An Exact Reformulation Algorithm for Large Nonconvex NLPs Involving Bilinear Terms

Many nonconvex nonlinear programming (NLP) problems of practical interest involve bilinear terms and linear constraints, as well as, potentially, other convex and nonconvex terms and constraints. In such cases, it may be possible to augment the formulation with additional linear constraints (a subset of Reformulation-Linearization Technique constraints) which do not affect the feasible region of the original NLP but tighten that of its convex relaxation to the extent that some bilinear terms may be dropped from the problem formulation. We present an efficient graph-theoretical algorithm for effecting such exact reformulations of large, sparse NLPs. The global solution of the reformulated problem using spatial Branch-and Bound algorithms is usually significantly faster than that of the original NLP. We illustrate this point by applying our algorithm to a set of pooling and blending global optimization problems.     

Nonlinear and Geometric Programming – Current Status

Great strides have been made in nonlinear programming (NLP) in the last 5 years. In smooth NLP, there are now several reliable and efficient codes capable of solving large problems. Most of these implement GRG or SQP methods, and new software using interior point algorithms is under development. NLP software is now much easier to use, as it is interfaced with many modeling systems, including MSC/NASTRAN, and ANSYS for structural problems, GAMS and AMPL for general optimization, Matlab and Mathcad for general mathematical problems, and the widely used Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. For mixed integer problems, branch and bound and outer approximation codes are now available and are coupled to some of the above modeling systems, while search methods like Tabu Search and Genetic algorithms permit combinatorial, nonsmooth, and nonconvex problems to be attacked.     

A NEW INEXACT SEQUENTIAL QUADRATIC PROGRAMMING ALGORITHM

This paper represents an inexact sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm which can solve nonlinear programming (NLP) problems. An inexact solution of the quadratic programming subproblem is determined by a projection and contraction method such that only matrix-vector product is required. Some truncated criteria are chosen such that the algorithm is suitable to large scale NLP problem. The global convergence of the algorithm is proved.     

Robust nonlinear optimization with conic representable uncertainty set

The robust optimization methodology is known as a popular method dealing with optimization problems with uncertain data and hard constraints. This methodology has been applied so far to various convex conic optimization problems where only their inequality constraints are subject to uncertainty. In this paper, the robust optimization methodology is applied to the general nonlinear programming (NLP) problem involving both uncertain inequality and equality constraints. The uncertainty set is defined by conic representable sets, the proposed uncertainty set is general enough to include many uncertainty sets, which have been used in literature, as special cases. The robust counterpart (RC) of the general NLP problem is approximated under this uncertainty set. It is shown that the resulting approximate RC of the general NLP problem is valid in a small neighborhood of the nominal value. Furthermore a rather general class of programming problems is posed that the robust counterparts of its problems can be derived exactly under the proposed uncertainty set. Our results show the applicability of robust optimization to a wider area of real applications and theoretical problems with more general uncertainty sets than those considered so far. The resulting robust counterparts which are traditional optimization problems make it possible to use existing algorithms of mathematical optimization to solve more complicated and general robust optimization problems.     

Three new models for preference voting and aggregation

Preference voting and aggregation require the determination of the weights associated with different ranking places. This paper proposes three new models to assess the weights. Two of them are linear programming (LP) models which determine a common set of weights for all the candidates considered and the other is a nonlinear programming (NLP) model that determines the most favourable weights for each candidate. The proposed models are examined with two numerical examples and it is shown that the proposed models cannot only choose a winner, but also give a full ranking of all the candidates.     

Structured regularization for barrier NLP solvers

Barrier methods have led to several nonlinear programming (NLP) solvers (e.g. IPOPT, KNITRO, LOQO). However, certain regularity conditions are required for convergence of these methods. These conditions are violated for optimization models with dependent constraints, thus leading to method failure. These shortcomings can be identified by checking the inertia of the KKT matrix, and current solvers either add regularizing terms to correct the inertia of the KKT matrix or revert to more expensive trust region methods to solve the barrier problem. This study improves on these approaches with a new structured regularization strategy; within the Newton step it identifies an independent subset of equality constraints and removes the remaining constraints without modifying the KKT matrix structure. This approach leads to more accurate Newton steps and faster convergence, while maintaining global convergence properties. Implemented in IPOPT with linear solvers HSL_MA57, HSL_MA97 and MUMPS, we present numerical experiments on hundreds of examples from the CUTEr test set, modified for dependency. These results show an average reduction in iterations of more than 50 % over the current version of IPOPT. In addition, several nonlinear blending problems are solved with the proposed algorithm, and improvements over existing regularization strategies are further demonstrated.     

Global optimization approach to nonlinear optimal control

To determine the optimum in nonlinear optimal control problems, it is proposed to convert the continuous problems into a form suitable for nonlinear programming (NLP). Since the resulting finite-dimensional NLP problems can present multiple local optima, a global optimization approach is developed where random starting conditions are improved by using special line searches. The efficiency, speed, and reliability of the proposed approach is examined by using two examples.Financial support from the Natural Science and Engineering Research Council under Grant A-3515 as well as an Ontario Graduate Scholarship are gratefully acknowledged. All the computations were done with the facilities of the University of Toronto Computer Centre and the Ontario Centre for Large Scale Computations.     

Wavelet Collocation Method for Optimal Control Problems

A Haar wavelet technique is discussed as a method for discretizing the nonlinear system equations for optimal control problems. The technique is used to transform the state and control variables into nonlinear programming (NLP) parameters at collocation points. A nonlinear programming solver can then be used to solve optimal control problems that are rather general in form. Here, general Bolza optimal control problems with state and control constraints are considered. Examples of two kinds of optimal control problems, continuous and discrete, are solved. The results are compared to those obtained by using other collocation methods.
