Convex optimization is a fundamental branch of optimization. It provides a suitable framework for many problems, classical (such as image reconstruction) and contemporary (such as semidefinite programming). In this minisymposium, the speakers will discuss convex optimization problems and associated objects from a computational point of view. They will focus on the symbolic and numerical computation of Fenchel conjugates; the symbolic computation of derivatives of functions on spaces of symmetric matrices; and Fenchel-duality based computational approach to image reconstruction.
