The multi-objective optimization is to optimize several objective functions over a common feasible set. Since the objectives usually do not share a common optimizer, people often consider (weakly) Pareto points. This paper studies multi-objective optimization problems that are given by polynomial functions. First, we study the convex geometry for (weakly) Pareto values and give a convex representation for them. Linear scalarization problems (LSPs) and Chebyshev scalarization problems (CSPs) are typical approaches for getting (weakly) Pareto points. For LSPs, we show how to use tight relaxations to solve them, how to detect existence or nonexistence of proper weights. For CSPs, we show how to solve them by moment relaxations. Moreover, we show how to check if a given point is a (weakly) Pareto point or not and how to detect existence or nonexistence of (weakly) Pareto points. We also study how to detect unboundedness of polynomial optimization, which is used to detect nonexistence of proper weights or (weakly) Pareto points.

This paper studies stochastic optimization problems with polynomials. We propose an optimization model with sample averages and perturbations. The Lasserre type Moment-SOS relaxations are used to solve the sample average optimization. Properties of t he optimization and its relaxations are studied. Numerical experiments are presented.

We describe a new approach to certifying the global nonnegativity of multivariate polynomials by solving hyperbolic optimization problems---a class of convex optimization problems that generalize semidefinite programs. We show how to produce families of nonnegative polynomials (which we call hyperbolic certificates of nonnegativity) from any hyperbolic polynomial. We investigate the pairs $(n,d)$ for which there is a hyperbolic polynomial of degree $d$ in $n$ variables such that an associated hyperbolic certificate of nonnegativity is not a sum of squares. If $dgeq 4$ we show that this occurs whenever $ngeq 4$. In the degree three case, we find an explicit hyperbolic cubic in $43$ variables that gives hyperbolic certificates that are not sums of squares. As a corollary, we obtain the first known hyperbolic cubic no power of which has a definite determinantal representation. Our approach also allows us to show that, given a cubic $p$, and a direction $e$, the decision problem Is $p$ hyperbolic with respect to $e$? is co-NP hard.
Significant development of communication technology over the past few years has motivated research in multi-modal summarization techniques. A majority of the previous works on multi-modal summarization focus on text and images. In this paper, we prop ose a novel extractive multi-objective optimization based model to produce a multi-modal summary containing text, images, and videos. Important objectives such as intra-modality salience, cross-modal redundancy and cross-modal similarity are optimized simultaneously in a multi-objective optimization framework to produce effective multi-modal output. The proposed model has been evaluated separately for different modalities, and has been found to perform better than state-of-the-art approaches.
There has been work on exploiting polynomial approximation to solve distributed nonconvex optimization problems involving univariate objectives. This idea facilitates arbitrarily precise global optimization without requiring local evaluations of grad ients at every iteration. Nonetheless, there remains a gap between existing theoretical guarantees and diverse practical requirements for dependability, notably privacy preservation and robustness to network imperfections (e.g., time-varying directed communication and asynchrony). To fill this gap and keep the above strengths, we propose a Dependable Chebyshev-Proxy-based distributed Optimization Algorithm (D-CPOA). Specifically, to ensure both accuracy of solutions and privacy of local objectives, a new privacy-preserving mechanism is designed. This mechanism leverages the randomness in blockwise insertions of perturbed vector states and hence provides an improved privacy guarantee compared to the literature in terms of ($alpha,beta$)-data-privacy. Furthermore, to gain robustness to various network imperfections, we use the push-sum consensus protocol as a backbone, discuss its specific enhancements, and evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm accordingly. Thanks to the linear consensus-based structure of iterations, we avoid the privacy-accuracy trade-off and the bother of selecting appropriate step-sizes in different settings. We provide rigorous analysis of the accuracy, dependability and complexity. It is shown that the advantages brought by the idea of polynomial approximation are maintained when all the above requirements exist. Simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed algorithm.
Exactly solving multi-objective integer programming (MOIP) problems is often a very time consuming process, especially for large and complex problems. Parallel computing has the potential to significantly reduce the time taken to solve such problems, but only if suitable algorithms are used. The first of our new algorithms follows a simple technique that demonstrates impressive performance for its design. We then go on to introduce new theory for developing more efficient parallel algorithms. The theory utilises elements of the symmetric group to apply a permutation to the objective functions to assign different workloads, and applies to algorithms that order the objective functions lexicographically. As a result, information and updated bounds can be shared in real time, creating a synergy between threads. We design and implement two algorithms that take advantage of such theory. To properly analyse the running time of our three algorithms, we compare them against two existing algorithms from the literature, and against using multiple threads within our chosen IP solver, CPLEX. This survey of six different parallel algorithms, the first of its kind, demonstrates the advantages of parallel computing. Across all problem types tested, our new algorithms are on par with existing algorithms on smaller cases and massively outperform the competition on larger cases. These new algorithms, and freely available implementations, allows the investigation of complex MOIP problems with four or more objectives.
