Adaptive Subproblem Selection in Benders Decomposition for Survivable Network Design Problems
Scenario-based optimization problems can be solved via Benders decomposition, which separates first-stage (master problem) decisions from second-stage (subproblem) recourse actions and iteratively refines the master problem with Benders cuts. In conventional Benders decomposition, all subproblems are solved at each iteration. For problems with many scenarios, solving only a selected subset can reduce computation. We quantify … Read more
