description | A new linearizing method is presented for globally solving sum
of linear ratios problem with coefficients. By using the linearizing method, linear relaxation
programming (LRP) of the sum of linear ratios problem with coefficients is established,
which can provide the reliable lower bound of the optimal value of the initial problem. Thus,
a branch and bound algorithm for solving the sum of linear ratios problem with coefficients
is put forward. By successively partitioning the linear relaxation of the feasible region and
solving a series of the LRP, the proposed algorithm is convergent to the global optimal
solution of the initial problem. Compared with the known methods, numerical experimental
results show that the proposed method has the higher computational efficiency in finding the
global optimum of the sum of linear ratios problem with coefficients. |
