How to advance in Structural Convex Optimization
نویسنده
چکیده
The Mathematical Programming Society will publish the new journal Mathematical Programming Computation (MPC) beginning in 2009. The journal is devoted to computational issues in mathematical programming, including innovative software, comparative tests, modeling environments, libraries of data, and/or applications. A main feature of the journal is the inclusion of accompanying software and data with submitted manuscripts. The journal’s review process includes the evaluation and testing of the accompanying software. Where possible, the review will aim for verification of reported computational results.

Modified Convex Data Clustering Algorithm Based on Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers
Knowing the fact that the main weakness of the most standard methods including k-means and hierarchical data clustering is their sensitivity to initialization and trapping to local minima, this paper proposes a modification of convex data clustering in which there is no need to be peculiar about how to select initial values. Due to properly converting the task of optimization to an equivalent...
متن کاملOptimal energy management of the photovoltaic based distribution networks considering price responsive loads, energy storage systems and convex power flows.
Nowadays, presence of photovoltaic systems in distribution network is not without challenge and it may not have economic productivity for the system under the lack of optimal management. Energy storage systems are able to cope with this problem. Therefore, in this paper, a new method is proposed for energy management of the distribution networks in order to show that how presence of the energy ...
متن کاملTOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION OF STRUCTURES UNDER TRANSIENT LOADS
In this article, an efficient methodology is presented to optimize the topology of structural systems under transient loads. Equivalent static loads concept is used to deal with transient loads and to solve an alternate quasi-static optimization problem. The maximum strain energy of the structure under the transient load during the loading interval is used as objective function. The objective f...
متن کاملLinear Time Varying MPC Based Path Planning of an Autonomous Vehicle via Convex Optimization
In this paper a new method is introduced for path planning of an autonomous vehicle. In this method, the environment is considered cluttered and with some uncertainty sources. Thus, the state of detected object should be estimated using an optimal filter. To do so, the state distribution is assumed Gaussian. Thus the state vector is estimated by a Kalman filter at each time step. The estimation...
متن کاملA Semidefinite Optimization Approach to Quadratic Fractional Optimization with a Strictly Convex Quadratic Constraint
In this paper we consider a fractional optimization problem that minimizes the ratio of two quadratic functions subject to a strictly convex quadratic constraint. First using the extension of Charnes-Cooper transformation, an equivalent homogenized quadratic reformulation of the problem is given. Then we show that under certain assumptions, it can be solved to global optimality using semidefini...
