Likewise, if the " j "-th slack variable of the dual is not zero, then the " j "-th variable of the primal is equal to zero.

:Assuming I've correctly interpreted all your terms, this is just a basic linear programming problem ( with slack variables ), and thus the kind of thing the simplex algorithm was written for.
23.
With " v " the Lagrange multipliers on the non-negativity constraints, " ? " the multipliers on the inequality constraints, and " s " the slack variables for the inequality constraints.
24.
Slack variables are " dual " to generalized barycentric coordinates, and, dually to generalized barycentric coordinates ( which are not unique but can all be realized ), are uniquely determined, but cannot all be realized.
25.
Note the effects of slack variables \ boldsymbol { \ xi } \ geq 0 : their one-norm is penalized in the objective function by a constant factor D, which if small enough always leads to a primal feasible linear program.
26.
This map is one-to-one ( slack variables are uniquely determined ) but not onto ( not all combinations can be realized ), and is expressed in terms of the " constraints " ( linear functionals, covectors ).
27.
The primal linear program of LPBoost, optimizing over the non-negative weight vector \ boldsymbol { \ alpha }, the non-negative vector \ boldsymbol { \ xi } of slack variables and the " margin " \ rho is the following.
28.
Dual to generalized barycentric coordinates are slack variables, which measure by how much margin a point satisfies the linear constraints, and gives an embedding P \ hookrightarrow ( \ mathbf { R } _ { \ geq 0 } ) ^ f into the " f "-orthant, where " f " is the number of faces ( dual to the vertices ).
