Detailed Description

template<class Real>
class ROL::SecondOrderCVaR< Real >

Provides an interface for the risk measure associated with the super quantile quadrangle.

The risk measure associated with the super quantile quadrangle is defined as

\[ \mathcal{R}(X) = \frac{1}{1-\beta}\int_\beta^1\mathrm{CVaR}_{\alpha}(X) \,\mathrm{d}\alpha \]

where \(0 \le \beta < 1\) and the conditional value-at-risk (CVaR) with confidence level \(0\le \alpha < 1\) is

\[ \mathrm{CVaR}_\alpha(X) = \inf_{t\in\mathbb{R}} \left\{ t + \frac{1}{1-\alpha} \mathbb{E}\left[(X-t)_+\right] \right\} \]

where \((x)_+ = \max\{0,x\}\). If the distribution of \(X\) is continuous, then \(\mathrm{CVaR}_{\alpha}(X)\) is the conditional expectation of \(X\) exceeding the \(\alpha\)-quantile of \(X\) and the optimal \(t\) is the \(\alpha\)-quantile. Additionally, \(\mathcal{R}\) is a law-invariant coherent risk measure.

ROL implements \(\mathcal{R}\) by approximating the integral with Gauss-Legendre or Fejer 2 quadrature. The corresponding quadrature points and weights are then used to construct a ROL::MixedQuantileQuadrangle risk measure. When using derivative-based optimization, the user can provide a smooth approximation of \((\cdot)_+\) using the ROL::PlusFunction class.
