setSolverMINLP

Choose mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) solver for portfolio optimization

Since R2018b

Syntax

obj = setSolverMINLP(obj,solverTypeMINLP)

obj = setSolverMINLP(___,Name,Value)

Description

obj = setSolverMINLP(obj,solverTypeMINLP) selects the mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) solver and enables you to specify associated solver options for portfolio optimization for a Portfolio, PortfolioCVaR, or PortfolioMAD object.

When any one or any combination of 'Conditional' BoundType, MinNumAssets, or MaxNumAssets constraints are active, the portfolio problem is formulated by adding NumAssets binary variables. The binary variable 0 indicates that an asset is not invested and the binary variable 1 indicates that an asset is invested. For more information on using 'Conditional' BoundType, see setBounds. For more information on specifying MinNumAssets and MaxNumAssets, see setMinMaxNumAssets.

If you use the estimate functions with a Portfolio, PortfolioCVaR, or PortfolioMAD object for which any of the 'Conditional' BoundType, MinNumAssets, or MaxNumAssets constraints are active, MINLP solver is automatically used. For details on MINLP, see Algorithms.

obj = setSolverMINLP(___,Name,Value) specifies options using one or more name-value pair arguments in addition to the input arguments in the previous syntax.

Examples

Configure MINLP Solver and Options When Using a Portfolio Object

Configure the MINLP solver for a three-asset portfolio for which you have the mean and covariance values of the asset returns.

AssetMean = [ 0.0101110; 0.0043532; 0.0137058 ];
AssetCovar = [ 0.00324625 0.00022983 0.00420395;
               0.00022983 0.00049937 0.00019247;
               0.00420395 0.00019247 0.00764097 ]; 
p = Portfolio('AssetMean', AssetMean, 'AssetCovar', AssetCovar);

When working with a Portfolio object, use setBounds with a 'Conditional'BoundType constraint to set xi = 0 or 0.02 <= xi <= 0.5 for all i = 1,...NumAssets.

p = setBounds(p, 0.02, 0.5,'BoundType', 'Conditional', 'NumAssets', 3); 

When working with a Portfolio object, use setMinMaxNumAssets function to set up MinNumAssets and MaxNumAssets constraints for a portfolio. This sets limit constraints for the Portfolio object, where the total number of allocated assets satisfying the constraints is between MinNumAssets and MaxNumAssets. Setting MinNumAssets = MaxNumAssets = 2, specifies that only two of the three assets are invested in the portfolio.

p = setMinMaxNumAssets(p, 2, 2); 

Three different MINLP solvers (OuterApproximation, ExtendedCP, TrustRegionCP) use the cutting plane method. Use the setSolverMINLP function to configure the OuterApproximation solver and options.

Configure MINLP Solver and Options When Using a PortfolioCVaR Object

Configure the MINLP solver for a 12 asset portfolio that is using semicontinuous and cardinality constraints.

load CAPMuniverse
p = PortfolioCVaR('AssetList',Assets(1:12));
p = simulateNormalScenariosByData(p, Data(:,1:12),20000,'missingdata',true);
p = setProbabilityLevel(p, 0.95);

When working with a PortfolioCVaR object, the setMinMaxNumAssets function enables you to set up the limits on the number of assets invested. The following example specifies that a minimum of five assets and a maximum of 10 assets should be invested using setMinMaxNumAssets and the investments should be greater than 4% and less than 45% using setBounds.

p = setMinMaxNumAssets(p, 5, 10);

When working with a PortfolioMAD object, the setMinMaxNumAssets function enables you to set up the limits on the number of assets invested. The following example specifies that a minimum of five assets and a maximum of 10 assets should be invested using setMinMaxNumAssets and the investments should be greater than 4% and less than 45% using setBounds.

More About

MINLP Solvers

All three MINLP solvers ('OuterApproximation', 'ExtendedCP', and 'TrustRegionCP') defined by solverTypeMINLP rely on the cutting plane concept.

These MINLP solvers approximate the nonlinear convex function f(x) by a piecewise linear approximation, which is a sequence of linear cuts around the original function. In this way, the original MINLP is reduced to a sequence of MILP subproblems, each one with a more refined approximation to f(x) than previous MILPs, and yields a more optimal solution. The process continues until the solution found from MILP converges to the true function value within a certain tolerance.

• The 'ExtendedCP' solver iteratively adds a linear cut at the latest solution found to approximate f(x).

• The 'OuterApproximation' solver is similar to 'ExtendedCP', but they differ in where to add the cut. Instead of using the solution from the latest MILP, OuterApproximation uses the values of integer variables from the latest MILP solution and fixes them to reduce the MINLP to a nonlinear programming (NLP) problem. The cut is added at the solution from this NLP problem.

• The 'TrustRegionCP' solver is a version of 'ExtendedCP' that is modified to speed up the optimization process. In general, the trust region method uses a model to approximate the true function within a region at each iteration. In the context of the MINLP solver, the model is the maximum of all the added cuts. The true function is the nonlinear function f(x) in the optimization problem. The region of the model is updated based on how well the model approximates the true function for the iteration. This approximation is the comparison of the predicted reduction of the objective function using the model vs. the true reduction.

Tips

You can also use dot notation to specify associated name-value pair options.

obj = obj.setSolverMINLP(Name,Value);

Note

The solverTypeMINLP and solverOptionsMINLP properties cannot be set using dot notation because they are hidden properties. To set the solverTypeMINLP and solverOptionsMINLP properties, use the setSolverMINLP function directly.

Algorithms

When any one, or any combination of 'Conditional' BoundType, MinNumAssets, or MaxNumAssets constraints is active, the portfolio problem is formulated by adding NumAssets binary variables. The binary variable 0 indicates that an asset is not invested and the binary variable 1 indicates that an asset is invested.

The MinNumAssets and MaxNumAssets constraints narrow down the number of active positions in a portfolio to the range of [minN, maxN]. In addition, the 'Conditional' BoundType constraint is to set a lower and upper bound so that the position is either 0 or lies in the range [minWgt, maxWgt]. These two types of constraints are incorporated into the portfolio optimization model by introducing n variables, ν_i, which only take binary values 0 and 1 to indicate whether the corresponding asset is invested (1) or not invested (0). Here n is the total number of assets and the constraints can be formulated as the following linear inequality constraints:

$$\begin{array}{l}minN\le {\displaystyle \sum _{i=1}^n{\upsilon }_i\le }maxN\\ minWgt\ast {\upsilon }_i\le x_i\le maxWgt\ast {\upsilon }_i\\ 0\le \upsilon \le 1\\ {\upsilon }_i\text{ are integers}\end{array}$$

In this equation, minN and maxN are representations for MinNumAsset and MaxNumAsset that are set using setMinMaxNumAssets. Also, minWgt and maxWgt are representations for LowerBound and UpperBound that are set using setBounds.

The portfolio optimization problem to minimize the variance of the portfolio, subject to achieving a target expected return and some additional linear constraints on the portfolio weights, is formulated as

$$\begin{array}{l}minimiz{e}_x{x}^{T}Hx\\ s.t.m^{T}x\ge TargetReturn\\ Ax\le b\\ A_{eq}x=b_{eq}\\ lb\le x\le ub\end{array}$$

In this equation, H represents the covariance and m represents the asset returns.

The portfolio optimization problem to maximize the return, subject to an upper limit on the variance of the portfolio return and some additional linear constraints on the portfolio weights, is formulated as

$$\begin{array}{l}maximiz{e}_x{m}^{T}x\\ s.t.x^{T}Hx\le TargetRisk\\ Ax\le b\\ A_{eq}x=b_{eq}\\ lb\le x\le ub\end{array}$$

When the 'Conditional' BoundType, MinNumAssets, and MaxNumAssets constraints are added to the two optimization problems, the problems become:

$$\begin{array}{l}minimiz{e}_{x\upsilon }{x}^{T}Hx\\ s.t.m^{T}x\ge TargetReturn\\ A\text{'}[x;\upsilon ]\le b\text{'}\\ A_{eq}x=b_{eq}\\ minN\le {\displaystyle \sum _{i=1}^n{\upsilon }_i\le maxN}\\ minWgt({\upsilon }_i)\le x_i\le maxWgt({\upsilon }_i)\\ lb\le x\le ub\\ 0\le \upsilon \le 1\\ {\upsilon }_i\text{ are integers}\end{array}$$

$$\begin{array}{l}maximiz{e}_{x\upsilon }{m}^{T}x\\ s.t.x^{T}Hx\ge TargetRisk\\ A\text{'}[x;\upsilon ]\le b\text{'}\\ A_{eq}x=b_{eq}\\ minN\le {\displaystyle \sum _{i=1}^n{\upsilon }_i\le maxN}\\ minWgt\ast {\upsilon }_i\le x_i\le maxWgt({\upsilon }_i)\\ 0\le \upsilon \le 1\\ {\upsilon }_i\text{ are integers}\end{array}$$
