چکیده
This computational paper presents a method to solve k-cluster problems exactly by intersecting semidefinite and polyhedral relaxations. Our algorithm uses a generic branch-and-bound method featuring an improved semidefinite bounding procedure. Extensive numerical experiments show that this algorithm outperforms the best known methods both in time and ability to solve large instances. For the first time, numerical results are reported for k-cluster problems on unstructured graphs with 160 vertices.

متن کاملA branch-and-cut algorithm based on semidefinite programming for the minimum k-partition problem
The minimum k-partition (MkP) problem is the problem of partitioning the set of vertices of a graph into k disjoint subsets so as to minimize the total weight of the edges joining vertices in the same partition. The main contribution of this paper is the design and implementation of a branch-and-cut algorithm based on semidefinite programming (SBC) for the MkP problem. The two key ingredients f...
متن کاملAn Interior Point Algorithm for Solving Convex Quadratic Semidefinite Optimization Problems Using a New Kernel Function
In this paper, we consider convex quadratic semidefinite optimization problems and provide a primal-dual Interior Point Method (IPM) based on a new kernel function with a trigonometric barrier term. Iteration complexity of the algorithm is analyzed using some easy to check and mild conditions. Although our proposed kernel function is neither a Self-Regular (SR) fun...
متن کاملSolving k-cluster problems to optimality with semidefinite programming
This paper deals with the computation of exact solutions of a classical NP-hard problem in combinatorial optimization, the k-cluster problem. This problem consists in finding a heaviest subgraph with k nodes in an edge weighted graph. We present a branch-and-bound algorithm that applies a novel bounding procedure, based on recent semidefinite programming techniques. We use new semidefinite boun...
متن کاملA branch and bound algorithm to minimize the total weighted number of tardy jobs and delivery costs with late deliveries for a supply chain scheduling problem
In this paper, we study a supply chain scheduling problem that simultaneously considers production scheduling and product delivery. jobs have to be scheduled on a single machine and delivered to customers for further processing in batches. The objective is to minimize the sum of the total weighted number of tardy jobs and the delivery costs. In this paper, we present a heuristic algorithm (HA...
