The National Science Foundation Division of Computing and Communication Foundations awarded Georgia TECH Research Corp $749,999 on September 1, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to develop scalable bilevel optimization algorithms and computational tools for machine learning systems. The project addresses computational bottlenecks in bilevel optimization—a mathematical structure where an overarching objective depends on a nested subordinate problem—by creating sample-efficient, first-order algorithms that integrate into modern machine learning pipelines, accommodate stochastic objectives, and scale to large problem sizes. The team will develop tools to replace computationally expensive implicit differentiation approaches and operationalize emerging Lagrangian approximations currently confined to theoretical analysis. Applications include optimizing healthcare interventions for children and diabetic patients, improving agricultural and manufacturing practices to reduce environmental impacts, and designing safer artificial intelligence algorithms for large language model alignment. The project supports graduate and undergraduate student training in use-inspired research. Performance occurs at Georgia Tech's Atlanta, Georgia campus (30332) over the period September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2030. Georgia TECH Research Corp serves as the research arm of the Georgia Institute of Technology and acts as the prime grantee on this collaborative research initiative.
