Detailed Description

abstract interface for SumBundleHandler for the model selection and variable metric seletcion routines

In designing model selection routines for the SumBundleHandler note that model selection on basis of the previous model does not make too much sense here. SumBundle and SumBundleHandler are mainly designed for frequent switching of contributing functions, so the model is likely formed for a different function each time. It is therefore rather pointless to rely on the coefficients of the previous model. Simple geometric properties might provide better guidelines.

In contrast to the typical *ModelParametersObject this interface not only provides the abstract model selection routine select_model() but also gives access to a potentially available variable metric selection routine get_variable_metric_selection(). The reason is, that there is no explicit access to the various SumBundleHandler instances other than via the recusive use of SumBlockModel::sumbundle_contribution() that must pass on all settings to all SumBundleHandler instacnes. Therefore all relevant parameters are passed on within this one type of object.

◆ select_model()

virtual int ConicBundle::SumBundleParametersObject::select_model ( CH_Matrix_Classes::Indexmatrix model_indices,
CH_Matrix_Classes::Integer  cand_id,
const CH_Matrix_Classes::Matrix cand_y,
const MinorantBundle minorants,
CH_Matrix_Classes::Integer  aggr_index,
CH_Matrix_Classes::Real  model_maxviol,
BundleProxObject H,
BundleModel::ModelUpdate  model_update 
)
pure virtual

the SumBundleHandler calls this for selecting the next minorants for a polyhedral model

Parameters
[out]model_indicesthe indices of minorants selected for the model; index 0 is always the aggregate indicated by the input index aggr_index
[in]cand_idthe identifier of the candidate point supplied next
[in]cand_ythe candidate (differnte from the center), close to it the model should be good
[in]minorantsthe vector of MinorantPointer gives the minorants out of which the model should be selected.
[in]aggr_indexthe index of the aggregate within the minorants
[in]model_maxviola minorant violated by this would have caused a null step
[in]Hthe proximal term used for determining the given cand_y
[in]model_updateinforms about whether cand_y is the result of a null_step or descent_step or aomw other a new set up.
Returns
  • 0 on success
  • 1 on failure

Implemented in ConicBundle::SumBundleParameters.
