چکیده

The classical augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) plays a fundamental role in algorithmic development of constrained optimization. In this paper, we mainly show that Nesterov’s influential acceleration techniques can be applied to accelerate ALM, thus yielding an accelerated ALM whose iteration-complexity is O(1/k) for linearly constrained convex programming. As a by-product, we also show easily that the convergence rate of the original ALM is O(1/k).

Inexact accelerated augmented Lagrangian methods

The augmented Lagrangian method is a popular method for solving linearly constrained convex minimization problem and has been used many applications. In recently, the accelerated version of augmented Lagrangian method was developed. The augmented Lagrangian method has the subproblem and dose not have the closed form solution in general. In this talk, we propose the inexact version of accelerate...

A primal-dual augmented Lagrangian

Nonlinearly constrained optimization problems can be solved by minimizing a sequence of simpler unconstrained or linearly constrained subproblems. In this paper, we discuss the formulation of subproblems in which the objective is a primal-dual generalization of the Hestenes-Powell augmented Lagrangian function. This generalization has the crucial feature that it is minimized with respect to bot...

A Modified Barrier-Augmented Lagrangian Method for Constrained Minimization

We present and analyze an interior-exterior augmented Lagrangian method for solving constrained optimization problems with both inequality and equality constraints. This method, the modified barrier—augmented Lagrangian (MBAL) method, is a combination of the modified barrier and the augmented Lagrangian methods. It is based on the MBAL function, which treats inequality constraints with a modifi...

A generating set direct search augmented Lagrangian algorithm for optimization with a combination of general and linear constraints

We consider the solution of nonlinear programs in the case where derivatives of the objective function and nonlinear constraints are unavailable. To solve such problems, we propose an adaptation of a method due to Conn, Gould, Sartenaer, and Toint that proceeds by approximately minimizing a succession of linearly constrained augmented Lagrangians. Our modification is to use a 3 derivative-free ...

Sequential equality-constrained optimization for nonlinear programming

A new method is proposed for solving optimization problems with equality constraints and bounds on the variables. In the spirit of Sequential Quadratic Programming and Sequential Linearly-Constrained Programming, the new method approximately solves, at each iteration, an equality-constrained optimization problem. The bound constraints are handled in outer iterations by means of an Augmented Lag...
