In this work, we deal with Truncated Newton methods for solving large scale (possibly nonconvex) unconstrained optimization problems. In particular,we consider the use of amodified Bunch and Kaufman factorization for solving the Newton equation, at each (outer) iteration of the method. The Bunch...

The paper is concerned with multiobjective sparse optimization problems, i.e. the problem of simultaneously optimizing several objective functions and where one of these functions is the number of the non-zero components (or the ℓ-norm) of the solution. We propose to deal with the ℓ-norm by means...

This paper deals with the problem of cruise itinerary planning which plays a central role in worldwide cruise ship tourism. In particular, the Day-by-day Cruise Itinerary Optimization (DCIO) problem is considered. Assuming that a cruise has been planned in terms of homeports and journey duration,...

The l(1)-ball is a nicely structured feasible set that is widely used in many fields (e.g., machine learning, statistics and signal analysis) to enforce some sparsity in the model solutions. In this paper, we devise an active-set strategy for efficiently dealing with minimization problems over the...

In this paper, mixed-integer nonsmooth constrained optimization problems are considered, where objective/constraint functions are available only as the output of a black-box zeroth-order oracle that does not provide derivative information. A new derivative-free linesearch-based algorithmic...

In this paper we address game theory problems arising in the context of network security. In traditional game theory problems, given a defender and an attacker, one searches for mixed strategies which minimize a linear payoff functional. In the problems addressed in this paper an additional...

In this paper we consider Quadratic Programming (QP) problems with general linear constraints. We show, through a computational investigation, that a careful selection of a suitable reformulation of such problems, together with the related relaxation, and an intensive application of bound...
