<h2 id="___sec25" class="anchor">A simple example </h2>
<h2 id="___sec25" class="anchor">How do we solve these problems? </h2>
<p>
We remind ourselves about the general problem we want to solve
$$
\begin{align*}
&\mathrm{min}_{x}\hspace{0.2cm} \frac{1}{2}\boldsymbol{x}^T\boldsymbol{P}\boldsymbol{x}+\boldsymbol{q}^T\boldsymbol{x},\\ \nonumber
&\mathrm{subject\hspace{0.1cm} to} \hspace{0.2cm} \boldsymbol{G}\boldsymbol{x} \preceq \boldsymbol{h} \wedge \boldsymbol{A}\boldsymbol{x}=f.
\end{align*}
$$
If we use Python as programming language and wish to venture beyond
<b>scikit-learn</b>, <b>tensorflow</b> and similar software which makes our
lives so much easier, we need to dive into the wonderful world of
quadratic programming. We can, if we wish, solve the minimization
problem using say standard gradient methods or conjugate gradient
methods. However, these methods tend to exhibit a rather slow
converge. So, welcome to the promised land of quadratic programming.
<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 functions we need are contained in the quadratic programming package <b>CVXOPT</b> and we need to import it together with <b>numpy</b> as
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
$$
\boldsymbol{h} = \begin{bmatrix}0 \\ 0\\ -15 \\ 100 \\ 80\end{bmatrix}.
$$
<p>
Since we don't have any equalities the matrix \( \boldsymbol{A} \) is set to zero
The following code solves the equations for us
