New Stochastic Penalty-Barrier Method for Constrained Machine Learning

Researchers have introduced the Stochastic Penalty-Barrier Method (SPBM), a novel approach for Constrained Machine Learning (CML). SPBM enhances classical methods by incorporating exponential averaging of dual variables, a stabilized penalty schedule, and the Moreau envelope to address non-smoothness. The method analyzes the bias introduced by mini-batching in barrier functions and demonstrates that the transformed problem's feasible set remains within the original constraints. Experiments show SPBM is competitive with existing CML techniques, particularly in fairness and physics-informed neural networks, with runtime largely independent of constraint numbers. AI
