ROI_reformulate {ROI}

Reformulate a Optimization Problem

Description

Register a new reformulation method.

Usage

ROI_reformulate(x, to, method = NULL)

Arguments

x

an object of class 'OP' giving the optimization problem.

to

a data.frame with the supported signatures.

method

a character string giving the name of the method.

Details

Currently ROI provides two reformulation methods.

1. bqp_to_lp transforms binary quadratic problems to linear mixed integer problems.

2. qp_to_socp transforms quadratic problems with linear constraints to second-order cone problems.

Value

the reformulated optimization problem.
