Some tractable instances of interval data minmax regret problems: bounded distance from triviality (short version)
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper focuses on tractable instances of interval data minmax regret graph problems. More precisely, we provide polynomial and pseudopolynomial algorithms for sets of particular instances of the interval data minmax regret versions of the shortest path, minimum spanning tree and weighted (bipartite) perfect matching problems. These sets are defined using a parameter that measures the distance from well known solvable instances. Tractable cases occur when the parameter is bounded by a constant. Two kinds of parameters are investigated, measuring either the distance from special weight structures or the distance from special graph structures.

متن کاملSome tractable instances of interval data minmax regret problems
In this paper, we provide polynomial and pseudopolynomial algorithms for classes of particular instances of interval data minmax regret graph problems. These classes are defined using a parameter that measures the distance from well known solvable instances. Tractable cases occur when the parameter is bounded by a constant.
متن کاملA 2-approximation algorithm for interval data minmax regret sequencing problems with the total flow time criterion
In this paper we discuss a minmax regret version of the single machine scheduling problem with the total flow time criterion. Uncertain processing times are modeled by closed intervals. We show that if the deterministic problem is polynomially solvable, then its minmax regret version is approximable within 2.
متن کاملRandomized Minmax Regret for Combinatorial Optimization Under Uncertainty
The minmax regret problem for combinatorial optimization under uncertainty can be viewed as a zero-sum game played between an optimizing player and an adversary, where the optimizing player selects a solution and the adversary selects costs with the intention of maximizing the regret of the player. Existing minmax regret models consider only deterministic solutions/strategies, and minmax regret...
متن کاملA tabu search algorithm for the minmax regret minimum spanning tree problem with interval data
This paper deals with the strongly NP-hard minmax regret version of the minimum spanning tree problem with interval costs. The best known exact algorithms solve the problem in reasonable time for rather small graphs. In this paper an algorithm based on the idea of tabu search is constructed. Some properties of the local minima are shown. Exhaustive computational tests for various classes of gra...
