摘要
The general problem of minimizing the maximal regret in combinatorial optimization problems with interval data is considered. In many cases, the minmax regret versions of the classical, polynomially solvable, combinatorial optimization problems become NP-hard and no approximation algorithms for them have been known. Our main result is a polynomial time approximation algorithm with a performance ratio of 2 for this class of problems. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
