Combining AI and OR in Heuristics and Optimization
Abstract
Mixed logical/linear programming (MLLP) was developed as an extension of mixed integer/linear programming. What appears to be the first practical method of sensitivity analysis for mixed integer/linear programming was developed and applied to a Proctor and Gamble supply chain problem. Consistency-achieving methods of constraint programming were linked with constraint generation methods in operations research. Continuous relaxations were identified for mixed discrete/continuous optimization problems that can accelerate their solution within a logic-based approach. A research monograph, Logic-Eased Methods for Optimization, was written.
