We show that the sparsity structure alone yields a closed-form Newton search direction for the generic primal-dual interior point method. Computational tests show that the interior point method consistently outperforms the best specialized methods when no additional algebraic structure is available.}, number={6-7}, journal={OPERATIONS RESEARCH LETTERS}, author={Wright, Stephen E. and Rohal, James J.}, year={2014}, month={Sep}, pages={404–408} }
