Probabilistic solutions to some NP-hard matrix problems

چکیده
During recent years, it has been shown that a number of problems in matrix theory are NP-hard, including robust nonsingularity, robust stability, robust positive semide"niteness, robust bounded norm, state feedback stabilization with structural and norm constraints, etc. In this paper, we use standard bounds on empirical probabilities as well as recent results from statistical learning theory on the VC-dimension of families of sets de"ned by a "nite number of polynomial inequalities, to show that for each of the above problems, as well as for still more general and more di$cult problems, there exists a polynomial-time randomized algorithm that can provide a yes or no answer to arbitrarily small levels of accuracy and con"dence. 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Parallelizing Assignment Problem with DNA Strands
Background:Many problems of combinatorial optimization, which are solvable only in exponential time, are known to be Non-Deterministic Polynomial hard (NP-hard). With the advent of parallel machines, new opportunities have been emerged to develop the effective solutions for NP-hard problems. However, solving these problems in polynomial time needs massive parallel machines and ...
متن کاملA new heuristic approach for the large-scale Generalized assignment problem
This paper presents a heuristic approach to solve the Generalized Assignment Problem (GAP) which is NP-hard. It is worth mentioning that many researches used to develop algorithms for identifying the redundant constraints and variables in linear programming model. Some of the algorithms are presented using intercept matrix of the constraints to identify redundant constraints and variables prior...
متن کاملSeparable programming problems with the max-product fuzzy relation equation constraints
In this paper, the separable programming problem subject to Fuzzy Relation Equation (FRE) constraints is studied. It is decomposed to two subproblems with decreasing and increasing objective functions with the same constraints. They are solved by the maximum solution and one of minimal solutions of its feasible domain, respectively. Their combination produces the original optimal solution. The ...
متن کاملFinding Approximate Solutions to NP-Hard Problems by Neural Networks is Hard
Finding approximate solutions to hard combinatorial optimization problems by neu-ral networks is a very attractive prospect. Many empirical studies have been done in the area. However, recent research about a neural network model indicates that for any NP-hard problem the existance of a polynomial size network that solves it implies that NP=co-NP, which is contrary to the well-known conjecture ...
متن کاملA New heuristic approach for large size Zero-One Multi Knapsack Problem using intercept matrix
This paper presents a heuristic to solve large size 0-1 Multi constrained Knapsack problem (01MKP) which is NP-hard. Many researchers are used heuristic operator to identify the redundant constraints of Linear Programming Problem before applying the regular procedure to solve it. We use the intercept matrix to identify the zero valued variables of 01MKP which is known as redundant variables. In...
