<p>
|

We remind ourselves about the general problem we want to solve
|
||||
A mathematical (quadratic) optimization problem, or just optimization problem, has the form
|
||||
$$
|
||||
\begin{align*}
|
||||
&\mathrm{min}_{x}\hspace{0.2cm} \frac{1}{2}\boldsymbol{x}^T\boldsymbol{P}\boldsymbol{x}+\boldsymbol{q}^T\boldsymbol{x},\\ \nonumber
|
||||
&\mathrm{subject\hspace{0.1cm} to} \hspace{0.2cm} \boldsymbol{G}\boldsymbol{x} \preceq \boldsymbol{h} \wedge \boldsymbol{A}\boldsymbol{x}=f.
|
||||
&\mathrm{min}_{\lambda}\hspace{0.2cm} \frac{1}{2}\boldsymbol{\lambda}^T\boldsymbol{P}\boldsymbol{\lambda}+\boldsymbol{q}^T\boldsymbol{\lambda},\\ \nonumber
|
||||
&\mathrm{subject\hspace{0.1cm}to} \hspace{0.2cm} \boldsymbol{G}\boldsymbol{\lambda} \preceq \boldsymbol{h} \wedge \boldsymbol{A}\boldsymbol{\lambda}=f.
|
||||
\end{align*}
|
||||
$$
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Let us show how to perform the optmization using a simple case. Assume we want to optimize the following problem
|
||||
$$
|
||||
\begin{align*}
|
||||
&\mathrm{min}_{x}\hspace{0.2cm} \frac{1}{2}x^2+5x+3y \\ \nonumber
|
||||
&\mathrm{subject to} \\ \nonumber
|
||||
&x, y \geq 0 \\ \nonumber
|
||||
&x+3y \geq 15 \\ \nonumber
|
||||
&2x+5y \leq 100 \\ \nonumber
|
||||
&3x+4y \leq 80. \\ \nonumber
|
||||
\end{align*}
|
||||
$$
|
||||
|
||||
The minimization problem can be rewritten in terms of vectors and matrices as (with \( x \) and \( y \) being the unknowns)
|
||||
$$
|
||||
\frac{1}{2}\begin{bmatrix} x\\ y \end{bmatrix}^T \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0\\ 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} x \\ y \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix}3\\ 4 \end{bmatrix}^T \begin{bmatrix}x \\ y \end{bmatrix}.
|
||||
$$
|
||||
|
||||
Similarly, we can now set up the inequalities (we need to change \( \geq \) to \( \leq \) by multiplying with \( -1 \) on bot sides) as the following matrix-vector equation
|
||||
$$
|
||||
\begin{bmatrix} -1 & 0 \\ 0 & -1 \\ -1 & -3 \\ 2 & 5 \\ 3 & 4\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} x \\ y\end{bmatrix} \preceq \begin{bmatrix}0 \\ 0\\ -15 \\ 100 \\ 80\end{bmatrix}.
|
||||
$$
|
||||
|
||||
We have collapsed all the inequalities into a single matrix \( \boldsymbol{G} \). We see also that our matrix
|
||||
$$
|
||||
\boldsymbol{P} =\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0\\ 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}
|
||||
$$
|
||||
|
||||
is clearly positive semi-definite (all eigenvalues larger or equal zero).
|
||||
Finally, the vector \( \boldsymbol{h} \) is defined as
|
||||
$$
|
||||
\boldsymbol{h} = \begin{bmatrix}0 \\ 0\\ -15 \\ 100 \\ 80\end{bmatrix}.
|
||||
$$
|
||||
subject to some constraints for say a selected set \( i=1,2,\dots, n \).
|
||||
In our case we are optimizing with respect to the Lagrangian multipliers \( \lambda_i \), and the
|
||||
vector \( \boldsymbol{\lambda}=[\lambda_1, \lambda_2,\dots, \lambda_n] \) is the optimization variable we are dealing with.
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Since we don't have any equalities the matrix \( \boldsymbol{A} \) is set to zero
|
||||
The following code solves the equations for us
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
In our case we are particularly interested in a class of optimization problems called convex optmization problems.
|
||||
In our discussion on gradient descent methods we discussed at length the definition of a convex function.
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Convex optimization problems play a central role in applied mathematics and we recommend strongly <a href="http://web.stanford.edu/~boyd/cvxbook/" target="_self">Boyd and Vandenberghe's text on the topics</a>.
