How to use a decision variable from optimization problem into an if else statement?

25 ビュー (過去 30 日間)
Here Tins is a decision variable of size=(24,1) in my optimization problem. The value of Tins(min_des) =20 while value of Tins(max_des) = 23. When I input the if else statement using Tins variable for value comparison, then the following error is shown by matlab:-
Please suggest the corrective measure. Thanks in advance

Is the information provided regarding the problem not sufficient?

It's way too much. An optimization problem has the following form
min f(x)
subject to g(x)<=0, h(x)=0
I'm looking for you to tell me, in your case, what x,f,g,and h are.

The if-constraints (logical constraints, implication constraints) can be modeled with linear constraints and binary variables.
To see how to do this, suppose you have a binary variable y that should be 1 when x > 0. The constraint x - M*y <= 0, where M is an upper bound on x, will enforce this. When x > 0, y must be 1; the only other possible value for y is 0 and if y were 0, the constraint reduces to x <= 0, a contradiction.
To formulate constraint (6), make two constraints
  • (Tmin - Tins) - M1*(1-BCac) <= 0 where M1 is an upper bound on (Tmin - Tins)
  • (Tins - Tmax) - M2*BCac <= 0 where M2 is an upper bound on (Tins - Tmax)
The resulting constraints are called big-M constraints or indicator constraints. The y variable is called an indicator variable.

In the code for my constraint (6), I have another doubt if for a value of Tins=27, although second constraint is being satisfied, but for the first constraint, for Tins=27,
Both BCac=0 or 1 satisfy the constraint. I think due to this reason my intlinprog solver is not giving a feasible solution.
Any help in this regard would be appreciated.

@Paramvir Singh Hi Paramvir, Is your problem solved? Can you share your Matlab code with me if possible? Or if you have any Github or so...
Thanks!
Amir
