We consider minimizing a sum of agent-specific nondifferentiable merely convex functions over the solution set of a variational inequality (VI) problem in that each agent is associated with a local monotone mapping. This problem finds an…
Optimal transportation of raw material from suppliers to customers is an issue arising in logistics that is addressed here with a continuous model relying on optimal transport theory. A physics informed neuralnetwork method is advocated…
There is an existing exact algorithm that solves DC programming problems if one component of the DC function is polyhedral convex (Loehne, Wagner, 2017). Motivated by this, first, we consider two cutting-plane algorithms for generating an…
We propose an approach to trajectory optimization for piecewise polynomial systems based on the recently proposed graphs of convex sets framework. We instantiate the framework with a convex relaxation of optimal control based on occupation…
We derive approximation algorithms for the nonnegative matrix factorization problem, i.e. the problem of factorizing a matrix as the product of two matrices with nonnegative coefficients. We form convex approximations of this problem which…
The Euclidean space notion of convex sets (and functions) generalizes to Riemannian manifolds in a natural sense and is called geodesic convexity. Extensively studied computational problems such as convex optimization and sampling in convex…
This paper presents the input convex neural network architecture. These are scalar-valued (potentially deep) neural networks with constraints on the network parameters such that the output of the network is a convex function of (some of)…
The minimization of a nonconvex composite function can model a variety of imaging tasks. A popular class of algorithms for solving such problems are majorization-minimization techniques which iteratively approximate the composite nonconvex…
We address the problem of finding an optimal policy in a Markov decision process under a restricted policy class defined by the convex hull of a set of base policies. This problem is of great interest in applications in which a number of…
In this paper we present a new algorithmic realization of a projection-based scheme for general convex constrained optimization problem. The general idea is to transform the original optimization problem to a sequence of feasibility…
This paper presents an algorithmic study of a class of covering mixed-integer linear programming problems which encompasses classic cover problems, including multidimensional knapsack, facility location and supplier selection problems. We…
An algorithm which computes a solution of a set optimization problem is provided. The graph of the objective map is assumed to be given by finitely many linear inequalities. A solution is understood to be a set of points in the domain…
The {\sc $c$-Balanced Separator} problem is a graph-partitioning problem in which given a graph $G$, one aims to find a cut of minimum size such that both the sides of the cut have at least $cn$ vertices. In this paper, we present new…
This paper studies binary quadratic programs in which the objective is defined by a Euclidean distance matrix, subject to a general polyhedral constraint set. This class of nonconcave maximisation problems includes the capacitated,…
In this paper, we propose new sequential randomized algorithms for convex optimization problems in the presence of uncertainty. A rigorous analysis of the theoretical properties of the solutions obtained by these algorithms, for full…
We study a multi-period convex quadratic optimization problem, where the state evolves dynamically as an affine function of the state, control, and indicator variables in each period. We begin by projecting out the state variables using…
Inverse optimization, determining parameters of an optimization problem that render a given solution optimal, has received increasing attention in recent years. While significant inverse optimization literature exists for convex…
In this paper, "chance optimization" problems are introduced, where one aims at maximizing the probability of a set defined by polynomial inequalities. These problems are, in general, nonconvex and computationally hard. With the objective…
We study multivariate normal models that are described by linear constraints on the inverse of the covariance matrix. Maximum likelihood estimation for such models leads to the problem of maximizing the determinant function over a…
Majorization-minimization algorithms consist of iteratively minimizing a majorizing surrogate of an objective function. Because of its simplicity and its wide applicability, this principle has been very popular in statistics and in signal…
