چکیده

We consider optimization problems with some binary variables, where the objective function is linear in these variables. The stability region of a given solution is the polyhedral set of objective coefficients for which the solution is optimal. Knowledge of this set provides valuable information for sensitivity analysis and re-optimization. An exact description of the stability region may require an exponential number of inequalities. We develop polyhedral inner and outer approximations of linear size. Furthermore, when a new objective function is not in the stability region, we produce a list of high-quality solutions that can be used as a quick heuristic or as a warm start for future solves.

On the Value of Binary Expansions for General Mixed-Integer Linear Programs

We study the use of binary variables in reformulating general mixed-integer linear programs. We show that binary reformulations result in problems for which almost all the binary variables replacing a general integer variable need to be explored during branching. We also give computational results on the performance of such reformulations in solving the mixed-integer programs, which support our...

A new method to determine a well-dispersed subsets of non-dominated vectors for MOMILP ‎problem

Multi-objective optimization is the simultaneous consideration of two or more objective functions that are completely or partially inconflict with each other. The optimality of such optimizations is largely defined through the Pareto optimality. Multiple objective integer linear programs (MOILP) are special cases of multiple criteria decision making problems. Numerous algorithms have been desig...

Generation of a reduced first - level mixed integer programmimg problem

We introduce a new way of generating cutting planes of a mixed integer programme by way of taking binary variables. Four binary variables are introduced to form quartic inequalities, which results in a reduced first-level mixed integer programme. A new way of weakening the inequalities is presented. An algorithm to carryout the separation of the inequalities, which are exponential in number, is...

Efficient storage of Pareto points in biobjective mixed integer programming

In biobjective mixed integer linear programs (BOMILPs), two linear objectives are minimized over a polyhedron while restricting some of the variables to be integer. Since many of the techniques for finding or approximating the Pareto set of a BOMILP use and update a subset of nondominated solutions, it is highly desirable to efficiently store this subset. We present a new data structure, a vari...

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS OF EFFICIENT AND INEFFICIENT UNITS IN INTEGER-VALUED DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS

One of the issues in Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is sensitivity and stability region of the speci c decision making unit (DMU), included ecient and inecient DMUs. In sensitivity analysis of ecient DMUs,the largest region should be found namely stability region thatdata variations are only for ecient DMU under evaluation and the data for the remainingDMUs are assumed xed. Also ecient DMU u...
