WHAT DOES BARRIER METHOD MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Interior point method

Interior point methods are a certain class of algorithms to solve linear and nonlinear convex optimization problems. Example solution The interior point method was invented by John von Neumann. Von Neumann suggested a new method of linear programming, using the homogeneous linear system of Gordan which was later popularized by Karmarkar's algorithm, developed by Narendra Karmarkar in 1984 for linear programming. The method consists of a self-concordant barrier function used to encode the convex set. Contrary to the simplex method, it reaches an optimal solution by traversing the interior of the feasible region. Any convex optimization problem can be transformed into minimizing a linear function over a convex set by converting to the epigraph form. The idea of encoding the feasible set using a barrier and designing barrier methods was studied by Anthony V. Fiacco, Garth P. McCormick, and others in the early 1960s. These ideas were mainly developed for general nonlinear programming, but they were later abandoned due to the presence of more competitive methods for this class of problems.
