A Shrinkage Path Heuristic for Wasserstein Distributionally Robust Optimization

Wasserstein distributionally robust optimization (DRO) is a versatile and widely adopted framework for decision-making under uncertainty, yet its standard deterministic reformulations generally contain non-convex inner subproblems that are challenging to solve. To address this issue, we propose a shrinkage path heuristic that reduces the solution of a DRO problem to a one-dimensional search over the … Read more
