Computational Performance Evaluation of Column Generation and Generate-and-Solve Techniques for the One-Dimensional Cutting Stock Problem

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2022
The Cutting Stock Problem (CSP) is an optimisation problem that roughly consists of cutting large objects in order to produce small items. The computational effort for solving this problem is largely affected by the number of cutting patterns.

Family Column Generation: A Principled Stabilized Column Generation Approach

open access: yesCoRR, 2021
We tackle the problem of accelerating column generation (CG) approaches to set cover formulations in operations research. At each iteration of CG we generate a dual solution that approximately solves the LP over all columns consisting of a subset of columns in the nascent set. We refer to this linear program (LP) as the Family Restricted Master Problem

Advances in interior point methods and column generation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this thesis we study how to efficiently combine the column generation technique (CG) and interior point methods (IPMs) for solving the relaxation of a selection of integer programming problems.

Exploiting sparsity in pricing routines for the capacitated arc routing problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The capacitated arc routing problem (CARP) is a well-known and fundamental vehicle routing problem. A promising exact solution approach to the CARP is to model it as a set covering problem and solve it via branch-cut-and-price.

On Link Scheduling Under Blockage and Interference in 60-GHz Ad Hoc Networks

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2015
In this paper, we tackle the problem of minimum time length link scheduling in 60-GHz ad hoc wireless networks using directional antennas with directional beamforming, under both traffic demand and signal to interference and noise ratio constraints. Both

Robust Optimization for the Two-Dimensional Strip-Packing Problem with Variable-Sized Bins

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
The two-dimensional strip-packing problem (2D-SPP) emerges as a notable variant of the cutting and packing (C&P) problem, aiming to optimize the arrangement of small rectangular items within unique strips with a fixed width and infinite height to ...

Aperture Shape Generation Based on Gradient Descent With Momentum

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Direct aperture optimization (DAO) is an effective method to generate high-quality intensity-modulated radiation therapy treatment plans. In generic DAO, the direction of negative gradient descent is generally used to determine the aperture shape ...

Semi rigid connections and their influence on steel column behaviour. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
A review of the development of the analysis of frames with semi-rigid end restraint is given, including the treatment of frame stability and effective lengths. The available experimental data relating to the moment versus in-plane

The Angular Set Covering Problem

open access: yesIEEE Access
We present an innovative extension of the Set Covering Problem, transitioning from a traditional radial covering to an angular covering structure. The decisions are based on locating the facilities and identifying the directional servers installed in ...
