Bilevel Optimization is a branch of optimization, which contains a nested optimization problem within the constraints of the outer optimization problem. The outer optimization task is usually referred as the upper level task, and the nested inner optimization task is referred as the lower level task. The lower level problem appears as a constraint, such that only an optimal solution to the lower level optimization problem is a possible feasible candidate to the upper level optimization problem.

Second-Order Sensitivity Analysis for Bilevel Optimization

stanfordasl/second-ordersensitivityanalysisforbileveloptimization 4 May 2022

Many existing approaches to bilevel optimization employ first-order sensitivity analysis, based on the implicit function theorem (IFT), for the lower problem to derive a gradient of the lower problem solution with respect to its parameters; this IFT gradient is then used in a first-order optimization method for the upper problem.
