Nonconvex Penalization Using Laplace Exponents and Concave Conjugates
In this paper we study sparsity-inducing nonconvex penalty functions using Lévy processes. We define such a penalty as the Laplace exponent of a subordinator. Accordingly, we propose a novel approach for the construction of sparsityinducing nonconvex penalties. Particularly, we show that the nonconvex logarithmic (LOG) and exponential (EXP) penalty functions are the Laplace exponents of Gamma a...
متن کاملConvergent LMI relaxations for nonconvex quadratic programs
We consider the general nonconvex quadratic programming problem and provide a series of convex positive semidefinite programs (or LMI relaxations) whose sequence of optimal values is monotone and converges to the optimal value of the original problem. It improves and includes as a special case the well-known Shor’s LMI formulation. Often, the optimal value is obtained at some particular early r...
متن کاملAn LPCC approach to nonconvex quadratic programs
Filling a gap in nonconvex quadratic programming, this paper shows that the global resolution of a feasible quadratic program (QP), which is not known a priori to be bounded or unbounded below, can be accomplished in finite time by solving a linear program with linear complementarity constraints, i.e., an LPCC. Alternatively, this task can be divided into two LPCCs: the first confirms whether t...
متن کاملSolving Box-Constrained Nonconvex Quadratic Programs
We present effective computational techniques for solving nonconvex quadratic programs with box constraints (BoxQP). We first observe that cutting planes obtained from the Boolean Quadric Polytope (BQP) are computationally effective at reducing the optimality gap of BoxQP. We next show that the Chvátal-Gomory closure of the BQP is given by the odd-cycle inequalities even when the underlying gra...
متن کاملConvex quadratic relaxations of nonconvex quadratically constrained quadratic programs
Nonconvex quadratic constraints can be linearized to obtain relaxations in a wellunderstood manner. We propose to tighten the relaxation by using second order cone constraints, resulting in a convex quadratic relaxation. Our quadratic approximation to the bilinear term is compared to the linear McCormick bounds. The second order cone constraints are based on linear combinations of pairs of vari...
