Data-Driven Inverse Optimization with Incomplete Information

Daniel Kuhn, Soroosh Shafieezadeh Abadeh, Peyman Mohajerin Esfahani, Grani Adiwena Hanasusanto

In data-driven inverse optimization an observer aims to learn the preferences of an agent who solves a parametric optimization problem depending on an exogenous signal. Thus, the observer seeks the agent's objective function that best explains a historical ...
