Strong Lagrangian Duality via Quasi-Relative Interior for Constrained Support Vector Machines

A constraint-qualification result establishing strong Lagrangian duality for nonsmooth convex optimization in Hilbert spaces using the quasi-relative interior, together with its application to a generalized support vector machine that adds a geometric constraint or regularizer on the separating hyperplane, analyzed by Lagrangian duality and solved with a subgradient and a primal-dual algorithm.
