A wide variety of nonlinear convex optimization problems can be cast as problems involving linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), and hence efficiently solved using recently developed interior-point methods. In this paper, we will consider two classes of optimization problems with LMI constraints: (1)

β¦ Synopsis
In this paper we consider a semidefinite programming (SDP) problem in which the objective function depends linearly on a scalar parameter. We study the properties of the optimal objective function value as a function of that parameter and extend the concept of the optimal partition and its range in linear programming to SDP. We also consider an approach to sensitivity analysis in SDP and the extension of our results to an SDP problem with a parametric right-hand side.

Let E be the Hilbert space of real symmetric matrices with block diagonal form diag(A, M), where A is n Γ n, and M is an l Γ l diagonal matrix, with the inner product x, y β‘ Trace(xy). We assume n + l 1, i.e. allow n = 0 or l = 0. Given x β E, we write x 0 (x 0) if it is positive semidefinite (posit
We present a convex programming approach to the problem of matching subgraphs which represent object views against larger graphs which represent scenes. Starting from a linear programming formulation for computing optimal matchings in bipartite graphs, we extend the linear objective function in orde
