Large-scale nonlinear programming algorithm using projection methods
A method for solving large convex optimization problems is presented. Such problems usually contain a big linear part and only a small or medium nonlinear part. The parts are tackled using two specialized (and thus efficient) external solvers: purely nonlinear and large-scale linear with a quadratic goal function. The decomposition uses an alteration of projection methods. The construction of the method is based on the zigzagging phenomenon and yields a non-asymptotic convergence, not dependent...
