A Context-Aware Cutting Plane Selection Algorithm for Mixed-Integer Programming

Mark Turner, Timo Berthold, Mathieu Besançon

The current cut selection algorithm used in mixed-integer programming solvers has remained largely unchanged since its creation. In this paper, we propose a set of new cut scoring measures, cut filtering techniques, and stopping criteria, extending the current state-of-the-art algorithm and obtaining a 5\% performance improvement for SCIP over the MIPLIB 2017 benchmark set.
