The Maros and Meszaros Convex Quadratic Programming Test Problem Set


The Maros and Meszaros test set (mirror) is a collection of convex quadratic programming examples from a variety of sources. The examples are available in QPS format, which is a subset of the SIF format used by CUTEst. Thus, the Maros and Meszaros set provide a further collection of interesting examples for those who have CUTEst interfaces to their optimization packages. See

The complete set

The test problem set is available in a compressed (gzipped) tar file (approximately 29.6 Mbytes in total).
