The alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is a popular method for solving convex separable minimization problems with linear equality constraints. The generalization of the two-block ADMM to the three-block ADMM is not trivial…
Asadpour, Feige, and Saberi proved that the integrality gap of the configuration LP for the restricted max-min allocation problem is at most $4$. However, their proof does not give a polynomial-time approximation algorithm. A lot of efforts…
We propose a new splitting and successively solving augmented Lagrangian (SSAL) method for solving an optimization problem with both semicontinuous variables and a cardinality constraint. This optimization problem arises in several contexts…
Many inverse and parameter estimation problems can be written as PDE-constrained optimization problems. The goal, then, is to infer the parameters, typically coefficients of the PDE, from partial measurements of the solutions of the PDE for…
We consider a class of sparse learning problems in high dimensional feature space regularized by a structured sparsity-inducing norm which incorporates prior knowledge of the group structure of the features. Such problems often pose a…
Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) have become a prominent application of deep learning in scientific computation, as they are powerful approximators of solutions to nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). There have been…
Models involving hybrid systems are versatile in their application but difficult to optimize efficiently due to their combinatorial nature. This work presents a method to cope with hybrid optimal control problems which, in contrast to…

Lagrangian duality in mixed integer optimization is a useful framework for problems decomposition and for producing tight lower bounds to the optimal objective, but in contrast to the convex counterpart, it is generally unable to produce…
We propose a new fast algorithm for solving one of the standard approaches to ill-posed linear inverse problems (IPLIP), where a (possibly non-smooth) regularizer is minimized under the constraint that the solution explains the observations…
In this paper, we consider the problem of distributed optimisation of a separable convex cost function over a graph, where every edge and node in the graph could carry both linear equality and/or inequality constraints. We show how to…
In this paper we investigate how standard nonlinear programming algorithms can be used to solve constrained optimization problems in a distributed manner. The optimization setup consists of a set of agents interacting through a…
Lagrangian decomposition (LD) is a relaxation method that provides a dual bound for constrained optimization problems by decomposing them into more manageable sub-problems. This bound can be used in branch-and-bound algorithms to prune the…
The augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) is a classical optimization tool that solves a given "difficult" (constrained) problem via finding solutions of a sequence of "easier"(often unconstrained) sub-problems with respect to the original…
In this paper, we propose an inexact Augmented Lagrangian Method (ALM) for the optimization of convex and nonsmooth objective functions subject to linear equality constraints and box constraints where errors are due to fixed-point data. To…
We propose a novel algorithm for solving non-convex, nonlinear equality-constrained finite-sum optimization problems. The proposed algorithm incorporates an additional sampling strategy for sample size update into the well-known framework…
Traditional mathematical programming solvers require long computational times to solve constrained minimization problems of complex and large-scale physical systems. Therefore, these problems are often transformed into unconstrained ones,…
