Strengthened SDP relaxation for an extended trust region subproblem with an application to optimal power flow

On SOCP/SDP Formulation of the Extended Trust Region Subproblem

We consider the extended trust region subproblem (eTRS) as the minimization of an indefinite quadratic function subject to the intersection of unit ball with a single linear inequality constraint. Using a variation of the S-Lemma, we derive the necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for eTRS. Then, an OCP/SDP formulation is introduced for the problem. Finally, several illustrative examp...

Kronecker Product Constraints with an Application to the Two-Trust-Region Subproblem

an application of fuzzy logic for car insurance underwriting

در ایران بیمه خودرو سهم بزرگی در صنعت بیمه دارد. تعیین حق بیمه مناسب و عادلانه نیازمند طبقه بندی خریداران بیمه نامه براساس خطرات احتمالی آنها است. عوامل ریسکی فراوانی می تواند بر این قیمت گذاری تاثیر بگذارد. طبقه بندی و تعیین میزان تاثیر گذاری هر عامل ریسکی بر قیمت گذاری بیمه خودرو پیچیدگی خاصی دارد. در این پایان نامه سعی در ارائه راهی جدید برای طبقه بندی عوامل ریسکی با استفاده از اصول و روش ها...

An Alternating Trust Region Algorithm for Distributed Linearly Constrained Nonlinear Programs Application to the AC Optimal Power Flow

A novel trust region method for solving linearly constrained nonlinear programs is presented. The proposed technique is amenable to a distributed implementation, as its salient ingredient is an alternating projected gradient sweep in place of the Cauchy point computation. It is proven that the algorithm yields a sequence that globally converges to a critical point. As a result of some changes t...

The generalized trust region subproblem

The interval bounded generalized trust region subproblem (GTRS) consists in minimizing a general quadratic objective, q0(x) → min, subject to an upper and lower bounded general quadratic constraint, l ≤ q1(x) ≤ u. This means that there are no definiteness assumptions on either quadratic function. We first study characterizations of optimality for this implicitly convex problem under a constrain...
