• Abstract: In this paper, we propose a machine learning (ML) method to learn how to solve a generic constrained continuous optimization problem. To the best of our knowledge, the generic methods that learn to optimize, focus on unconstrained optimization problems and those dealing with constrained problems are not easy-to-generalize. This approach is quite useful in optimization tasks where the problem's parameters constantly change and require resolving the optimization task per parameter update. In such problems, the computational complexity of optimization algorithms such as gradient descent or interior point method preclude near-optimal designs in real-time applications. In this paper, we propose an unsupervised deep learning (DL) solution for solving constrained optimization problems in real-time by relegating the main computation load to offline training phase. This paper's main contribution is proposing a method for enforcing the equality and inequality constraints to the DL-generated solutions for generic optimization tasks.

  The integration of constrained optimization models as components in deep networks has led to promising advances on many specialized learning tasks. A central challenge in this setting is backpropagation through the solution of an optimization problem, which often lacks a closed form. This paper provides theoretical insights into the backward pass of unrolled optimization, showing that it is equivalent to the solution of a linear system by a particular iterative method. A system called Folded Optimization is proposed to construct more efficient backpropagation rules from unrolled solver implementations.

  Solving optimization problems with unknown parameters requires learning a predictive model to predict the values of the unknown parameters and then solving the problem using these values. Recent work has shown that including the optimization problem as a layer in a complex training model pipeline results in predictions of iteration of unobserved decision making. We show that we can improve solution quality by learning a low-dimensional surrogate model of a large optimization problem.
