Quadratic programming is a mathematical optimization problem that seeks to minimize or maximize a quadratic function subject to linear constraints on the variables. It can be formulated by assuming x represents variables and finding values of x that minimize a quadratic function subject to linear inequality and equality constraints. There are many solver codes and packages available to solve quadratic programming problems, including commercial solvers like CPLEX and open source options like QPOPT.

2. La programación cuadrática es un problema de optimización matemática. La cual busca minimizar o maximizar una función cuadrática con diferentes variables sujeto a limitaciones lineales sobre estas variables. Definición

3. La programación cuadrática se puede formular de la siguiente forma: Se asume que x representa . .Q es una matriz simétrica nxn y que c es cualquier vector nx1.

4. Examples Find values of x that minimize subject to x1 + x2 ≤ 2–x1 + 2x2 ≤ 22x1 + x2 ≤ 30 ≤ x1, 0 ≤ x2. First, note that this function can be written in matrix notation as where Enter these coefficient matrices. H = [1 -1; -1 2] f = [-2; -6] A = [1 1; -1 2; 2 1] b = [2; 2; 3] lb = zeros(2,1) Next, invoke a quadratic programming routine. [x,fval,exitflag,output,lambda] = ... quadprog(H,f,A,b,[],[],lb) This generates the solution x = 0.6667 1.3333 fval = -8.2222 exitflag = 1 output = iterations: 3 algorithm: 'medium-scale: active-set' firstorderopt: [] cgiterations: [] message: 'Optimization terminated.' lambda = lower: [2x1 double] upper: [2x1 double] eqlin: [0x1 double] ineqlin: [3x1 double] lambda.ineqlinans = 3.1111 0.4444 0 lambda.lowerans = 0 0 Nonzero elements of the vectors in the fields of lambda indicate active constraints at the solution. In this case, the first and second inequality constraints (in lambda.ineqlin) are active constraints (i.e., the solution is on their constraint boundaries). For this problem, all the lower bounds are inactive Ejemplos
