Abstract: This paper is devoted to the study of solving method for a type of inverse linear semidefinite programming problem in which both the objective parameter and the right-hand side parameter of the linear semidefinite programs are required to adjust. Since such kind of inverse problem is equivalent to a mathematical program with semidefinite cone complementarity constraints which is a rather difficult problem, we reformulate it as a nonconvex semi-definte programming problem by introducing a nonsmooth partial penalty function to penalize the complementarity constraint. The penalized problem is actually a nonsmooth DC programming problem which can be solved by a sequential convex program approach. Convergence analysis of the penalty models and the sequential convex program approach are shown. Numerical results are reported to demonstrate the efficiency of our approach.
