An Efficient Unsupervised Framework for Convex Quadratic Programs via Deep Unrolling

Quadratic programs (QPs) arise in various domains such as machine learning, finance, and control. Recently, learning-enhanced primal-dual hybrid gradient (PDHG) methods have shown great potential in addressing large-scale linear programs; however, this approach has not been extended to QPs. In this work, we focus on unrolling "PDQP", a PDHG algorithm specialized for convex QPs. Specifically, we propose a neural network model called "PDQP-net" to learn optimal QP solutions. Theoretically, we demonstrate that a PDQP-net of polynomial size can align with the PDQP algorithm, returning optimal primal-dual solution pairs. We propose an unsupervised method that incorporates KKT conditions into the loss function. Unlike the standard learning-to-optimize framework that requires optimization solutions generated by solvers, our unsupervised method adjusts the network weights directly from the evaluation of the primal-dual gap. This method has two benefits over supervised learning: first, it helps generate better primal-dual gap since the primal-dual gap is in the objective function; second, it does not require solvers. We show that PDQP-net trained in this unsupervised manner can effectively approximate optimal QP solutions. Extensive numerical experiments confirm our findings, indicating that using PDQP-net predictions to warm-start PDQP can achieve up to 45% acceleration on QP instances. Moreover, it achieves 14% to 31% acceleration on out-of-distribution instances.
