A New Approach to the Stable Set Problem Based on Ellipsoids
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new exact approach to the stable set problem is presented, which attempts to avoids the pitfalls of existing approaches based on linear and semidefinite programming. The method begins by constructing an ellipsoid that contains the stable set polytope and has the property that the upper bound obtained by optimising over it is equal to the Lovász theta number. This ellipsoid is then used to derive cutting planes, which can be used within a linear programming-based branch-and-cut algorithm. Preliminary computational results indicate that the cutting planes are strong and easy to generate.

A New Approach Generating Robust and Stable Schedules in m-Machine Flow Shop Scheduling Problems: A Case Study
This paper considers a scheduling problem with uncertain processing times and machine breakdowns in industriall/office workplaces and solves it via a novel robust optimization method. In the traditional robust optimization, the solution robustness is maintained only for a specific set of scenarios, which may worsen the situation for new scenarios. Thus, a two-stage predictive algorithm is prop...

Data visualization is the process of transforming data, information, and knowledge into visual form, making use of humans’ natural visual capabilities which reveals relationships in data sets that are not evident from the raw data, by using mathematical techniques to reduce the number of dimensions in the data set while preserving the relevant inherent properties. In this paper, we formulated d...
متن کاملA new metaheuristic genetic-based placement algorithm for 2D strip packing
Given a container of fixed width, infinite height and a set of rectangular block, the 2D-strip packing problem consists of orthogonally placing all the rectangles such that the height is minimized. The position is subject to confinement of no overlapping of blocks. The problem is a complex NP-hard combinatorial optimization, thus a heuristic based on genetic algorithm is proposed to solve it. I...

متن کاملA new approach based on state conversion to stability analysis and control design of switched nonlinear cascade systems
In this paper, the problems of control and stabilization of switched nonlinear cascade systems is investigated. The so called simultaneous domination limitation (SDL) is introduced in previous works to assure the existence of a common quadratic Lyapunov function (CQLF) for switched nonlinear cascade systems. According to this idea, if all subsystems of a switched system satisfy the SDL, a CQLF ...
