Optimization algorithms and methods

Penalty method

Penalty methods are a certain class of algorithms for solving constrained optimization problems. A penalty method replaces a constrained optimization problem by a series of unconstrained problems whose solutions ideally converge to the solution of the original constrained problem. The unconstrained problems are formed by adding a term, called a penalty function, to the objective function that consists of a penalty parameter multiplied by a measure of violation of the constraints. The measure of violation is nonzero when the constraints are violated and is zero in the region where constraints are not violated. (Wikipedia).

The Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) Conditions and the Interior Point Method for Convex Optimization

A gentle and visual introduction to the topic of Convex Optimization (part 3/3). In this video, we continue the discussion on the principle of duality, which ultimately leads us to the "interior point method" in optimization. Along the way, we derive the celebrated Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KK
