Interior Point Methods II

Speaker: Tor Myklebust
Affiliation: University of Waterloo
Room: Mathematics and Computer Building (MC) 6486

Abstract: 

Continuing from last week's talk, I will give an explicit primal-dual interior-point method and discuss the notion of a primal-dual scaling.  I will give two constructions of primal-dual scalings, one based on classical quasi-Newton updates and the other based on integration.
