Hi all,
Can you please advise on the following problem ?
Suppose I have an 1-dimensional array of binary variables, in which
patterns like these are ok:
A = 1110000;
A = 0000011;
A = 0000000;
A = 1111111;
But this pattern is NOT allowed:
A = 1110111;
So, a zero should not occur if it is surrounded by ones.
I tried to model this, and until now I'm using forced constraints based on
this pseudo-algorithm (assuming A indexing is one-based for simplicity):
for i := 1 to count(A) do
for j := i+2 to count(A) do
for k := i+1 to j-1 do
A[k] >= A[i] * A[j];
next
next
next
So, if A[k] is zero, then A[i] and A[j] can't be one!
This is working in other commercial solver, but I would like to make this
work on glpk.
Nevertheless, as I compile it fails saying that the constraint is not
linear.
Even the commercial solver states the compiling model as INLP (non-linear),
but it solves it in seconds.
Is there any way this could work on glpk ?
Thank you.
