"## Modeling a simple optimization problem\n",
"\n",
"To illustrate how can MIPLearn be used, we will model and solve a small optimization problem related to power systems optimization. The problem we discuss below is a simplification of the **unit commitment problem,** a practical optimization problem solved daily by electric grid operators around the world. \n",
"\n",
"Suppose that you work at a utility company, and that it is your job to decide which electrical generators should be online at a certain hour of the day, as well as how much power should each generator produce. More specifically, assume that your company owns $n$ generators, denoted by $g_1, \\ldots, g_n$. Each generator can either be online or offline. An online generator $g_i$ can produce between $p^\\text{min}_i$ to $p^\\text{max}_i$ megawatts of power, and it costs your company $c^\\text{fix}_i + c^\\text{var}_i y_i$, where $y_i$ is the amount of power produced. An offline generator produces nothing and costs nothing. You also know that the total amount of power to be produced needs to be exactly equal to the total demand $d$ (in megawatts). To minimize the costs to your company, which generators should be online, and how much power should they produce?\n",
"\n",
"This simple problem can be modeled as a *mixed-integer linear optimization* problem as follows. For each generator $g_i$, let $x_i \\in \\{0,1\\}$ be a decision variable indicating whether $g_i$ is online, and let $y_i \\geq 0$ be a decision variable indicating how much power does $g_i$ produce. The problem is then given by:\n",
"\n",
"$$\n",
"\\begin{align}\n",
"\\text{minimize } \\quad & \\sum_{i=1}^n \\left( c^\\text{fix}_i x_i + c^\\text{var}_i y_i \\right) \\\\\n",
"\\text{subject to } \\quad & y_i \\leq p^\\text{max}_i x_i & i=1,\\ldots,n \\\\\n",
"& y_i \\geq p^\\text{min}_i x_i & i=1,\\ldots,n \\\\\n",
"& \\sum_{i=1}^n y_i = d \\\\\n",
"& x_i \\in \\{0,1\\} & i=1,\\ldots,n \\\\\n",
"& y_i \\geq 0 & i=1,\\ldots,n\n",

"We use a simplified version of the unit commitment problem in this tutorial just to make it easier to follow. MIPLearn can also handle realistic, large-scale versions of this problem. See benchmarks for more details.\n",
" \n",
"</div>\n",
"\n",
"Next, let us convert this abstract mathematical formulation into a concrete optimization model, using Python and Pyomo. We start by defining a data class `UnitCommitmentData`, which holds all the input data."

"Although Gurobi could solve the small example above in a fraction of a second, it gets slower for larger and more complex versions of the problem. If this is a problem that needs to be solved frequently, as it is often the case in practice, it could make sense to spend some time upfront generating a **trained** version of Gurobi, which can solve new instances (similar to the ones it was trained on) faster.\n",
"\n",
"In the following, we will use MIPLearn to train machine learning models that is able to predict the optimal solution for instances that follow a given probability distribution, then it will provide this predicted solution to Gurobi as a warm start. Before we can train the model, we need to collect training data by solving a large number of instances. In real-world situations, we may construct these training instances based on historical data. In this tutorial, we will construct them using a random instance generator:"

"In this example, for simplicity, only the demands change from one instance to the next. We could also have randomized the costs, production limits or even the number of units. The more randomization we have in the training data, however, the more challenging it is for the machine learning models to learn solution patterns.\n",
"\n",
"Now we generate 500 instances of this problem, each one with 50 generators, and we use 450 of these instances for training. After generating the instances, we write them to individual files. MIPLearn uses files during the training process because, for large-scale optimization problems, it is often impractical to hold in memory the entire training data, as well as the concrete Pyomo models. Files also make it much easier to solve multiple instances simultaneously, potentially even on multiple machines. We will cover parallel and distributed computing in a future tutorial. The code below generates the files `uc/train/00000.pkl.gz`, `uc/train/00001.pkl.gz`, etc., which contain the input data in compressed (gzipped) pickle format."

"In the log above, the `MIP start` line is missing, and Gurobi had to start with a significantly inferior initial solution. The solver was still able to find the optimal solution at the end, but it required using its own internal heuristic procedures. In this example, because we solve very small optimization problems, there was almost no difference in terms of running time. For larger problems, however, the difference can be significant. See benchmarks for more details.\n",

"It is not necessary to specify what ML models to use. MIPLearn, by default, will try a number of classical ML models and will choose the one that performs the best, based on k-fold cross validation. MIPLearn is also able to automatically collect features based on the MIP formulation of the problem and the solution to the LP relaxation, among other things, so it does not require handcrafted features. If you do want to customize the models and features, however, that is also possible, as we will see in a later tutorial.\n",

"In the example above, we used `LearningSolver.solve` together with data files to solve both the training and the test instances. The optimal solutions were saved to HDF5 files in the train/test folders, and could be retrieved by reading theses files, but that is not very convenient. In the following example, we show how to build and solve a Pyomo model entirely in-memory, using our trained solver."
