Primal-dual interior-point methods solve constrained convex optimization problems to tight tolerances with speed and robustness. Their solutions are also efficiently differentiable with respect to the problem data through the implicit…
We propose and analyse primal-dual interior-point algorithms for convex optimization problems in conic form. The families of algorithms we analyse are so-called short-step algorithms and they match the current best iteration complexity…
Primal-Dual Interior-Point methods are capable of solving constrained convex optimization problems to tight tolerances in a fast and robust manner. The derivatives of the primal-dual solution with respect to the problem matrices can be…
With the help of a logarithmic barrier augmented Lagrangian function, we can obtain closed-form solutions of slack variables of logarithmic-barrier problems of nonlinear programs. As a result, a two-parameter primal-dual nonlinear system is…
We review the simplex method and two interior-point methods (the affine scaling and the primal-dual) for solving linear programming problems for checking avoiding sure loss, and propose novel improvements. We exploit the structure of these…
Since more than three decades, interior-point methods proved very useful for optimization, from linear over semidefinite to conic (and partly beyond non-convex) programming; despite the fact that already in the semidefinite case (even when…
In this paper we combine an infeasible Interior Point Method (IPM) with the Proximal Method of Multipliers (PMM). The resulting algorithm (IP-PMM) is interpreted as a primal-dual regularized IPM, suitable for solving linearly constrained…
In this paper, we address the efficient numerical solution of linear and quadratic programming problems, often of large scale. With this aim, we devise an infeasible interior point method, blended with the proximal method of multipliers,…
Distributed and decentralized optimization are key for the control of networked systems. Application examples include distributed model predictive control and distributed sensing or estimation. Non-linear systems, however, lead to problems…
Interior-point methods for linear programming problems require the repeated solution of a linear system of equations. Solving these linear systems is non-trivial due to the severe ill-conditioning of the matrices towards convergence. This…
We study infeasible-start primal-dual interior-point methods for convex optimization problems given in a typically natural form we denote as Domain-Driven formulation. Our algorithms extend many advantages of primal-dual interior-point…
We consider structured minimization problems subject to smooth inequality constraints and present a flexible algorithm that combines interior point (IP) and proximal gradient schemes. While traditional IP methods cannot cope with nonsmooth…
Interior Point Methods are widely used to solve Linear Programming problems. In this work, we present two primal affine scaling algorithms to achieve faster convergence in solving Linear Programming problems. In the first algorithm, we…
We prove that the classic logarithmic barrier problem is equivalent to a particular logarithmic barrier positive relaxation problem with barrier and scaling parameters. Based on the equivalence, a line-search primal-dual interior-point…
We present a short step interior point method for solving a class of nonlinear programming problems with quadratic objective function. Convex quadratic programming problems can be reformulated as problems in this class. The method is shown…
Interior point methods (IPMs) are a common approach for solving linear programs (LPs) with strong theoretical guarantees and solid empirical performance. The time complexity of these methods is dominated by the cost of solving a linear…
Linear programming has been practically solved mainly by simplex and interior point methods. Compared with the weakly polynomial complexity obtained by the interior point methods, the existence of strongly polynomial bounds for the length…
A new relaxed variant of interior point method for low-rank semidefinite programming problems is proposed in this paper. The method is a step outside of the usual interior point framework. In anticipation to converging to a low-rank primal…
We consider linear programming (LP) problems in infinite dimensional spaces that are in general computationally intractable. Under suitable assumptions, we develop an approximation bridge from the infinite-dimensional LP to tractable finite…
We design and analyze primal-dual, feasible interior-point algorithms (IPAs) employing full Newton steps to solve convex optimization problems in standard conic form. Unlike most nonsymmetric cone programming methods, the algorithms…
