分块大规模优化的ADMM-SQP型算法理论与应用

The alternating direction methods of multiplier (ADMM) and the sequence quadratic programming (SQP) type algorithms are two important methods and subject foreland for researching and designing effective algorithms for solving constrained optimization. However, each of the two types of algorithms has its advantages and disadvantages. ADMM needs to solve minimization subproblems exactly at each iteration. For large-scale optimization, SQP type algorithms need to solve the same scale quadratic programming (QP) subproblems at each iteration. Both of the two above are difficult and costly. In this project, we will embed the idea of ADMM in solving the QP subproblems of SQP type algorithms, and propose ADMM-SQP type algorithms and theory for block large-scale optimization. (a) With the help of the idea of ADMM and the block structure of the discussed optimization, the direction finding subproblems of SQP methods, stabilized SQP (sSQP) methods and sequential quadratic constrained quadratic programming (SQCQP) methods will be decomposed into several small-scale QPs. (b) Based on the Augmented Lagrange function, the associated appropriate and effective merit functions will be constructed, and then some valid ADMM-SQP, ADMM-sSQP, ADMM-SQCQP and other ADMM-SQP type algorithms will be presented. (c) The theoretical characteristics will be analyzed, and the numerical efficiency of the proposed algorithms will be tested. (d) The algorithms will be applied to study and solve the optimal power flow, unit combination, economic dispatch and other practical problems.

乘子交替方向法(ADMM))和序列二次规划(SQP)型算法是研究和设计约束优化有效算法的重要方法及学科前沿, 然而其各有利弊。ADMM迭代中需精确求解交替子问题；对于大规模优化，SQP型算法迭代需求解同等规模的二次规划(QP)子问题等，这些都是困难和高耗费的工作。本项将在SQP型算法QP子问题的求解中植入ADMM思想，创新分块大规模优化的ADMM-SQP型算法与理论。(a)借助ADMM思想和分块结构，将SQP、稳定SQP(sSQP)、序列二次约束二次规划(SQCQP)等SQP型算法的搜索方向子问题分解为若干小规模QP。(b)基于增广Lagrane函数，创新合适的效益函数,进而设计出有效的ADMM-SQP、ADMM-sSQP、ADMM-SQCQP等ADMM-SQP型算法。(c)分析ADMM-SQP型算法的理论特征，测试其数值效果。(d)将算法用于研究最优潮流和机组组合等实际问题。
