چکیده

Knapsack cover inequalities are among the most frequently used cuts for solving 0-1 linear programs. In this paper, we propose adaptations of these classical valid inequalities to the case when knapsack items have uncertain weights. For modeling uncertainty, we focus on the robust framework proposed by Bertsimas and Sim (2003). Then, a robust version of the bandwidth packing problem is considered, when traffic demands in a network are subject to incertainty. Numerical experiments show the dramatic improvement brought by using the proposed cover inequalities when solving this problem.

A note on polyhedral aspects of a robust knapsack problem

The robust optimization framework proposed by Bertsimas and Sim can take account of data uncertainty in linear programs. The current paper investigates the polyhedral impacts of this robust model for the 0-1 knapsack problem. In particular, classical cover cuts are adapted to provide valid inequalities for the robust knapsack problem. The strength of the proposed inequalities is highlighted fro...

Recoverable robust knapsacks: the discrete scenario case

Admission control problems have been studied extensively in the past. In a typical setting, resources like bandwidth have to be distributed to the different customers according to their demands maximizing the profit of the company. Yet, in real-world applications those demands are deviating and in order to satisfy their service requirements often a robust approach is chosen wasting benefits for...

A Robust Knapsack Based Constrained Portfolio Optimization

Many portfolio optimization problems deal with allocation of assets which carry a relatively high market price. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the integer value of assets when we deal with portfolio optimization. In addition, one of the main concerns with most portfolio optimization is associated with the type of constraints considered in different models. In many cases, the resulted p...

Design of robust carrier tracking systems in high dynamic and high noise conditions, with emphasis on neuro-fuzzy controller

The robust carrier tracking is defined as the ability of a receiver to determine the phase and frequency of the input carrier signal in unusual conditions such as signal loss, input signal fading, high receiver dynamic, or other destructive effects of propagation. An implementation of tight tracking can be understood in terms of adopting a very narrow loop bandwidth that contradict with the req...
