Der Einfluss von Langzahlarithmetik auf das Gewichtsraumpolyeder in mehrkriterieller Optimierung
(2018)
Die Arbeit befasst sich mit einem gewichtsraumbasierten Algorithmus, der ganzzahlige und lineare Optimierungsprobleme mit mehreren Zielfunktionen
löst und die Menge der unterstützt nicht dominierten Punkte ermittelt. Die dabei erzeugten Gewichtsraumpolyeder sind das entscheidende Mittel, um die gesuchte Lösungsmenge zu bestimmen. Aus softwaretechnischer Sicht sind numerische Ungenauigkeiten potentielle Fehlerquellen, die sich negativ auf das Endergebnis auswirken. Aus diesem Grund untersuchen wir anhand von Zuweisungs- und Rucksackinstanzen mit 3 Zielfunktionen, inwieweit der Gebrauch von Langzahlarithmetik die Gewichtsraumpolyeder und die damit verbundene Menge der unterstützt nicht dominierten Punkte beeinflusst.
System Dynamic models describe physical, technical, economical, or social systems using differential and algebraic equations. In their purest form, these models are intended to describe the evolution of a system from a given initial state. In many applications, it is possible to intervene with the system in order to obtain a desired dynamic or a certain outcome in the end. On the mathematical side, this leads to control problems, where aside from the simulation one has to find optimal intervention functions over time that maximize a specific objective function. Using a dynamical model for the utilization of a natural nonrenewable resource of Behrens as a demonstrator example, we present two main mathematical solution strategies. They are distinguished by the quality certificate on their respective solution: one leads to proven local optimal solution, and the other technique yields proven global optimal solutions. We present implementational and numerical issues, and a comparison of both methods.
We consider a novel partitioning of the set of non-dominated points for general multi-objective integer programs with $k$ objectives. The set of non-dominated points is partitioned into a set of non-dominated points whose efficient solutions are also efficient for some restricted subproblem with one less objective; the second partition comprises the non-dominated points whose efficient solutions are
inefficient for any of the restricted subproblems. We show that the first partition has the nice property that it yields finite rectangular boxes in which the points of the second partition are
located.
PolySCIP
(2016)
PolySCIP is a new solver for multi-criteria integer and multi-criteria linear programs handling an arbitrary number of objectives. It is available as an official part of the non-commercial constraint integer programming framework SCIP. It utilizes a lifted weight space approach to compute the set of supported extreme non-dominated points and unbounded non-dominated rays, respectively. The algorithmic approach can be summarized as follows: At the beginning an arbitrary non-dominated point is computed (or it is determined that there is none) and a weight space polyhedron created. In every next iteration a vertex of the weight space polyhedron is selected whose entries give rise to a single-objective optimization problem via a combination of the original objectives. If the ptimization of this single-objective problem yields a new non-dominated point, the weight space polyhedron is updated. Otherwise another vertex of the weight space polyhedron is investigated. The algorithm finishes when all vertices of the weight space polyhedron have been investigated. The file format of PolySCIP is based on the widely used MPS format and allows a simple generation of multi-criteria models via an algebraic modelling language.
The SCIP Optimization Suite is a software toolbox for generating and solving various classes of mathematical optimization problems. Its major components are the modeling language ZIMPL, the linear programming solver SoPlex, the constraint integer programming framework and mixed-integer linear and nonlinear programming solver SCIP, the UG framework for parallelization of branch-and-bound-based solvers, and the generic branch-cut-and-price solver GCG. It has been used in many applications from both academia and industry and is one of the leading non-commercial solvers.
This paper highlights the new features of version 3.2 of the SCIP Optimization Suite. Version 3.2 was released in July 2015. This release comes with new presolving steps, primal heuristics, and branching rules within SCIP. In addition, version 3.2 includes a reoptimization feature and improved handling of quadratic constraints and special ordered sets. SoPlex can now solve LPs exactly over the rational number and performance improvements have been achieved by exploiting sparsity in more situations. UG has been tested successfully on 80,000 cores. A major new feature of UG is the functionality to parallelize a customized SCIP solver. GCG has been enhanced with a new separator, new primal heuristics, and improved column management. Finally, new and improved extensions of SCIP are presented, namely solvers for multi-criteria optimization, Steiner tree problems, and mixed-integer semidefinite programs.
