Özet
© 2021 Elsevier B.V.In this paper, we consider generating a representative subset of nondominated points at a prespecified precision in multi-objective mixed-integer programs (MOMIPs). The number of nondominated points grows exponentially with problem size and finding all nondominated points is typically hard in MOMIPs. Representing the nondominated set with a small subset of nondominated points is important for a decision maker to get an understanding of the layout of solutions. The shape and density of the nondominated points over the objective space may be critical in obtaining a set of solutions that represent the nondominated set well. We develop an exact algorithm that generates a representative set guaranteeing a prespecified precision. Our experiments on a variety of problems demonstrate that our algorithm outperforms existing approaches in terms of both the cardinality of the representative set and computation times.
