arXiv:2607. 22263v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A data-driven inverse optimization problem (DDIOP) is the problem of estimating the objective-function parameters (weights) that explain observed optimal-solution data, and it arises in many applications, including integer linear programming (ILP).
arXiv:2504.09409v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we study nonconvex constrained stochastic zeroth-order optimization problems with exact constraints and stochastic objective e...
arXiv:2504. 09409v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we study nonconvex constrained stochastic zeroth-order optimization problems, for which we have access to exact information of constraints and noisy function values of the objective.
arXiv:2607. 22467v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Data scarcity poses a fundamental challenge in training generative models to produce initial guesses for parametric optimization problems that are otherwise numerically expensive to solve.

In this work, we study the oracle complexity of finding an $ε$-stationary point for nonconvex-strongly-convex (NC-SC) bilevel optimization using only first-order oracles. Existing methods achieving th...
