论文摘要
本文介绍了一种开源软件，用于分布式和分散的非凸优化，称为Aladin-$α$。 Aladin- $α$是增强拉格朗日交流方向牛顿（Aladin）算法的量身定制变体的MATLAB实现。它的用户界面方便非凸线分布式优化算法的快速原型制作。包括阿拉丁的最近提出的双层变体的改进版本包括在减少信息交换的情况下实现分散的非凸优化。来自不同应用领域的示例集合，包括化学工程，机器人技术和动力系统，这是Aladin- $α$的潜力。
This paper introduces an open-source software for distributed and decentralized non-convex optimization named ALADIN-$α$. ALADIN-$α$ is a MATLAB implementation of tailored variants of the Augmented Lagrangian Alternating Direction Inexact Newton (ALADIN) algorithm. Its user interface is convenient for rapid prototyping of non-convex distributed optimization algorithms. An improved version of the recently proposed bi-level variant of ALADIN is included enabling decentralized non-convex optimization with reduced information exchange. A collection of examples from different applications fields including chemical engineering, robotics, and power systems underpins the potential of ALADIN-$α$.
