Generating Optimal Robust Continuous Piecewise Linear Regression with Outliers Through Combinatorial Benders Decomposition
Using piecewise linear (PWL) functions to model discrete data has applications for example in healthcare, engineering and pattern recognition. Recently, mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) approaches have been used to optimally fit continuous PWL functions. We extend these formulations to allow for outliers. The resulting MILP models rely on binary variables and big-M constructs to model … Read more
