Globalized Robust Optimization for Nonlinear Uncertain Inequalities

Ben-Tal, Aharon - 2015

Robust optimization is a methodology that can be applied to problems that are affected by uncertainty in the problem's parameters. The classical robust counterpart (RC) of the problem requires the solution to be feasible for all uncertain parameter values in a so-called uncertainty set, and...
