Subgradient approach

Opened this issue · 1 comments

Both L_1 and L_∞ optimizations can be reformulated to linear programs, which should be easier to solve.

Can we do the same kind of reformulation for a mixed optimization target?

Linear programming is also implemented in scipy.optimize as scipy.optimize.linprog:
