We present an algorithmic approach for solving two-stage stochastic mixed 0-1 problems. The first stage constraints of the Deterministic Equivalent Model have 0-1 variables and continuous variables. The approach uses the Twin Node Family (TNF) concept within the so-called Branch-and-Fix Coordination algorithmic framework to satisfy the nonanticipativity constraints, jointly with a Benders Decomposition scheme to solve a given LP model at each TNF integer set. As a pilot case, the structuring of a portfolio of Mortgage-Backed Securities under uncertainty in the interest rate path on a given time horizon is used. Some computational experience is reported.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
