A NEW CONCAVE REFORMULATION AND ITS APPLICATION IN SOLVING DC PROGRAMMING GLOBALLY UNDER UNCERTAIN ENVIRONMENT

摘要

In this paper, a new concave reformulation is proposed on a convex hull of some given points. Based on its properties, we attempt to solve DC Programming problems globally under uncertain environment by using Robust optimization method and CVaR method. A global optimization algorithm is developed for the Robust counterpart and CVaR model with two kinds of special convex hulls: simplex set and box set. The global solution is obtained by solving a sequence of convex relaxation programming on the original constraint sets or divided subsets with branch and bound method. Finally, numerical experiments are given for DC programs under uncertain environment with two kinds of constraints: simplex and box sets. Simulation results show the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed global optimization algorithm.
