This paper presents a filled function method for finding a global optimizer of integer programming problem. The method contains two phases: the local minimization phase and the filling phase. The goal of the former phase is to identify a local minimizer of the objective function, while the filling phase aims to search for a better initial point for the first phase with the aid of the filled function. A two-parameter filled function is proposed, and its properties are investigated. A corresponding filled function algorithm is established. Numerical experiments on several test problems are performed, and preliminary computational results are reported.. Introduction Consider the following general global nonlinear integer programming: min x X fx, P where f : Z n R,X Z n is a box set and Z n is the set of integer points in R n.the problem P is important since lots of real life applications, such as production planning, supply chains, and finance, are allowed to be formulated into this problem. One of main issues in the global optimization is to avoid being trapped in the basins surrounding local minimizers. Several global optimization solution strategies have been put forward to tacle with the problem P. These techniques are usually divided into two classes: stochastic method and deterministic method see 7. The discrete filled function method is one of the more recently developed global optimization tools for discrete global
2 2 Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society optimization problems. The first filled function was introduced by Ge and Qin in 8 for continuous global optimization. Papers 6, 7, 9 extend this continuous filled function method to solve integer programming problem. Lie the continuous filled function method, the discrete filled function method also contains two phases: local minimization and filling. The local minimization phase uses any ordinary discrete descent method to search for a discrete local minimizer of the problem P, while the filling phase utilizes an auxiliary function called filled function to find a better initial point for the first phase by minimizing the constructed filled function. The definitions of the filled function proposed in the papers 9, 0 are as follows. Definition. see 9. Px, x is called a filled function of fx at a discrete local minimizer x if Px, x meets the following conditions. Px, x has no discrete local minimizers in the set S {x X : fx fx }, except a prefixed point x 0 S that is a minimizer of Px, x. 2 If x is not a discrete global minimizer of fx, then Px, x does have a discrete minimizer in the set S 2 {x fx <fx,x X}. Definition.2 see 0. Px, x is called a filled function of fx at a discrete local minimizer x if Px, x meets the following conditions. Px, x has no discrete local minimizers in the set S \ x 0, where the prefixed point x 0 S is not necessarily a local minimizer of Px, x. 2 If x is not a discrete global minimizer of fx, then Px, x has a discrete minimizer in the set S 2. Although Definitions. and.2 and the corresponding filled functions proposed in the papers 9, 0 have their own advantages, they have some defects in some degree, for example, as the prefixed point x 0 in Definition.2 may be a minimizer of the given filled function, which will result in numerical complexity at the iterations or cause the algorithm to fail. To avoid these defects, in this paper, we give a modification of Definitions. and.2 and propose a new filled function. The rest of this paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, we review some basic concepts of discrete optimization. In Section 3, we propose a discrete filled function and investigate its properties. In Section 4, we state our algorithm and report preliminary numerical results. And, at last, we give our conclusion in Section Basic Knowledge and Some Assumptions Consider the problem P. Throughout this paper, we mae the following assumptions. Assumption 2.. There exists a constant D>0 satisfying D max x,x 2 X,x / x 2 x x 2 <. Assumption 2.2. There exists a constant L>0, such that fx f y L x y 2. holds, for any x, y x X Nx, where Nx is a neighborhood of the point x as defined in Definition 2.4.
3 Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society 3 Most of the existing discrete filled function methods are used for solving a box constrained problem. To an unconstrained global optimization problem UP: min x R nfx, if fx satisfies lim x fx, then there exists a box set which contains all discrete global minimizers of fx. Therefore, UP can be turned into an equivalent formulation in P and solved by any discrete filled function method. For convenience, in the following, we recall some preliminaries which will be used throughout this paper. Definition 2.3 see 0. The set of all feasible directions at x X is defined by D x {d D : x d X}, where D {±e i : i, 2,...,n}, e i is the ith unit vector the n-dimensional vector with the ith component equal to one and all other components equal to zero. Definition 2.4 see 0. For any x Z n, the discrete neighborhood of x is defined by Nx {x, x ± e i, i, 2,...,n}. Definition 2.5 see 0. Apointx X is called a discrete local minimizer of fx over X if fx fx, for all x X Nx. Furthermore, if fx fx, for all x X, then x is called a strict discrete local minimizer of fx over X. If, in addition, fx <fx, for all x X \{x }, then x is called a strict discrete local global minimizer of fx over X. Algorithm 2.6 discrete local minimization method. Start from an initial point x X. 2 If x is a local minimizer of f over X, then stop. Otherwise, let d : arg min d i D x { fx di : fx d i <fx } Let x : x d, and go to Step 2. Let x be a local minimizer of the problem P. The new definition of the filled function of f at x is given as follows. Definition 2.7. Px, x is called a discrete filled function of fx at a discrete local minimizer x if Px, x has the following properties. x is a strict discrete local maximizer of Px, x over X. 2 Px, x has no discrete local minimizers in the region S { x fx fx,x X \ {x } } If x is not a discrete global minimizer of fx, then Px, x does have a discrete minimizer in the region S 2 { x fx <fx, x X }. 2.4
4 4 Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society 3. Properties of the Proposed Discrete Filled Function Tx, x,q,r Let x denote the current discrete local minimizer of P. Based on Definition 2.7, a novel filled function is proposed as follows: T x, x,q,r q x x ϕ { q max fx fx r, 0 }, 3. where π ϕ q t 2 arctan q if t / 0, t 0 if t 0, 3.2 where r>0andq>0 are two parameters and r satisfies 0 <r<min fx / fx 2,x,x 2 X fx fx 2. The following theorems ensure that Tx, x,q,r is a filled function under some conditions. Theorem 3.. If 0 <q<minr, π/4, then x is a strict local maximizer of Tx, x,q,r. Proof. Since x is a local minimizer of P, there exists a neighborhood Nx of x such that fx fx and x x hold,foranyx Nx X. It follows that T x, x,q,r π q T x,x,q,r q 2 arctan q fx fx r π 2 arctan q. r, 3.3 By the condition 0 <q<minr, π/4 and the fact that the inequality arctan a arctan b a b 3.4 holds for any real number a b, we have ΔT x, x,q,r T x,x,q,r q q arctan q r π arctan q 2 q r arctan q fx fx r arctan q q π q 2 q r fx fx r π 4 q q q fx fx q r fx fx r
5 Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society 5 π 4 q q q q q q π < Hence, Tx, x,q,r <Tx,x,q,r, which implies that x is a strict local maximizer of Tx, x,q,r. Lemma 3.2. For every x X, there exists d D such that x d x > x x. For the proof of this lemma, see, for example, 6 or 7. Theorem 3.3. Suppose that 0 <q<min,r,π 2/4 Dr. Iffx fx and x / x, then x is not a local minimizer of Tx, x,q,r. Proof. For any x / x with fx fx,bylemma 3.2, there exists a direction d D with x d x X Nx such that x d x > x x. For this d, we consider the following three cases. Case fx d fx. In this case, by using the given condition and the fact that the inequality arctan a a 3.6 holds for any real number a 0, we have Δ T x d, x,q,r T x, x,q,r q x d x q x x arctan q x x arctan q r π 2 π 2 arctan q π 2 arctan q fx d fx r fx fx r q fx d fx r π x d x x x 2 q x d x q x x arctan q x x arctan q fx fx r arctan x d x x x q x d x q x x q q fx fx arctan r q fx d fx r fx d fx r
6 6 Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society q r π x d x x x 2 q x d x q x x q q x x r q r π x d x x x 2 q x d x q x x 2q q x x r x d x x x q x d x q x x π 2 2q r q x d x x d x x x. 3.7 Since q x d x D and x d x x x, we have Δ x d x x x q x d x q x x π 2 2q D < r Hence, in this case, x is not a local minimizer of Tx, x,q,r. Case 2 fx d <fx and fx d fx r 0. In this case, we have Δ 2 T x d, x,q,r T x, x,q,r T x, x,q,r < 0, 3.9 which means the conclusion is true in this case. Case 3 fx d <fx and fx d fx r>0. In this case, we have T x d, x,q,r π q x d x 2 arctan q fx d fx r π < q x d x 2 arctan q r π < q x x 2 arctan q fx fx T x, x,q,r. r 3.0 Hence, in this case, x is not a local minimizer of Tx, x,q,r. The above discussion implies that x is not a discrete local minimizer of Tx, x,q,r. Theorem 3.4. Assume that x is not a global minimizer of fx, then there exists a minimizer x of Tx, x,q,r in S 2. Proof. Since x is not a global minimizer of fx, there exists x S 2 such that fx <fx r; it follows that Tx,x,q,r0. On the other hand, by the structure of Tx, x,q,r, we have Tx, x,q,r 0 for any x X. This shows x is a minimizer of Tx, x,q,r.
7 Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society 7 4. Filled Function Algorithm and Numerical Experiments Based on the theoretical results in the previous section, the filled function method for P is described now as follows. Algorithm 4. discrete filled function method. Input the lower bound of r, namely, r L e 8. Input an initial point x 0 0 X. Let D {±e i,i, 2,...,n}. 2 Starting from an initial point x 0 0 X, minimize fx and obtain the first local minimizer x 0 of fx.set 0, r, and q. 3 Set x 0i x d i, d i D, i, 2,...,2n, J, 2,...,2n, andj. 4 Set i J j and x x 0i. 5 If fx <fx, then use x as initial point for discrete local minimization method to find another local minimizer x such that fx <fx.set, and go to 3. 6 Let D 0 {d D : x d X}. If there exists d D 0 such that fx d <fx, then use x d, where d arg min d D0 {fx d}, as an initial point for a discrete local minimization method to find another local minimizer x such that fx < fx.set, and go to 3. 7 Let D {d D 0 : x d x > x x }. IfD, then go to 0. 8 If there exists d D such that Tx d, x,q,r Tx, x,q,r, then set q 0.q, J J j,...,j 2n,J,...,J j, j, and go to 4. 9 Let D 2 : {d D : fx d < fx,tx d, x,q,r < Tx, x,q,r}. If D 2 /, then set d arg min d D2 {fx d Tx d, x,q,r}. Otherwise set d arg min d D {Tx d, x,q,r}, x x d,andgoto6. 0 If i<2n, then set i i, and go to 4. Set r 0.r. Ifr r L,goto3. Otherwise, the algorithm is incapable of finding a better minimizer starting from the initial points, {x 0i : i, 2,...,2n}. The algorithm stops, and x is taen as a global minimizer. The motivation and mechanism behind the algorithm are explained below. Asetof2n initial points is chosen in Step 3 to minimize the discrete filled function. Step 5 represents the situation where the current computer-generated initial point for the discrete filled function method satisfies fx <fx. Therefore, we can further minimize the primal objective function fx by any discrete local minimization method starting from x. Step 7 aims at selecting a better successor point. If D 2 is not empty, then we get a feasible direction which reduce both the objective function value and filled function value. Otherwise, we can get a descent feasible direction which reduce only filled function value. In the following, we perform the numerical experiments for five test problems using the above proposed filled function algorithm. All the numerical experiments are programmed in MATLAB The proposed filled function algorithm succeeds in identifying the global minimizers of the test problems. The computational results are summarized in Table, and
