On the approximability of minmax (regret) network optimization problems
In this paper the minmax (regret) versions of some basic polynomially solvable deterministic network problems are discussed. It is shown that if the number of scenarios is unbounded, then the problems under consideration are not approximable within logK for any ǫ > 0 unless NP ⊆ DTIME(n log ), where K is the number of scenarios.
متن کاملMinmax regret combinatorial optimization problems: an Algorithmic Perspective
Uncertainty in optimization is not a new ingredient. Diverse models considering uncertainty have been developed over the last 40 years. In our paper we essentially discuss a particular uncertainty model associated with combinatorial optimization problems, developed in the 90’s and broadly studied in the past years. This approach named minmax regret (in particular our emphasis is on the robust d...
متن کاملMinmax regret solutions for minimax optimization problems with uncertainty
We propose a general approach for nding minmax regret solutions for a class of combinatorial optimization problems with an objective function of minimax type and uncertain objective function coe cients. The approach is based on reducing a problem with uncertainty to a number of problems without uncertainty. The method is illustrated on bottleneck combinatorial optimization problems, minimax mul...
متن کاملSome tractable instances of interval data minmax regret problems
In this paper, we provide polynomial and pseudopolynomial algorithms for classes of particular instances of interval data minmax regret graph problems. These classes are defined using a parameter that measures the distance from well known solvable instances. Tractable cases occur when the parameter is bounded by a constant.
