Popis
Shrnutí:Benson's outer approximation algorithm and its variants are the most frequently used methods for solving linear multiobjective optimization problems. These algorithms have two intertwined parts: single-objective linear optimization on one hand, and a combinatorial part closely related to vertex enumeration on the other. Their separation provides a deeper insight into Benson's algorithm, and points toward a dual approach. Two skeletal algorithms are defined which focus on the combinatorial part. Using different single-objective optimization problems yields different algorithms, such as a sequential convex hull algorithm, another version of Benson's algorithm with the theoretically best possible iteration count, and the dual algorithm of Ehrgott et al. [A dual variant of Benson's 'outer approximation algorithm' for multiple objective linear programming. J Glob Optim. 2012;52:757-778]. The implemented version is well suited to handle highly degenerate problems where there are many linear dependencies among the constraints. On problems with 10 or more objectives, it shows a significant increase in efficiency compared to Bensolve - due to the reduced number of iterations and the improved combinatorial handling.
