Inequality Constrained Stochastic Nonlinear Optimization via Active-Set Sequential Quadratic Programming

1 code implementation23 Sep 2021 Sen Na, Mihai Anitescu, Mladen Kolar

We study nonlinear optimization problems with a stochastic objective and deterministic equality and inequality constraints, which emerge in numerous applications including finance, manufacturing, power systems and, recently, deep neural networks.

An Adaptive Stochastic Sequential Quadratic Programming with Differentiable Exact Augmented Lagrangians

1 code implementation10 Feb 2021 Sen Na, Mihai Anitescu, Mladen Kolar

Based on the simplified deterministic algorithm, we then propose a non-adaptive SQP for dealing with stochastic objective, where the gradient and Hessian are replaced by stochastic estimates but the stepsizes are deterministic and prespecified.
