Mathematical Optimization & Why Convexity Is the Watershed
Samsung Professor in the School of Engineering
1:20:32·2008·graduate level
Legendary graduate engineering teaching: Boyd blends razor-sharp mathematical precision with street-smart engineering intuition on recognizing hidden convex structure.
Stephen Boyd echoes Rockafellar's dictum—the real watershed in optimization isn't linearity vs. nonlinearity, it's convexity vs. nonconvexity—and surveys least-squares, LP, and general convex programming.
