Towards a Practical Volumetric Cutting Plane Method for Convex Programming

نویسنده

  • Kurt M. Anstreicher
چکیده

We consider the volumetric cutting plane method for nding a point in a convex set C < n that is characterized by a separation oracle. We prove polynomiality of the algorithm with each added cut placed directly through the current point, and show that this \central cut" version of the method can be implemented using no more than 25n constraints at any time. with support from a CORE fellowship.

Polynomial interior point cutting plane methods

Polynomial cutting plane methods based on the logarithmic barrier function and on the volumetric center are surveyed. These algorithms construct a linear programming relaxation of the feasible region, find an appropriate approximate center of the region, and call a separation oracle at this approximate center to determine whether additional constraints should be added to the relaxation. Typical...

A Long Step Cutting Plane Algorithm That Uses the Volumetric Barrier

A cutting plane method for linear/convex programming is described. It is based on the volumetric barrier, introduced by Vaidya. The algorithm is a long step one, and has a complexity of O(nL) Newton steps. This is better than the O(n √ mL) complexity of non-cutting plane long step methods based on the volumetric barrier, but it is however worse than Vaidya’s original O(nL) result (which is not ...

Multi-objective Synthesis Using LMI Formulations for Application of the Cutting Plane Algorithm

The problem of designing a controller to meet different specifications or deciding that no such controller exists is addressed in this paper by linking three types of tools: the Youla parameterization allows searching for a controller in a convex set; formulations using Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMI) are proposed for different practical specifications; the corresponding convex problem is solv...

An Extended Cutting Plane Method for Solving Convex Minlp Problems

An extended version of Kelley’s cutting plane method is introduced in the present paper. The extended method can be applied for the solution of convex MINLP (mixed-integer non-linear programming) problems, while Kelley’s cutting plane method was originally introduced for the solution of convex NLP (non-linear programming) problems only. The method is suitable for solving large convex MINLP prob...

Ellipsoidal Approximations of Convex Sets Based on the Volumetric Barrier

Let C R n be a convex set. We assume that kxk 1 1 for all x 2 C, and that C contains a ball of radius 1=R. For x 2 R n , r 2 R, and B an n n symmetric positive deenite matrix, let E(x; B; r) = fy j (y ? x) T B(y ? x) r 2 g. A-rounding of C is an ellipsoid E(x; B; r) such that E(x; B; r==) C E(x; B; r). In the case that C is characterized by a separation oracle, it is well known that an O(n 3=2)...
