Path-Following Methods for Linear Programming

Gonzaga, Clovis C.·1992·SIAM Review

Abstract

In this paper a unified treatment of algorithms is described for linear programming methods based on the central path. This path is a curve along which the cost decreases, and that stays always far from the boundary of the feasible set. Several parameterizations of this curve are described in primal and primal-dual problems, and it is shown how different algorithms are obtained by following the curve using different parameterizations. Polynomial algorithms are obtained by following the curve approximately, and this concept becomes precise by using explicit rules for measuring the proximity of a point in relation to the central path.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
