    Considering that preprocessing is an important phase in linear programming, it should be systematically more incorporated in semidefinite programming solvers. The conversion method proposed by the authors (SIAM Journal on Optimization, vol.~11, pp.~647–674, 2000, and Mathematical Programming, Series B, vol.~95, pp.~303–327, 2003) is a preprocessing of sparse semidefinite programs based on matrix completion.

    In Part I of this series of articles, we introduced a general framework of exploiting the aggregate sparsity pattern over all data matrices of large scale and sparse semidefinite programs (SDPs) when solving them by primal-dual interior-point methods. This framework is based on some results about positive semidefinite matrix completion, and it can be embodied … Read more
