/** Primal algorithm
Method
It tries to be a single phase approach with a weight of 1.0 being
given to getting optimal and a weight of infeasibilityCost_ being
given to getting primal feasible. In this version I have tried to
be clever in a stupid way. The idea of fake bounds in dual
seems to work so the primal analogue would be that of getting
bounds on reduced costs (by a presolve approach) and using
these for being above or below feasible region. I decided to waste
memory and keep these explicitly. This allows for non-linear
costs! I have not tested non-linear costs but will be glad
to do something if a reasonable example is provided.
The code is designed to take advantage of sparsity so arrays are
seldom zeroed out from scratch or gone over in their entirety.
The only exception is a full scan to find incoming variable for
Dantzig row choice. For steepest edge we keep an updated list
of dual infeasibilities (actually squares).
On easy problems we don't need full scan - just
pick first reasonable. This method has not been coded.
One problem is how to tackle degeneracy and accuracy. At present
I am using the modification of costs which I put in OSL and which was
extended by Gill et al. I am still not sure whether we will also
need explicit perturbation.
The flow of primal is three while loops as follows:
while (not finished) {
while (not clean solution) {
Factorize and/or clean up solution by changing bounds so
primal feasible. If looks finished check fake primal bounds.
Repeat until status is iterating (-1) or finished (0,1,2)
}
while (status==-1) {
Iterate until no pivot in or out or time to re-factorize.
Flow is:
choose pivot column (incoming variable). if none then
we are primal feasible so looks as if done but we need to
break and check bounds etc.
Get pivot column in tableau
Choose outgoing row. If we don't find one then we look
primal unbounded so break and check bounds etc. (Also the
pivot tolerance is larger after any iterations so that may be
reason)
If we do find outgoing row, we may have to adjust costs to
keep going forwards (anti-degeneracy). Check pivot will be stable
and if unstable throw away iteration and break to re-factorize.
If minor error re-factorize after iteration.
Update everything (this may involve changing bounds on
variables to stay primal feasible.
}
}
TODO's (or maybe not)
At present we never check we are going forwards. I overdid that in
OSL so will try and make a last resort.
Needs partial scan pivot in option.
May need other anti-degeneracy measures, especially if we try and use
loose tolerances as a way to solve in fewer iterations.
I like idea of dynamic scaling. This gives opportunity to decouple
different implications of scaling for accuracy, iteration count and
feasibility tolerance.
