ALADIN- (Formula presented.) is a MATLAB implementation of tailored variants of the Augmented Lagrangian Alternating Direction Inexact Newton (ALADIN) algorithm. It is user interface is convenient for rapid prototyping of non-convex distributed optimization algorithms. An improved version of the recently proposed bi-level variant of ALADIN is included enabling decentralized non-convex optimization with reduced information exchange. A collection of examples from different applications fields including chemical engineering, robotics, and power systems underpins the potential of ALADIN- (Formula presented.).en1099-151420221422https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/MathematicsJournal Article10.15480/882.919310.1002/oca.281110.15480/882.9193Journal Article
