What we are interested in

We research and develop algorithms for continuous optimization, with a particular emphasis on solving high-dimensional optimization problems with first-order methods. We prove convergence rates and guarantees for a variety of settings, such as: Conditional gradient aka Frank-Wolfe methods, which perform constrained optimization by accessing the feasible set via a linear optimization oracle.Proximal methods, which yield efficient algorithms for nonsmooth optimization and practically reshape smooth ones. And block-iterative algorithms which leverage parallelism and distributed computation for faster algorithmic performance. We combine these algorithms with a branch-and-bound framework tackle nonlinear mixed-integer problems, in particular those with combinatorial structure.

Research Campus MODAL SynLab

SynLab researches mathematical generalization of application-specific advances achieved in the Gas-, Rail– and MedLab of the research campus MODAL. The focus is on exact methods for solving a broad class of discrete-continuous optimization problems. This requires advanced techniques for structure recognition, consideration of nonlinear restrictions from practice, and the efficient implementation of mathematical algorithms on modern computer architectures. The results are bundled in a professional software package and complemented by a range of high-performance methods for specific applications with a high degree of innovation.

Convex Solver Adaptivity for Mixed-integer Optimization

We will investigate mixed-integer optimization with convex objectives using error-adaptive convex solvers in branch-and-bound. Focusing on improving lower bounds and balancing computational costs, we aim to develop a faster branch-and-bound methodology by leveraging modern MILP techniques and error-adaptive methods. Key aspects include warm-starting and controlled inexactness in early termination.

On a Frank-Wolfe Approach for Abs-smooth Optimization

Motivated by nonsmooth problems in machine learning, we solve the problem of minimizing an abs-smooth function subject to closed convex constraints. New theory and algorithms are developed using linear minimization oracles to enforce constraints and abs-linearization methods to handle nonsmoothness.

Completed Projects

Decision-making for Energy Network Dynamics

We develop theory and algorithms for 0-1 decision making in optimization problems constrained by partial differential equations. By exploring extended formulations, we achieve new stationarity concepts through sequential exact and approximative relaxation of adjoint-based primal-dual optimality conditions.

Sparsity and Sample-size Efficiency in Structured Learning

In this project, we study algorithms that promote sparsity. We develop PageRank optimization algorithms that scale with solution sparsity and investigate Riemannian optimization using manifold geometry. Additionally, we develop algorithms for efficient fair resource allocation based on established fairness axioms.

Beyond the Worst-case: Data-dependent Rates in Learning and Optimization

Worst-case complexity bounds are increasingly insufficient to explain the (often superior) real-world performance of optimization and learning algorithms. We consider data-dependent rates, approximation guarantees, and complexity bounds to provide guarantees much more in line with actual performance.
