Safe Zeroth-Order Convex Optimization Using Quadratic Local Approximations

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Yuning Jiang, Maryam Kamgarpour, Baiwei Guo

We address black-box convex optimization problems, where the objective and constraint functions are not explicitly known but can be sampled within the feasible set. The challenge is thus to generate a sequence of feasible points converging towards an optim ...

Beyond Local Optimality of Buffer and Splitter Insertion for AQFP Circuits

Giovanni De Micheli, Heinz Riener, Siang-Yun Lee

Adiabatic quantum-flux parametron (AQFP) is an energy-efficient superconducting technology. Buffer and splitter (B/S) cells must be inserted to an AQFP circuit to meet the technology-imposed constraints on path balancing and fanout branching. These cells a ...

On The Convergence Of Stochastic Primal-Dual Hybrid Gradient

Volkan Cevher, Ahmet Alacaoglu

In this paper, we analyze the recently proposed stochastic primal-dual hybrid gradient (SPDHG) algorithm and provide new theoretical results. In particular, we prove almost sure convergence of the iterates to a solution with convexity and linear convergenc ...

Classification with Fairness Constraints: A Meta-Algorithm with Provable Guarantees

Nisheeth Vishnoi, Laura Elisa Celis, Vijay Keswani, Lingxiao Huang

Developing classification algorithms that are fair with respect to sensitive attributes of the data is an important problem due to the increased deployment of classification algorithms in societal contexts. Several recent works have focused on studying cla ...

Efficient Relaxations for Dense CRFs with Sparse Higher-Order Potentials

Mathieu Salzmann

Dense conditional random fields (CRFs) have become a popular framework for modeling several problems in computer vision such as stereo correspondence and multiclass semantic segmentation. By modeling long-range interactions, dense CRFs provide a labeling t ...

New Algorithmic Paradigms for Discrete Problems using Dynamical Systems and Polynomials

Damian Mateusz Straszak

Optimization is a fundamental tool in modern science. Numerous important tasks in biology, economy, physics and computer science can be cast as optimization problems. Consider the example of machine learning: recent advances have shown that even the most s ...

Coordinated Optimization and Control for Smart Grids

Altug Bitlislioglu

In this thesis, we consider commercial buildings with available heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, and develop methods to assess and exploit their energy storage and production potential to collectively offer ancillary services to th ...

Modifier adaptation with guaranteed feasibility in the presence of gradient uncertainty

Dominique Bonvin, Timm Faulwasser, Alejandro Gabriel Marchetti, Martand Singhal

In the context of real-time optimization, modifier-adaptation schemes use estimates of the plant gradients to achieve plant optimality despite plant-model mismatch. Plant feasibility is guaranteed upon convergence, but not at the successive operating point ...

On Coordinated Primal-Dual Interior-Point Methods for Multi-Agent Optimization

Colin Neil Jones, Altug Bitlislioglu

This paper presents a coordinated primal-dual interior point (PDIP) method for solving structured convex linear and quadratic programs (LP-QP) in a distributed man- ner. The considered class of problems represents a multi-agent setting, where the aggregate ...

Smooth Primal-Dual Coordinate Descent Algorithms for Nonsmooth Convex Optimization

Volkan Cevher, Quoc Tran Dinh, Ahmet Alacaoglu

We propose a new randomized coordinate descent method for a convex optimization template with broad applications. Our analysis relies on a novel combination of four ideas applied to the primal-dual gap function: smoothing, acceleration, homotopy, and coord ...

Low-rank tensor completion by Riemannian optimization

Daniel Kressner, Michael Maximilian Steinlechner

In tensor completion, the goal is to fill in missing entries of a partially known tensor under a low-rank constraint. We propose a new algorithm that performs Riemannian optimization techniques on the manifold of tensors of fixed multilinear rank. More spe ...

An exact algorithm for the integrated planning of berth allocation and quay crane assignment

Michel Bierlaire, Matteo Salani, Ilaria Vacca

In this paper we study the simultaneous optimization of berth allocation and quay crane assignment in seaport container terminals. We propose a model based on an exponential number of variables that is solved via column generation. An exact branch and pric ...

Navigating Central Path with Electrical Flows: from Flows to Matchings, and Back

Aleksander Madry

We present an O(m^10/7) = O(m^1.43)-time algorithm for the maximum s-t flow and the minimum s-t cut problems in directed graphs with unit capacities. This is the first improvement over the sparse-graph case of the long-standing O(m min{m^1/2, n^2/3}) runni ...

Efficient Interior Point Methods for Multistage Problems Arising in Receding Horizon Control

Colin Neil Jones, Melanie Nicole Zeilinger

Receding horizon control requires the solution of an optimization problem at every sampling instant. We present efficient interior point methods tailored to convex multistage problems, a problem class which most relevant MPC problems with linear dynamics c ...

Efficient Implementation of Linear Programming Decoding

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi

While linear programming (LP) decoding provides more flexibility for finite-length performance analysis than iterative message-passing (IMP) decoding, it is computationally more complex to implement in its original form, due to both the large size of the r ...
