| Abstract: | Sensitivity analysis, compared with parametric optimization, is often presented as a way of checking if the solution of a deterministic linear program is reliable -- even if some of the parameters are not fully known but are instead replaced by a best guess, often a sample mean. It is customary to claim that if the region over which a certain basis is optimal is large, one is fairly safe by using the solution of the linear program. |
