<p>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>The functions we need are contained in the <a href="https://cvxopt.org/userguide/coneprog.html" target="_self">quadratic programming library CVXOPT</a> and we need to import it together with <b>numpy</b> as</p>
