Presentation Transcript

  1. Dynamic Restart Policies JIN Xiaolong (Based on [1] )

  2. Traditional Restart • Two assumptions: • Only one feasible observation: the length of a run; • Complete or no knowledge; • Results: • For complete knowledge: a fixed cutoff • For no knowledge: 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 2, 4,…

  3. Dynamic Restart • Basic Idea: • Sample from an instance ensemble; • Explore the possible run-time distribution(s) of the samples by a Bayesian Learning Method; • Build a predictive model to predict run-time;

  4. Dynamic Restart (Cont.) One possible distribution: Multiple possible distributions: T: the cutoff; q(t): the probability of a run stopping at t; E(T): the expected run-time given a cutoff T;

  5. Results & Features • Dynamic restart policies VS Fixed restart policies: about 40~65% improvement in solution time; • Features: • Dynamically tune the cutoff; • The running is separated with the learning; • Bayesian learning method is slow in speed;
