Abstract

Many optimization problems are formulated as generalized geometric programming (GGP) containing signomial terms f ( X )· g ( Y ), where X and Y are continuous and discrete free-sign vectors, respectively. By effectively convexifying f ( X ) and linearizing g ( Y ), this study globally solves a GGP with a lower number of binary variables than are used in current GGP methods. Numerical experiments demonstrate the computational efficiency of the proposed method.
