27 用linprog、fmincon求 解线性规划问题（matlab程序）_linprog' 需要 optimization toolbox。

1.简述

      

① linprog函数：
 求解线性规划问题，求目标函数的最小值，

[x,y]= linprog(c,A,b,Aeq,beq,lb,ub)

求最大值时，c加上负号：-c

② intlinprog函数：
求解混合整数线性规划问题，

[x,y]= intlinprog(c,intcon,A,b,Aeq,beq,lb,ub)

与linprog相比，多了参数intcon,代表了整数决策变量所在的位置

优化问题中最常见的，就是线性/整数规划问题。即使赛题中有非线性目标/约束，第一想法也应是将其转化为线性。

直白点说，只要决定参加数模比赛，学会建立并求解线性/整数规划问题是非常必要的。

本期主要阐述用Matlab软件求解此类问题的一般步骤，后几期会逐步增加用Mathematica、AMPL、CPLEX、Gurobi、Python等软件求解的教程。

或许你已经听说或掌握了linprog等函数，实际上，它只是诸多求解方法中的一种，且有一定的局限性。

我的每期文章力求"阅完可上手"并"知其所以然"。因此，在讲解如何应用linprog等函数语法前，有必要先了解：

• 什么赛题适用线性/整数规划？
• 如何把非线性形式线性化？
• 如何查看某函数的语法？
• 有哪几种求解方法？

把握好这四个问题，有时候比仅仅会用linprog等函数求解更重要。

一、什么赛题适用线性/整数规划

当题目中提到“怎样分配”、“XX最大/最合理”、“XX尽量多/少”等词汇时。具体有：

1. 生产安排

目标：总利润最大；约束：原材料、设备限制；

2. 销售运输

目标：运费等成本最低；约束：从某产地(产量有限制)运往某销地的运费不同；

3. 投资收益等

目标：总收益最大；约束：不同资产配置下收益率/风险不同，总资金有限；

对于整数规划，除了通常要求变量为整数外，典型的还有指派/背包等问题(决策变量有0-1变量)。

二、如何把非线性形式线性化

在比赛时，遇到非线性形式是家常便饭。此时若能够线性化该问题，绝对是你数模论文的加分项。

我在之前写的线性化文章中提到：如下非线性形式，均可实现线性化：

总的来说，具有 分段函数形式、 绝对值函数形式、 最小/大值函数形式、 逻辑或形式、 含有0-1变量的乘积形式、 混合整数形式以及 分式目标函数，均可实现 线性化。

而实现线性化的主要手段主要就两点，一是引入0-1变量，二是引入很大的整数M。具体细节请参见之前写的线性化文章。

三、如何查看函数所有功能

授之以鱼，不如授之以渔。

学习linprog等函数最好的方法，无疑是看Matlab官方帮助文档。本文仅是抛砖引玉地举例说明几个函数的基础用法，更多细节参见帮助文档。步骤是：

• 调用linprog等函数前需要事先安装“OptimizationToolbox”工具箱；
• 在Matlab命令窗口输入“doc linprog”，便可查看语法，里面有丰富的例子；
• 也可直接查看官方给的PDF帮助文档，后台回复“线性规划”可获取。

function [x,fval,exitflag,output,lambda]=linprog(f,A,B,Aeq,Beq,lb,ub,x0,options)
%LINPROG Linear programming.
%   X = LINPROG(f,A,b) attempts to solve the linear programming problem:
%
%            min f'*x    subject to:   A*x <= b
%             x
%
%   X = LINPROG(f,A,b,Aeq,beq) solves the problem above while additionally
%   satisfying the equality constraints Aeq*x = beq. (Set A=[] and B=[] if
%   no inequalities exist.)
%
%   X = LINPROG(f,A,b,Aeq,beq,LB,UB) defines a set of lower and upper
%   bounds on the design variables, X, so that the solution is in
%   the range LB <= X <= UB. Use empty matrices for LB and UB
%   if no bounds exist. Set LB(i) = -Inf if X(i) is unbounded below;
%   set UB(i) = Inf if X(i) is unbounded above.
%
%   X = LINPROG(f,A,b,Aeq,beq,LB,UB,X0) sets the starting point to X0. This
%   option is only available with the active-set algorithm. The default
%   interior point algorithm will ignore any non-empty starting point.
%
%   X = LINPROG(PROBLEM) finds the minimum for PROBLEM. PROBLEM is a
%   structure with the vector 'f' in PROBLEM.f, the linear inequality
%   constraints in PROBLEM.Aineq and PROBLEM.bineq, the linear equality
%   constraints in PROBLEM.Aeq and PROBLEM.beq, the lower bounds in
%   PROBLEM.lb, the upper bounds in  PROBLEM.ub, the start point
%   in PROBLEM.x0, the options structure in PROBLEM.options, and solver
%   name 'linprog' in PROBLEM.solver. Use this syntax to solve at the
%   command line a problem exported from OPTIMTOOL.
%
%   [X,FVAL] = LINPROG(f,A,b) returns the value of the objective function
%   at X: FVAL = f'*X.
%
%   [X,FVAL,EXITFLAG] = LINPROG(f,A,b) returns an EXITFLAG that describes
%   the exit condition. Possible values of EXITFLAG and the corresponding
%   exit conditions are
%
%     3  LINPROG converged to a solution X with poor constraint feasibility.
%     1  LINPROG converged to a solution X.
%     0  Maximum number of iterations reached.
%    -2  No feasible point found.
%    -3  Problem is unbounded.
%    -4  NaN value encountered during execution of algorithm.
%    -5  Both primal and dual problems are infeasible.
%    -7  Magnitude of search direction became too small; no further
%         progress can be made. The problem is ill-posed or badly
%         conditioned.
%    -9  LINPROG lost feasibility probably due to ill-conditioned matrix.
%
%   [X,FVAL,EXITFLAG,OUTPUT] = LINPROG(f,A,b) returns a structure OUTPUT
%   with the number of iterations taken in OUTPUT.iterations, maximum of
%   constraint violations in OUTPUT.constrviolation, the type of
%   algorithm used in OUTPUT.algorithm, the number of conjugate gradient
%   iterations in OUTPUT.cgiterations (= 0, included for backward
%   compatibility), and the exit message in OUTPUT.message.
%
%   [X,FVAL,EXITFLAG,OUTPUT,LAMBDA] = LINPROG(f,A,b) returns the set of
%   Lagrangian multipliers LAMBDA, at the solution: LAMBDA.ineqlin for the
%   linear inequalities A, LAMBDA.eqlin for the linear equalities Aeq,
%   LAMBDA.lower for LB, and LAMBDA.upper for UB.
%
%   NOTE: the interior-point (the default) algorithm of LINPROG uses a
%         primal-dual method. Both the primal problem and the dual problem
%         must be feasible for convergence. Infeasibility messages of
%         either the primal or dual, or both, are given as appropriate. The
%         primal problem in standard form is
%              min f'*x such that A*x = b, x >= 0.
%         The dual problem is
%              max b'*y such that A'*y + s = f, s >= 0.
