Descripción
Sumario:Two matheuristic decomposition algorithms are introduced. The first one is a Progressive Hedging type so-named Regularized scenario Cluster Progressive Algorithm. The second one is a Frank-Wolfe PH type so-named Regularized scenario Cluster Simplicial Decomposition Progressive Algorithm. An extension of endogenous Type III uncertainty is considered for representing the decision-dependent scenario probability and outlook. Its performance is tested in the time-consistent Expected Conditional Stochastic Dominance risk averse environment. As a result of the modeling, the typical risk neutral multistage mixed 0-1 linear stochastic problem under uncertainty is replaced with an enlarged model that is equivalent to the required mixed 0-1 bilinear model. Based on the special features of the problem, it is unrealistic to seek the optimal solution for large-scale instances. Feasible solutions and lower bounds on the solution value of the original model are provided. In total, 48 strategies are considered, each one consists of a combination of a regularization norm, a calibration type for the PH pseudo-gradient computation, and a set of value intervals of the influential variables on a representative endogenous uncertainty-based piecewise function in the scenarios. Computational results are reported for a large-scale extension of a well-known real-life pilot case for preparedness resource allocation planning aiming to natural disaster relief. The matheuristics outperform the plain use of a state-of-the-art solver.
