Semidefinite relaxations are widely used to compute upper bounds on the objective of optimization problems involving noncommutative polynomials. Such optimization problems are prevalent in quantum information. We present an algorithm able…
In this paper we study various approaches for exploiting symmetries in polynomial optimization problems within the framework of semi definite programming relaxations. Our special focus is on constrained problems especially when the…
We introduce a sublevel Moment-SOS hierarchy where each SDP relaxation can be viewed as an intermediate (or interpolation) between the d-th and (d+1)-th order SDP relaxations of the Moment-SOS hierarchy (dense or sparse version). With the…
Semidefinite programs (SDPs) often arise in relaxations of some NP-hard problems, and if the solution of the SDP obeys certain rank constraints, the relaxation will be tight. Decomposition methods based on chordal sparsity have already been…
Sparsity-constrained optimization underlies many problems in signal processing, statistics, and machine learning. State-of-the-art hard-thresholding (HT) algorithms rely on an appropriately selected continuous step-size parameter to ensure…
We report the experimental results on certifying 1% global optimality of solutions of AC-OPF instances from PGLiB via the CS-TSSOS hierarchy -- a moment-SOS based hierarchy that exploits both correlative and term sparsity, which can provide…
We explore a new type of sparsity for the generalized moment problem (GMP) that we call ideal-sparsity. This sparsity exploits the presence of equality constraints requiring the measure to be supported on the variety of an ideal generated…
We consider a new hierarchy of semidefinite relaxations for the general polynomial optimization problem $(P):\:f^{\ast}=\min \{\,f(x):x\in K\,\}$ on a compact basic semi-algebraic set $K\subset\R^n$. This hierarchy combines some advantages…
Sparse estimation methods are aimed at using or obtaining parsimonious representations of data or models. They were first dedicated to linear variable selection but numerous extensions have now emerged such as structured sparsity or kernel…
Recent results in compressed sensing show that, under certain conditions, the sparsest solution to an underdetermined set of linear equations can be recovered by solving a linear program. These results either rely on computing sparse…
We consider polynomial optimization problems (POP) on a semialgebraic set contained in the nonnegative orthant (every POP on a compact set can be put in this format by a simple translation of the origin). Such a POP can be converted to an…
We consider the sparse optimization problem with nonlinear constraints and an objective function, which is given by the sum of a general smooth mapping and an additional term defined by the $ \ell_0 $-quasi-norm. This term is used to obtain…
Sparsity-based methods are widely used in machine learning, statistics, and signal processing. There is now a rich class of structured sparsity approaches that expand the modeling power of the sparsity paradigm and incorporate constraints…
AC-OPF (Alternative Current Optimal Power Flow)aims at minimizing the operating costs of a power gridunder physical constraints on voltages and power injections.Its mathematical formulation results in a nonconvex polynomial…
We study T-semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxation for constrained polynomial optimization problems (POPs). T-SDP relaxation for unconstrained POPs was introduced by Zheng, Huang and Hu in 2022. In this work, we propose a T-SDP relaxation…
The paper deals with the problem of finding sparse solutions to systems of polynomial equations possibly perturbed by noise. In particular, we show how these solutions can be recovered from group-sparse solutions of a derived system of…
This paper treats the problem of minimizing a general continuously differentiable function subject to sparsity constraints. We present and analyze several different optimality criteria which are based on the notions of stationarity and…
Estimation of a sparse spectral precision matrix, the inverse of a spectral density matrix, is a canonical problem in frequency-domain analysis of high-dimensional time series (HDTS), with applications in neurosciences and environmental…
Many problems of substantial current interest in machine learning, statistics, and data science can be formulated as sparse and low-rank optimization problems. In this paper, we present the nonconvex exterior-point optimization solver NExOS…
Many high dimensional sparse learning problems are formulated as nonconvex optimization. A popular approach to solve these nonconvex optimization problems is through convex relaxations such as linear and semidefinite programming. In this…
