Abstract:This paper proposes a new separable model for the sensor locational decision problem covering a line (SLDPCL). By decomposing a multivariate function into several univariate functions, a separable outer approximation methodology that can be used to improve the outer approximation of classical convex programming technique is presented. A novel outer approximation method (OAM) for this proposed separable model is proposed. The algorithm alternates between solving a mixed integer linear program and a convex nonli… Show more
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.
