[edit]Convex optimization algorithms?
[edit]Can someone give a mathematical overview of algorithms for convex optimization, or link to a resource explaining them in detail? (The existing wikipedia article does a terrible job at explaining what they are, in contrast to the situation for linear programming, or some other articles. Also I want to write some of Bregman method, so it would be really helpful to get an overview of the field.) Duckmather (talk) 20:20, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
- The section Convex optimization § References has a link to the book Convex Optimization by Boyd and Vandenberghe. Does that work for you? --Lambiam 21:47, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you! (By the way, I had also independently found the link to the book and thought it a beautiful explainer, but was unsure about its applicability.) I'll go and expand the algorithms section based on this. (More references are still appreciated, by the way.) Duckmather (talk) 04:53, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
