• Abstract: An integrated optimization method based on the constrained multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA) and non-intrusive polynomial chaos expansion (PCE) is proposed, which solves robust multi-objective optimization problems under time-series dynamics. The constraints in such problems are difficult to handle, not only because the number of the dynamic constraints is multiplied by the discretized time steps but also because each of them is probabilistic. The proposed method rewrites a robust formulation into a deterministic problem via the PCE, and then sequentially processes the generated constraints in population generation, trajectory generation, and evaluation by the MOEA. As a case study, the landing trajectory design of supersonic transport (SST) with wind uncertainty is optimized. Results demonstrate the quantitative influence of the constraint values over the optimized solution sets and corresponding trajectories, proposing robust flight controls.

  Constrained multi-objective optimization problems (CMOPs) pervade real-world applications in science, engineering, and design. We present the first of its kind evolutionary optimization framework, inspired by the principles of the alternating direction method of multipliers that decouples objective and constraint functions. Our framework tackles CMOPs with unknown constraints by reformulating the original problem into an additive form of two subproblems, each of which is allotted a dedicated evolutionary population.

• Analyzing and Enhancing the Backward-Pass Convergence of Unrolled Optimization [50.38518771642365]
  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.

  The problem of constrained decision process (CMDP) is investigated, where an agent aims to maximize the expected accumulated discounted reward subject to multiple constraints. A new utilities-dual convex approach is proposed with novel integration of three ingredients: regularized policy, dual regularizer, and Nesterov's gradient descent dual. This is the first demonstration that nonconcave CMDP problems can attain the lower bound of $mathcal O (1/epsilon)$ for all complexity optimization subject to convex constraints.
