Convex optimization easy

  • Is convex optimization easy?

    1 Answer.
    No, not all convex programs are easy to solve.
    There are intractable convex programs.
    Roughly speaking, for an optimization problem over a convex set X to be easy, you have to have some kind of machinery available (an oracle) which efficiently can decide if a given solution x is in X.May 27, 2019.

Mar 2, 2020As someone else noted, convexity makes optimization problems more tractable (easier). As a result, some techniques for solving nonconvex problems involveĀ  How to go about learning convex optimization - QuoraWhat are remarkable algorithms/methods for convex optimization?What are some convex optimization tutorials for dummies? - QuoraWhy should I take a course on convex optimization? - QuoraMore results from www.quora.com
