Using the FuzzyLP package in R I have demonstrated simple linear optimization of a well defined linear problem using the crispLP function in a previous post. In that example basic simplex algorithm was applied to solve the problem. In this…
In previous posts I have demonstrated how to solve linear programs in R using lpSolve – or in Python using SciPy.optimize. In this coding example I want to show how to conduct simple linear optimization using the FuzzyLP package. FuzzyLP…
In previous posts I showed how to conduct optimization in R (linear optimization with lpSolve, quadratic optimization with quadprog and non-linear gradient descent optimization with nloptr). In this post I show how to model and solve the linear optimization problem…
The assignment problem is a classic problem in linear program. If, for example, you have n jobs that need to be manufactured during the upcoming shift (in a manufacturing plant) and you have m machines to produce these tasks, then you want…
The transportation problem is one of the classical problems teached in linear programming classes. The problem, put simply, states that a given set of customers with a specified demand must be satisfied by another set of supplier with certain capacities…
