New SDP solver SDPLR+ scales to million-variable problems

Researchers have developed a new semidefinite programming (SDP) solver called SDPLR+ that significantly improves scalability and speed for large-scale problems. This solver optimizes over low-rank factorizations, reducing storage costs compared to traditional methods. SDPLR+ dynamically adjusts the rank during optimization, enabling early termination and faster computation, and has demonstrated effectiveness on problems with up to million-by-million decision variables.

    Suboptimality bounds for trace-bounded SDPs enable a faster and scalable low-rank SDP solver SDPLR+

    arXiv:2406.10407v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Semidefinite programs (SDPs) and their solvers are powerful tools with many applications in machine learning and data science. Designing scalable SDP solvers is challenging because by standard the positive semidefinite dec…
