Abstract

Semi-infinite programming (SIP) problems can be efficiently solved by reduction type methods. Here, we present a new reduction method for SIP, where the multi-local optimization is carried out with a multi-local branch-and-bound method, the reduced (finite) problem is approximately solved by an interior point method, and the global convergence is promoted through a two-dimensional filter line search. Numerical experiments with a set of well-known problems are shown.
