Linear programming solves problems of the following form: .. math:: \min_x \ & c^T x \\ \mbox{such that} \ & A_{ub} x \leq b_{ub},\\ & A_{eq} x = b_{eq},\\ & l \leq x \leq u , where :math:`x` is a vector of decision variables; :math:`c`, :math:`b_{ub}`, :math:`b_{eq}`, :math:`l`, and :math:`u` are vectors; and :math:`A_{ub}` and :math:`A_{eq}` are matrices. Alternatively, that's: minimize:: c @ x such that:: A_ub @ x <= b_ub A_eq @ x == b_eq lb <= x <= ub Note that by default ``lb = 0`` and ``ub = None`` unless specified with ``bounds``. Parameters ---------- c : 1-D array The coefficients of the linear objective function to be minimized. A_ub : 2-D array, optional The inequality constraint matrix. Each row of ``A_ub`` specifies the coefficients of a linear inequality constraint on ``x``. b_ub : 1-D array, optional The inequality constraint vector. Each element represents an upper bound on the corresponding value of ``A_ub @ x``. A_eq : 2-D array, optional The equality constraint matrix. Each row of ``A_eq`` specifies the coefficients of a linear equality constraint on ``x``. b_eq : 1-D array, optional The equality constraint vector. Each element of ``A_eq @ x`` must equal the corresponding element of ``b_eq``. bounds : sequence, optional A sequence of ``(min, max)`` pairs for each element in ``x``, defining the minimum and maximum values of that decision variable. Use ``None`` to indicate that there is no bound. By default, bounds are ``(0, None)`` (all decision variables are non-negative). If a single tuple ``(min, max)`` is provided, then ``min`` and ``max`` will serve as bounds for all decision variables. method : str This is the method-specific documentation for 'highs', which chooses automatically between :ref:`'highs-ds' ` and :ref:`'highs-ipm' `. :ref:`'interior-point' ` (default), :ref:`'revised simplex' `, and :ref:`'simplex' ` (legacy) are also available.

Notes ----- This method implements the algorithm outlined in [4]_ with ideas from [8]_ and a structure inspired by the simpler methods of [6]_. The primal-dual path following method begins with initial 'guesses' of the primal and dual variables of the standard form problem and iteratively attempts to solve the (nonlinear) Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions for the problem with a gradually reduced logarithmic barrier term added to the objective. This particular implementation uses a homogeneous self-dual formulation, which provides certificates of infeasibility or unboundedness where applicable. The default initial point for the primal and dual variables is that defined in [4]_ Section 4.4 Equation 8.22. Optionally (by setting initial point option ``ip=True``), an alternate (potentially improved) starting point can be calculated according to the additional recommendations of [4]_ Section 4.4. A search direction is calculated using the predictor-corrector method (single correction) proposed by Mehrota and detailed in [4]_ Section 4.1. (A potential improvement would be to implement the method of multiple corrections described in [4]_ Section 4.2.) In practice, this is accomplished by solving the normal equations, [4]_ Section 5.1 Equations 8.31 and 8.32, derived from the Newton equations [4]_ Section 5 Equations 8.25 (compare to [4]_ Section 4 Equations 8.6-8.8). The advantage of solving the normal equations rather than 8.25 directly is that the matrices involved are symmetric positive definite, so Cholesky decomposition can be used rather than the more expensive LU factorization. With default options, the solver used to perform the factorization depends on third-party software availability and the conditioning of the problem. For dense problems, solvers are tried in the following order: 1. ``scipy.linalg.cho_factor`` 2. ``scipy.linalg.solve`` with option ``sym_pos=True`` 3. ``scipy.linalg.solve`` with option ``sym_pos=False`` 4. ``scipy.linalg.lstsq`` For sparse problems: 1. ``sksparse.cholmod.cholesky`` (if scikit-sparse and SuiteSparse are installed) 2. ``scipy.sparse.linalg.factorized`` (if scikit-umfpack and SuiteSparse are installed) 3. ``scipy.sparse.linalg.splu`` (which uses SuperLU distributed with SciPy) 4. ``scipy.sparse.linalg.lsqr`` If the solver fails for any reason, successively more robust (but slower) solvers are attempted in the order indicated. Attempting, failing, and re-starting factorization can be time consuming, so if the problem is numerically challenging, options can be set to bypass solvers that are failing. Setting ``cholesky=False`` skips to solver 2, ``sym_pos=False`` skips to solver 3, and ``lstsq=True`` skips to solver 4 for both sparse and dense problems. Potential improvements for combatting issues associated with dense columns in otherwise sparse problems are outlined in [4]_ Section 5.3 and [10]_ Section 4.1-4.2; the latter also discusses the alleviation of accuracy issues associated with the substitution approach to free variables. After calculating the search direction, the maximum possible step size that does not activate the non-negativity constraints is calculated, and the smaller of this step size and unity is applied (as in [4]_ Section 4.1.) [4]_ Section 4.3 suggests improvements for choosing the step size. The new point is tested according to the termination conditions of [4]_ Section 4.5. The same tolerance, which can be set using the ``tol`` option, is used for all checks. (A potential improvement would be to expose the different tolerances to be set independently.) If optimality, unboundedness, or infeasibility is detected, the solve procedure terminates; otherwise it repeats. Whereas the top level ``linprog`` module expects a problem of form: Minimize:: c @ x Subject to:: A_ub @ x <= b_ub A_eq @ x == b_eq lb <= x <= ub where ``lb = 0`` and ``ub = None`` unless set in ``bounds``. The problem is automatically converted to the form: Minimize:: c @ x Subject to:: A @ x == b x >= 0 for solution. That is, the original problem contains equality, upper-bound and variable constraints whereas the method specific solver requires equality constraints and variable non-negativity. ``linprog`` converts the original problem to standard form by converting the simple bounds to upper bound constraints, introducing non-negative slack variables for inequality constraints, and expressing unbounded variables as the difference between two non-negative variables. The problem is converted back to the original form before results are reported. References ---------- .. [4] Andersen, Erling D., and Knud D. Andersen.

Linear programming solves problems of the following form: .. math:: \min_x \ & c^T x \\ \mbox{such that} \ & A_{ub} x \leq b_{ub},\\ & A_{eq} x = b_{eq},\\ & l \leq x \leq u , where :math:`x` is a vector of decision variables; :math:`c`, :math:`b_{ub}`, :math:`b_{eq}`, :math:`l`, and :math:`u` are vectors; and :math:`A_{ub}` and :math:`A_{eq}` are matrices. Alternatively, that's: minimize:: c @ x such that:: A_ub @ x <= b_ub A_eq @ x == b_eq lb <= x <= ub Note that by default ``lb = 0`` and ``ub = None`` unless specified with ``bounds``. Parameters ---------- c : 1-D array The coefficients of the linear objective function to be minimized. A_ub : 2-D array, optional The inequality constraint matrix. Each row of ``A_ub`` specifies the coefficients of a linear inequality constraint on ``x``. b_ub : 1-D array, optional The inequality constraint vector. Each element represents an upper bound on the corresponding value of ``A_ub @ x``. A_eq : 2-D array, optional The equality constraint matrix. Each row of ``A_eq`` specifies the coefficients of a linear equality constraint on ``x``. b_eq : 1-D array, optional The equality constraint vector. Each element of ``A_eq @ x`` must equal the corresponding element of ``b_eq``. bounds : sequence, optional A sequence of ``(min, max)`` pairs for each element in ``x``, defining the minimum and maximum values of that decision variable. Use ``None`` to indicate that there is no bound. By default, bounds are ``(0, None)`` (all decision variables are non-negative). If a single tuple ``(min, max)`` is provided, then ``min`` and ``max`` will serve as bounds for all decision variables. method : str This is the method-specific documentation for 'revised simplex'. :ref:`'highs' `, :ref:`'highs-ds' `, :ref:`'highs-ipm' `, :ref:`'interior-point' ` (default), and :ref:`'simplex' ` (legacy) are also available. callback : callable, optional Callback function to be executed once per iteration. x0 : 1-D array, optional Guess values of the decision variables, which will be refined by the optimization algorithm. This argument is currently used only by the 'revised simplex' method, and can only be used if `x0` represents a basic feasible solution. Options ------- maxiter : int (default: 5000) The maximum number of iterations to perform in either phase. disp : bool (default: False) Set to ``True`` if indicators of optimization status are to be printed to the console each iteration. presolve : bool (default: True) Presolve attempts to identify trivial infeasibilities, identify trivial unboundedness, and simplify the problem before sending it to the main solver. It is generally recommended to keep the default setting ``True``; set to ``False`` if presolve is to be disabled. tol : float (default: 1e-12) The tolerance which determines when a solution is "close enough" to zero in Phase 1 to be considered a basic feasible solution or close enough to positive to serve as an optimal solution. autoscale : bool (default: False) Set to ``True`` to automatically perform equilibration. Consider using this option if the numerical values in the constraints are separated by several orders of magnitude. rr : bool (default: True) Set to ``False`` to disable automatic redundancy removal. maxupdate : int (default: 10) The maximum number of updates performed on the LU factorization. After this many updates is reached, the basis matrix is factorized from scratch. mast : bool (default: False) Minimize Amortized Solve Time. If enabled, the average time to solve a linear system using the basis factorization is measured. Typically, the average solve time will decrease with each successive solve after initial factorization, as factorization takes much more time than the solve operation (and updates). Eventually, however, the updated factorization becomes sufficiently complex that the average solve time begins to increase. When this is detected, the basis is refactorized from scratch. Enable this option to maximize speed at the risk of nondeterministic behavior. Ignored if ``maxupdate`` is 0. pivot : "mrc" or "bland" (default: "mrc") Pivot rule: Minimum Reduced Cost ("mrc") or Bland's rule ("bland"). Choose Bland's rule if iteration limit is reached and cycling is suspected. unknown_options : dict Optional arguments not used by this particular solver. If `unknown_options` is non-empty a warning is issued listing all unused options. Returns ------- res : OptimizeResult A :class:`scipy.optimize.OptimizeResult` consisting of the fields: x : 1-D array The values of the decision variables that minimizes the objective function while satisfying the constraints. fun : float The optimal value of the objective function ``c @ x``. slack : 1-D array The (nominally positive) values of the slack variables, ``b_ub - A_ub @ x``. con : 1-D array The (nominally zero) residuals of the equality constraints, ``b_eq - A_eq @ x``. success : bool ``True`` when the algorithm succeeds in finding an optimal solution. status : int An integer representing the exit status of the algorithm. ``0`` : Optimization terminated successfully. ``1`` : Iteration limit reached. ``2`` : Problem appears to be infeasible. ``3`` : Problem appears to be unbounded. ``4`` : Numerical difficulties encountered. ``5`` : Problem has no constraints; turn presolve on. ``6`` : Invalid guess provided. message : str A string descriptor of the exit status of the algorithm. nit : int The total number of iterations performed in all phases. Notes ----- Method *revised simplex* uses the revised simplex method as described in [9]_, except that a factorization [11]_ of the basis matrix, rather than its inverse, is efficiently maintained and used to solve the linear systems at each iteration of the algorithm.
