Branch algorithm

Again, in practical applications it is important to combine the raw branching algorithm defined above with importance sampling. Mathematically, this works in precisely the same way as in Section III in that one reformulates the same algorithm in terms of the similarity transform 6 with Mg = uT chosen to be an accurate, approximate dominant eigenstate [see Eq. [Pg.96]

The LHS part of the branching algorithm is also slightly modified. The probability Prs of Seg-0 being started on a scission point at Seg-2 again follows from Eq. (172), but it is constant in a CSTR. The residence time 02, now longer than 0o, is sampled from a conditional probability distribution similar to Eq. (148) ... [Pg.502]

Finally, having set up the learning problem, we need to employ a learning method that will guarantee preservation of the correctness of the branch-and-bound algorithm and make useful additions to the control information we have about the problem (Section V). [Pg.273]

The flowshop problem has been widely studied in the fields of both operations research (Lagweg et al., 1978 Baker, 1975) and chemical engineering (Rajagopalan and Karimi, 1989 Wiede and Reklaitis, 1987). Since the purpose of this chapter is to illustrate a novel technique to synthesize new control knowledge for branch-and-bound algorithms, we... [Pg.273]

To solve the problems of representation and control, we will employ the framework of the branch-and-bound algorithm, which has been used to solve many types of combinatorial optimization problems, in chemical engineering, other domains of engineering, and a broad range of management problems. Specifically, we will use the framework proposed by Ibaraki (1978), which is characterized by the following features ... [Pg.275]

The next section will highlight these features of the branch-and-bound framework, within the context of the flowshop scheduling problem. Then we will give an abstract description of the algorithm, followed by the... [Pg.275]

The large size of the solution space for combinatorial optimization problems forces us to represent it implicitly. The branch-and-bound algorithm encodes the entire solution space in a root node, which is successively expanded into branching nodes. Each of these nodes represents a subset of the original solution space specialized to contain some particular element of the problem structure. [Pg.278]

Having formally defined the branching structure, we must now make explicit the mechanisms by which we can eliminate subsets of the solution space from further consideration. Ibaraki (1978) has stated three major mechanisms for controlling the evolution of the branch-and-bound search algorithms, by eliminating potential solution through... [Pg.280]
