Advanced Algorithm Design: Semidefinite Programming (SDP)
نویسنده
چکیده
In the last few lectures, we considered constant-factor approximation algorithms that relied on linear programming and greedy algorithms. In this lecture, we will analyze algorithms that use a more powerful mathematical programming technique called semidefinite programming. We will illustrate the power of semidefinite programming by looking at the maximum cut problem. However, SDPs are useful for other problems as well.

A Recurrent Neural Network Model for Solving Linear Semidefinite Programming
In this paper we solve a wide rang of Semidefinite Programming (SDP) Problem by using Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs). SDP is an important numerical tool for analysis and synthesis in systems and control theory. First we reformulate the problem to a linear programming problem, second we reformulate it to a first order system of ordinary differential equations. Then a recurrent neural network...
متن کاملConvex Quantifier Elimination for Semidefinite Programming
Semidefinite Programming (SDP) is a class of convex optimization problems with a linear objective function and linear matrix inequality (LMI) constraints. SDP problems have many applications in engineering and applied mathematics. We propose a reasonably fast algorithm to prove and solve SDP exactly by exploiting the convexity of the SDP feasibility domain. This is achieved by combining a symbo...
متن کاملAdvanced Optimization Laboratory Title : A semidefinite programming based polyhedral cut and price approach for the maxcut problem
We investigate solution of the maximum cut problem using a polyhedral cut and price approach. The dual of the well-known SDP relaxation of maxcut is formulated as a semi-infinite linear programming problem, which is solved within an interior point cutting plane algorithm in a dual setting; this constitutes the pricing (column generation) phase of the algorithm. Cutting planes based on the polyh...
متن کاملAdaptive grid semidefinite programming for finding optimal designs
We find optimal designs for linear models using a novel algorithm that iteratively combines a Semidefinite Programming (SDP) approach with adaptive grid (AG) techniques. The search space is first discretized and SDP is applied to find the optimal design based on the initial grid. The points in the next grid set are points that maximize the dispersion function of the SDP-generated optimal design...
متن کاملSequential Semidefinite Programming for Optimization of Framed Structures under Multimodal Buckling Constraints
An algorithm based on Semi-Definite Programming (SDP) formulation is proposed for optimum design for specified linear buckling load factor. Optimal trusses and frames are computed by using the primal-dual interior-point method for SDP. It is well known that optimizing structures under buckling constraints is difficult because of nondifferentiability of the buckling load factors for the case of ...
