Computing Possibly Optimal Solutions for Multi-Objective Constraint Optimisation with Tradeoffs

چکیده
Computing the set of optimal solutions for a multiobjective constraint optimisation problem can be computationally very challenging. Also, when solutions are only partially ordered, there can be a number of different natural notions of optimality, one of the most important being the notion of Possibly Optimal, i.e., optimal in at least one scenario compatible with the inter-objective tradeoffs. We develop an AND/OR Branch-and-Bound algorithm for computing the set of Possibly Optimal solutions, and compare variants of the algorithm experimentally.

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Integrated Benders Decomposition Algorithm and Epsilon Constraint Method for Multi-Objective Facility Location Problem under Demand Uncertainty
One of the most challenging issues in multi-objective problems is finding Pareto optimal points. This paper describes an algorithm based on Benders Decomposition Algorithm (BDA) which tries to find Pareto solutions. For this aim, a multi-objective facility location allocation model is proposed. In this case, an integrated BDA and epsilon constraint method are proposed and it is shown that how P...

During the last decade, the stringent pressures from environmental and social requirements have spurred an interest in designing a reverse logistics (RL) network. The success of a logistics system may depend on the decisions of the facilities locations and vehicle routings. The location-routing problem (LRP) simultaneously locates the facilities and designs the travel routes for vehicles among ...

متن کاملMulti-Objective Constraint Optimization with Tradeoffs
In this paper, we consider the extension of multi-objective constraint optimization algorithms to the case where there are additional tradeoffs, reducing the number of optimal solutions. We focus especially on branch-and-bound algorithms which use a mini-buckets algorithm for generating the upper bound at each node (in the context of maximizing values of objectives). Since the main bottleneck o...
