Abstract: |
Multistage stochastic programs are
effective for solving long-term planning problems under uncertainty. Such
programs are usually based on a scenario model of future environment developments. A good
approximation of the underlying stochastic process may involve a very large
number of scenarios and their probabilities. We discuss the case when enough
data paths can be generated, but due to solvability of stochastic program the
scenario tree has to be constructed. The proposed strategy is to generate the
multistage scenario tree from the set of individual scenarios by bundling
scenarios based on cluster analysis. The K-means clustering approach is
modified to capture the interstage dependencies in
order to model the sequential decisions. The described scenario tree
generation method is implemented on sampled data of nominal interest rate. |
