Nonlinear rescaling is a tool for solving large-scale nonlinear programming problems. The primal-dual nonlinear rescaling method was used to solve two quadratic programming problems with quadratic constraints. Based on the performance of primal-dual nonlinear rescaling method on testing problems, the conclusions about setting up the parameters are made. Next, the connection between nonlinear rescaling methods and self-concordant functions is discussed and modified logarithmic barrier...

Similarity:

In this paper we propose a primal-dual interior-point algorithm for convex quadratic semidefinite optimization problem. The search direction of algorithm is defined in terms of a matrix function and the iteration is generated by full-Newton step. Furthermore, we derive the iteration bound for the algorithm with small-update method, namely, ( n log n ε ), which is best-known bound so far.

Reformulations in Mathematical Programming: Definitions and Systematics

Leo Liberti (2009)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

A reformulation of a mathematical program is a formulation which shares some properties with, but is in some sense better than, the original program. Reformulations are important with respect to the choice and efficiency of the solution algorithms; furthermore, it is desirable that reformulations can be carried out automatically. Reformulation techniques are widespread in mathematical programming but interestingly they have never been studied under a unified framework. This paper attempts...
