This paper proposes a novel paradigm for machine learning that moves beyond traditional parameter optimization. Unlike conventional approaches that search for optimal parameters within a fixed geometric space, our core idea is to treat the…

Many theoretical problems in quantum technology can be formulated and addressed as constrained optimization problems. The most common quantum mechanical constraints such as, e.g., orthogonality of isometric and unitary matrices, CPTP…

This contribution examines optimization problems that involve stochastic dominance constraints. These problems have uncountably many constraints. We develop methods to solve the optimization problem by reducing the constraints to a finite…

Algorithms proposed for solving high-dimensional optimization problems with no derivative information frequently encounter the "curse of dimensionality," becoming ineffective as the dimension of the parameter space grows. One feature of a…

An optimization algorithm for nonsmooth nonconvex constrained optimization problems with upper-C2 objective functions is proposed and analyzed. Upper-C2 is a weakly concave property that exists in difference of convex (DC) functions and…

This paper presents a piecewise convexification method for solving non-convex multi-objective optimization problems with box constraints. Based on the ideas of the $\alpha$-based Branch and Bound (${\rm \alpha BB}$) method of global…

The techniques and analysis presented in this thesis provide new methods to solve optimization problems posed on Riemannian manifolds. These methods are applied to the subspace tracking problem found in adaptive signal processing and…

This paper develops a sliding mode control based frame work for equality constrained optimization by reformulation the first order Karush Kuhn Tucker conditions as control affine dynamical system. The optimization variables are treated as…

In this work we are interested in the construction of numerical methods for high dimensional constrained nonlinear optimization problems by particle-based gradient-free techniques. A consensus-based optimization (CBO) approach combined with…

Hidden convexity is a powerful idea in optimization: under the right transformations, nonconvex problems that are seemingly intractable can be solved efficiently using convex optimization. We introduce the notion of a Lagrangian dual…

Optimization models with non-convex constraints arise in many tasks in machine learning, e.g., learning with fairness constraints or Neyman-Pearson classification with non-convex loss. Although many efficient methods have been developed…

This paper proposes a new inexact manifold proximal linear (IManPL) algorithm for solving nonsmooth, nonconvex composite optimization problems over an embedded submanifold. At each iteration, IManPL solves a convex subproblem inexactly,…

Efficient methods to provide sub-optimal solutions to non-convex optimization problems with knowledge of the solution's sub-optimality would facilitate the widespread application of nonlinear optimal control algorithms. To that end,…

In this paper, we focus on a class of constrained nonlinear optimization problems (NLP), where some of its equality constraints define a closed embedded submanifold $\mathcal{M}$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Although NLP can be solved directly by…

In this paper, we focus on the nonconvex-strongly-concave minimax optimization problem (MCC), where the inner maximization subproblem contains constraints that couple the primal variable of the outer minimization problem. We prove that by…

A new exact projective penalty method is proposed for the equivalent reduction of constrained optimization problems to nonsmooth unconstrained ones. In the method, the original objective function is extended to infeasible points by summing…

In this paper, we consider bilevel optimization problem where the lower-level has coupled constraints, i.e. the constraints depend both on the upper- and lower-level variables. In particular, we consider two settings for the lower-level…

We introduce a new workflow for unconstrained optimization whereby objective functions are mapped onto a physical domain to more easily design algorithms that are robust to hyperparameters and achieve fast convergence rates. Specifically,…

We establish a broad methodological foundation for mixed-integer optimization with learned constraints. We propose an end-to-end pipeline for data-driven decision making in which constraints and objectives are directly learned from data…
