摘要:
A new primal-dual interior-point algorithm applicable to nonsymmetric conic optimization is proposed. It is a generalization of the famous algorithm suggested by Nesterov and Todd for the symmetric conic case, and uses primal-dual scalings for nonsymmetric cones proposed by Tuncel. We specialize Tuncel's primal-dual scalings for the important case of 3 dimensional exponential-cones, resulting in a practical algorithm with good numerical performance, on level with standard symmetric cone (e.g., quadratic cone) algorithms. A significant contribution of the paper is a novel higher-order search direction, similar in spirit to a Mehrotra corrector for symmetric cone algorithms. To a large extent, the efficiency of our proposed algorithm can be attributed to this new corrector.
