Bilevel Optimization is a branch of optimization, which contains a nested optimization problem within the constraints of the outer optimization problem. The outer optimization task is usually referred as the upper level task, and the nested inner optimization task is referred as the lower level task. The lower level problem appears as a constraint, such that only an optimal solution to the lower level optimization problem is a possible feasible candidate to the upper level optimization problem.

Bilevel Optimization: Convergence Analysis and Enhanced Design

junjieyang97/stocbio_hp 15 Oct 2020

For the AID-based method, we orderwisely improve the previous convergence rate analysis due to a more practical parameter selection as well as a warm start strategy, and for the ITD-based method we establish the first theoretical convergence rate.

Bilevel Optimization with a Lower-level Contraction: Optimal Sample Complexity without Warm-start

csml-iit-ucl/bioptexps NeurIPS 2023

We analyse a general class of bilevel problems, in which the upper-level problem consists in the minimization of a smooth objective function and the lower-level problem is to find the fixed point of a smooth contraction map.
