Simplex2P

class Simplex2P extends MinimizerLP

The Simplex2P class solves Linear Programming (LP) problems using a tableau based Simplex Algorithm. Given a constraint matrix 'a', limit/RHS vector 'b' and cost vector 'c', find values for the solution/decision vector 'x' that minimize the objective function 'f(x)', while satisfying all of the constraints, i.e.,

minimize f(x) = c x subject to a x <= b, x >= 0

In case of 'a_i x >= b_i', use -b_i as an indicator of a ">=" constraint. The program will flip such negative b_i back to positive as well as use a surplus and artificial variable instead of the usual slack variable, i.e., a_i x <= b_i => a_i x + s_i = b_i // use slack variable s_i with coefficient 1 a_i x >= b_i => a_i x + s_i = b_i // use surplus variable s_i with coefficient -1 For each '>=' constraint, an artificial variable is introduced and put into the initial basis. These artificial variables must be removed from the basis during Phase I of the Two-Phase Simplex Algorithm. After this, or if there are no artificial variables, Phase II is used to find an optimal value for 'x' and the optimum value for 'f'.

Creates an 'MM-by-nn' simplex tableau with -- [0..M-1, 0..N-1] = a (constraint matrix) -- [0..M-1, N..M+N-1] = s (slack/surplus variable matrix) -- [0..M-1, M+N..nn-2] = r (artificial variable matrix) -- [0..M-1, nn-1] = b (limit/RHS vector) -- [M, 0..nn-2] = c (cost vector)
