Black-box problems are common in real life like structural design, drug experiments, and machine learning. When optimizing black-box systems, decision-makers always consider multiple performances and give the final decision by comprehensive…
A convex relaxation of a quadratically constrained quadratic program (QCQP) is called exact if it has a rank-$1$ optimal solution that corresponds to an optimal solution of the QCQP. Given a QCQP whose convex relaxation is exact, this paper…
