Detailed Description

Abstract branching object base class Now just difference with OsiBranchingObject.

In the abstract, an CbcBranchingObject contains instructions for how to branch. We want an abstract class so that we can describe how to branch on simple objects (e.g., integers) and more exotic objects (e.g., cliques or hyperplanes).

The branch() method is the crucial routine: it is expected to be able to step through a set of branch arms, executing the actions required to create each subproblem in turn. The base class is primarily virtual to allow for a wide range of problem modifications.

See CbcObject for an overview of the three classes (CbcObject, CbcBranchingObject, and CbcBranchDecision) which make up cbc's branching model.

CbcBranchingObject& CbcBranchingObject::operator= ( const CbcBranchingObject rhs)

Assignment operator.

virtual CbcBranchingObject* CbcBranchingObject::clone ( ) const
pure virtual
virtual int CbcBranchingObject::fillStrongInfo ( CbcStrongInfo )
inlinevirtual

Some branchingObjects may claim to be able to skip strong branching.

If so they have to fill in CbcStrongInfo. The object mention in incoming CbcStrongInfo must match. Returns nonzero if skip is wanted

Reimplemented in CbcDynamicPseudoCostBranchingObject.

Definition at line 76 of file CbcBranchingObject.hpp.

void CbcBranchingObject::resetNumberBranchesLeft ( )
inline

Reset number of branches left to original.

Definition at line 81 of file CbcBranchingObject.hpp.

void CbcBranchingObject::setNumberBranches ( int  value)
inline

Set number of branches to do.

Definition at line 86 of file CbcBranchingObject.hpp.

virtual double CbcBranchingObject::branch ( )
pure virtual

Execute the actions required to branch, as specified by the current state of the branching object, and advance the object's state.

Mainly for diagnostics, whether it is true branch or strong branching is also passed. Returns change in guessed objective on next branch

Reimplemented from OsiBranchingObject.

Implemented in CbcIntegerPseudoCostBranchingObject, CbcOrbitalBranchingObject, CbcLongCliqueBranchingObject, CbcSOSBranchingObject, CbcLotsizeBranchingObject, CbcCliqueBranchingObject, CbcDynamicPseudoCostBranchingObject, CbcCutBranchingObject, CbcLinkBranchingObject, CbcNWayBranchingObject, CbcFixingBranchingObject, CbcIntegerBranchingObject, and CbcDummyBranchingObject.

virtual double CbcBranchingObject::branch ( OsiSolverInterface )
inlinevirtual

Execute the actions required to branch, as specified by the current state of the branching object, and advance the object's state.

Mainly for diagnostics, whether it is true branch or strong branching is also passed. Returns change in guessed objective on next branch

Implements OsiBranchingObject.

Definition at line 105 of file CbcBranchingObject.hpp.

virtual void CbcBranchingObject::fix ( OsiSolverInterface ,
double *  ,
double *  ,
int   
) const
inlinevirtual

Update bounds in solver as in 'branch' and update given bounds.

branchState is -1 for 'down' +1 for 'up'

Reimplemented in CbcOrbitalBranchingObject, CbcSOSBranchingObject, and CbcIntegerBranchingObject.

Definition at line 111 of file CbcBranchingObject.hpp.

virtual bool CbcBranchingObject::tighten ( OsiSolverInterface )
inlinevirtual

Change (tighten) bounds in object to reflect bounds in solver.

Return true if now fixed

Reimplemented in CbcIntegerBranchingObject.

Definition at line 117 of file CbcBranchingObject.hpp.

virtual void CbcBranchingObject::previousBranch ( )
inlinevirtual

Reset every information so that the branching object appears to point to the previous child.

This method does not need to modify anything in any solver.

Reimplemented in CbcOrbitalBranchingObject, and CbcSOSBranchingObject.

Definition at line 122 of file CbcBranchingObject.hpp.

virtual void CbcBranchingObject::print ( ) const
inlinevirtual

Print something about branch - only if log level high.

Definition at line 132 of file CbcBranchingObject.hpp.

int CbcBranchingObject::variable ( ) const
inline

Index identifying the associated CbcObject within its class.

The name is misleading, and typically the index will not refer directly to a variable. Rather, it identifies an CbcObject within the class of similar CbcObjects

E.g., for an CbcSimpleInteger, variable() is the index of the integer variable in the set of integer variables (not the index of the variable in the set of all variables).

Definition at line 145 of file CbcBranchingObject.hpp.

int CbcBranchingObject::way ( ) const
inline

Get the state of the branching object.

Returns a code indicating the active arm of the branching object. The precise meaning is defined in the derived class.

virtual CbcBranchObjType CbcBranchingObject::type ( ) const
pure virtual
virtual int CbcBranchingObject::compareOriginalObject ( const CbcBranchingObject brObj) const
inlinevirtual

Compare the original object of this with the original object of brObj.

Assumes that there is an ordering of the original objects. This method should be invoked only if this and brObj are of the same type. Return negative/0/positive depending on whether this is smaller/same/larger than the argument.

Reimplemented in CbcOrbitalBranchingObject, CbcLongCliqueBranchingObject, CbcSOSBranchingObject, CbcCliqueBranchingObject, CbcCutBranchingObject, CbcNWayBranchingObject, CbcFixingBranchingObject, and CbcDummyBranchingObject.

Definition at line 208 of file CbcBranchingObject.hpp.

virtual CbcRangeCompare CbcBranchingObject::compareBranchingObject ( const CbcBranchingObject brObj,
const bool  replaceIfOverlap = false 
)
pure virtual

Compare the this with brObj.

this and brObj must be of the same type and must have the same original object, but they may have different feasible regions. Return the appropriate CbcRangeCompare value (first argument being the sub/superset if that's the case). In case of overlap (and if replaceIfOverlap is true) replace the current branching object with one whose feasible region is the overlap.

The state of the branching object.

Specifies the active arm of the branching object. Coded as -1 to take the `down' arm, +1 for the `up' arm. `Down' and `up' are defined based on the natural meaning (floor and ceiling, respectively) for a simple integer. The precise meaning is defined in the derived class.
