Geometric programming problems are a set of special problems normally solved with TOMLAB /GP. The optimum is commonly non-differentiable. Problems are modeled on the primal form, but the dual is entered and solved.
The primal geometric programming problem is defined as:
where
Given exponents for the th variable in the th product term, and , are arbitrary real constants and term coefficients are positive.
Example problem:
The following file defines and solves the problem in TOMLAB.
File: tomlab/quickguide/gpQG.m
Open the file for viewing, and execute gpQG in Matlab.
% gpQG is a small example problem for defining and solving
% geometric programming problems using the TOMLAB format.
nterm = [6;3];
coef = [.5e1;.5e5;.2e2;.72e5;.1e2;.144e6;.4e1;.32e2;.12e3];
A = sparse([ 1 -1 0 0 0 0 -1 0 0;...
0 0 1 -1 0 0 0 -1 0;...
0 0 0 0 1 -1 0 0 -1])';
Name = 'GP Example'; % File gpQG.m
% Assign routine for defining a GP problem.
Prob = gpAssign(nterm, coef, A, Name);
% Calling driver routine tomRun to run the solver.
% The 1 sets the print level after optimization.
Result = tomRun('GP', Prob, 1);
