Stochastic Penalty-Barrier Method for Constrained Machine Learning
Quick summary
arXiv:2605.18618v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Constrained Machine Learning (CML) enables fairness-aware training, physics-informed neural networks, and integration of symbolic domain knowledge into statistical models. In this work, we introduce the Stochastic Penalty-Barrier Method (SPBM) for CML problems. SPBM extends classical penalty and barrier methods by incorporating an exponential averaging of the dual variables, a stabilized penalty schedule, and the Moreau envelope to handle non-smoothness. We analyze the bias that mini-batching introduces in the barrier function and show
