This monograph presents the main complexity theorems in convex optimization and their corresponding algorithms. It begins with the fundamental theory of black-box optimization and proceeds to guide ...

Additionally, novel distributed discrete-time algorithms have been developed for convex optimisation over directed networks by incorporating momentum terms and gradient tracking techniques ...

Course Description. This course discusses basic convex analysis (convex sets, functions, and optimization problems), optimization theory (linear, quadratic, semidefinite, and geometric programming; ...

Non-convex optimization is now ubiquitous in machine learning. While previously, ... but simple iterative algorithms, e.g. gradient descent with random restarts.

When solving decision-making problems with mathematical optimization, some constraints or objectives may lack analytic expressions but can be approximated from the data. When an approximation is made ...
