Perspective Reformulation and Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we survey recent work on the perspective reformulation approach that generates tight, tractable relaxations for convex mixed integer nonlinear programs (MINLP)s. This preprocessing technique is applicable to cases where the MINLP contains binary indicator variables that force continuous decision variables to take the value 0, or to belong to a convex set. We derive from first principles the perspective reformulation, and we discuss a variety of practical MINLPs whose relaxation can be strengthened via the perspective reformulation. The survey concludes with comments and computations comparing various algorithmic techniques for solving perspective reformulations.

Improving the Approximated Projected Perspective Reformulation by dual information
We propose an improvement of the Approximated Projected Perspective Reformulation (APR) for dealing with constraints linking the binary variables. The new approach solves the Perspective Reformulation (PR) once, and then use the corresponding dual information to reformulate the problem prior to applying APR, thereby combining the root bound quality of the PR with the reduced relaxation computin...

متن کاملInvestigating the Possibilities of Reading Literary Texts in Light of a Sociolinguistic Perspective: Applications on the Case of Alice Walker’s Selected Short Stories
The present research tries to show how race, class, and gender and intersectionality in general, have their decisive impact on the black- American women; and how Alice Walker as a womanist, in her selected short stories, tries to show that black women in the U.S. suffer two-fold acts of oppression and discrimination, i.e. male violence affects all women in social life, irrespective of age or so...
