prevent tangential intersection, we prove quadratic convergence of a projection algorithm for the feasibility problem of finding a point in the intersection of a smooth curve and line in $\mathbb{R}^2$. This nonconvex…
We investigate autonomous mobile robots in the Euclidean plane. A robot has a function called target function to decide the destination from the robots' positions. Robots may have different target functions. If the robots whose target…
Optimal power flow (OPF) is a central problem in the operation of electric power systems. An OPF problem optimizes a specified objective function subject to constraints imposed by both the non-linear power flow equations and engineering…
The data-compatibility approach to constrained optimization, proposed here, strives to a point that is "close enough" to the solution set and whose target function value is "close enough" to the constrained minimum value. These notions can…
The 2-sets convex feasibility problem aims at finding a point in the intersection of two closed convex sets $A$ and $B$ in a normed space $X$. More generally, we can consider the problem of finding (if possible) two points in $A$ and $B$,…
Approximations of functions with finite data often do not respect certain "structural" properties of the functions. For example, if a given function is non-negative, a polynomial approximation of the function is not necessarily also…
There are different solution concepts for convex vector optimization problems (CVOPs) and a recent one, which is motivated from a set optimization point of view, consists of finitely many efficient solutions that generate polyhedral inner…
In this paper, we consider convex feasibility problems where the underlying sets are loosely coupled, and we propose several algorithms to solve such problems in a distributed manner. These algorithms are obtained by applying proximal…
We study how the supporting hyperplanes produced by the projection process can complement the method of alternating projections and its variants for the convex set intersection problem. For the problem of finding the closest point in the…
We present a novel feasibility criteria for the finite intersection of convex sets given by inequalities. This criteria allows us to easily assert the feasibility by analyzing the unconstrained minimum of a speci?fic convex function, that…
The classical multi-set split feasibility problem seeks a point in the intersection of finitely many closed convex domain constraints, whose image under a linear mapping also lies in the intersection of finitely many closed convex range…
The control flow graph (CFG) representation of a procedure used by virtually all flow-sensitive program analyses, admits a large number of infeasible control flow paths i.e., these paths do not occur in any execution of the program. Hence…
Conformal Prediction (CP) is a widely used technique for quantifying uncertainty in machine learning models. In its standard form, CP offers probabilistic guarantees on the coverage of the true label, but it is agnostic to sensitive…
This paper improves the algorithms based on supporting halfspaces and quadratic programming for convex set intersection problems in our earlier paper in several directions. First, we give conditions so that much smaller quadratic programs…
Quadratically constrained quadratic programs (QCQPs) have a wide range of applications in signal processing and wireless communications. Non-convex QCQPs are NP-hard in general. Existing approaches relax the non-convexity using…
In this paper, we studied the equilibrium problem where the bi-function may be quasiconvex with respect to the second variable and the feasible set is the intersection of a finite number of convex sets. We propose a projection-algorithm,…

A subgradient method is presented for solving general convex optimization problems, the main requirement being that a strictly-feasible point is known. A feasible sequence of iterates is generated, which converges to within user-specified…
