In the last few years, Algorithms for Convex Optimization have revolutionized algorithm design, both for discrete and continuous optimization problems. For problems like maximum flow, maximum matching, and submodular function minimization, the fastest algorithms involve essential methods such as gradient descent, mirror descent, interior point methods, and ellipsoid methods. The goal of this self-contained book is to enable researchers and professionals in computer science, data science, and machine learning to gain an in-depth understanding of these algorithms. The text emphasizes how to derive key algorithms for convex optimization from first principles and how to establish precise running time bounds. This modern text explains the success of these algorithms in problems of discrete optimization, as well as how these methods have significantly pushed the state of the art of convex optimization itself.
Nisheeth K. Vishnoi is a Professor of Computer Science at Yale University. His research areas include theoretical computer science, optimization, and machine learning. He is a recipient of the Best Paper Award at IEEE FOCS in 2005, the IBM Research Pat Goldberg Memorial Award in 2006, the Indian National Science Academy Young Scientist Award in 2011, and the Best Paper award at ACM FAccT in 2019. He was elected an ACM Fellow in 2019. He obtained a bachelor degree in Computer Science and Engineering from IIT Bombay and a Ph. D. in Algorithms, Combinatorics and Optimization from Georgia Institute of Technology.
