Surrogate-based prioritization of sub-problems for Benders decomposition in energy planning
Wanhong Yu, Boyung Jürgens, Leonard Göke
Benders decomposition solves optimization problems by separating the first-stage master problem from one or more second-stage sub-problems. While the standard Benders decomposition solves all sub-problems in each iteration, solving only selected sub-problems still guarantees conv…
