Algorithms and concepts for robust optimization
In this work we consider uncertain optimization problems where no probability distribution is known. We introduce the approaches RecFeas and RecOpt to such a robust optimization problem, using a location theoretic point of view, and discuss both theoretical and algorithmic aspects. We then consider …
