Improved Integer Programming Approaches for Chance-Constrained Stochastic Programming
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Chance-Constrained Stochastic Programming (CCSP) is one of the models for decision making under uncertainty. In this paper, we consider the special case of the CCSP in which only the righthand side vector is random with a discrete distribution having a finite support. The unit commitment problem is one of the applications of the special case of the CCSP. Existing methods for exactly solving the CCSP problems require an enumeration of scenarios when they model a CCSP problem using a Mixed Integer Programming (MIP). We show how to reduce the number of scenarios enumerated in the MIP model. In addition, we give another compact MIP formulation to approximately solve the CCSP problems.

A Chance Constrained Integer Programming Model for Open Pit Long-Term Production Planning
The mine production planning defines a sequence of block extraction to obtain the highest NPV under a number of constraints. Mathematical programming has become a widespread approach to optimize production planning, for open pit mines since the 1960s. However, the previous and existing models are found to be limited in their ability to explicitly incorporate the ore grade uncertainty into the p...
