  2. Help:Advanced table formatting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Advanced_table_formatting

    Solution: divide one of the tall cells so that the row gets one rowspan=1 cell (and don't mind the eventual loss of text-centering). Then kill the border between them. Don't forget to fill the cell with nothing ({}). This being the only solution that correctly preserves the cell height, matching that of the reference seven row table.

    Like other parameters, colors can also be specified for a whole row or the whole table; parameters for a row override the value for the table, and those for a cell override those for a row. There is no easy way to specify a color for a whole column: each cell in the column must be individually specified. Tools can make it easier. [which?]

    Next, the pivot row must be selected so that all the other basic variables remain positive. A calculation shows that this occurs when the resulting value of the entering variable is at a minimum. In other words, if the pivot column is c, then the pivot row r is chosen so that / is the minimum over all r so that a rc > 0

  5. Optimal facility location - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimal_facility_location

    The goal is to pick a subset F of facilities to open, to minimize the sum of distances from each demand point to its nearest facility, plus the sum of opening costs of the facilities. The facility location problem on general graphs is NP-hard to solve optimally, by reduction from (for example) the set cover problem. A number of approximation ...

  6. Cutting-plane method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting-plane_method

    Cutting planes were proposed by Ralph Gomory in the 1950s as a method for solving integer programming and mixed-integer programming problems. However, most experts, including Gomory himself, considered them to be impractical due to numerical instability, as well as ineffective because many rounds of cuts were needed to make progress towards the solution.

  7. Newton's method in optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method_in...

    The geometric interpretation of Newton's method is that at each iteration, it amounts to the fitting of a parabola to the graph of () at the trial value , having the same slope and curvature as the graph at that point, and then proceeding to the maximum or minimum of that parabola (in higher dimensions, this may also be a saddle point), see below.

  8. Dynamic programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_programming

    Consider the problem of assigning values, either zero or one, to the positions of an n × n matrix, with n even, so that each row and each column contains exactly n / 2 zeros and n / 2 ones. We ask how many different assignments there are for a given . For example, when n = 4, five possible solutions are
