Gurobi Mex is a free MATLAB interface for Gurobi 2, 3, and 4 written by Wotao Yin and voluntary contributors such as Jon Dattorro. It calls Gurobi to solve linear/mixed-integer optimization problems. Gurobi offers free trial and free academic license.

The interface is open source and subject to Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 United States License. It is a tool for MATLAB users to quickly call Gurobi, and its source code serves as a start point for those who want to develop a customized MATLAB interface for Gurobi.

Its current version 1.45 [download] was published on November 16, 2010, and it supports Gurobi 2, 3, and 4.



Contents

Model

 min/max  x'Cx + c'x

 subject to  
  Ax >= / <= / = b,  
  lb <= x <= ub,
  SOS constraints,
  x(i) is continuous / binary / integer / semi-continuous / semi-integer.

Syntax

x = gurobi_mex(c, objtype, A, b, contypes, lb, ub, vartypes);
x = gurobi_mex(c, objtype, A, b, contypes, lb, ub, vartypes, opts);
[x,val] = gurobi_mex(...);
[x,val,flag] = gurobi_mex(...);
[x,val,flag,output] = gurobi_mex(...);
[x,val,flag,output,lambda] = gurobi_mex(...);

Input Description

  • c: objective coefficient vector, double type.
[] (empty array) means uniformly 0 coefficients, and scalar means all coefficients equal to scalar.
  • objtype: 1 (minimization) or -1 (maximization).
  • A: constraint coefficient matrix, double type, sparse.
  • b: constraint right-hand side vector, double type.
Gurobi takes a dense vector for this input. If a sparse vector is specified, it will be converted to full by Gurobi Mex.
  • contypes: constraint types. Char array of '>', '<', '='.
Warning: '>=' specifies two constraints, not one.
Example: '>><=' specifies four constraints. The first two constraints have greater or equal to signs, the third has less than or equal to sign, and the last is an equality constraint.
If a single character is specified, all constraints have the corresponding type uniformly.
  • lb: variable lower bound, double type, either scalar or vector.
[] (empty array) means 0 lower bound. -inf means no lower bound. If a scalar is specified, it will be the uniform lower bound for all variables.
  • ub: variable upper bound, double type, either scalar or vector.
[] (empty array) means no (or infinity) upper bound. If a scalar is specified, it will be the uniform upper bound for all variables.
  • vartypes: variable types, char array of 'C', 'B', 'I', 'S', 'N'. 'C' for continuous; 'B' for binary; 'I' for integer; 'S' for semi-continuous; 'N' for semi-integer. [] (empty array) means all variables are continuous.
Example: 'CCCCC' specifies five continuous variables.
Note that semi-continuous variables are variables that must take a value between their minimum and maximum or zero. Semi-integer variables are similarly defined.
If a single character is specified, all variables will be signed to the corresponding type uniformly.

Gurobi Parameters

  • opts: optional structure that may have any number of Gurobi parameters as its fields. See Gurobi Parameters for their allowed values. In addition, the following fields are supported:
    • opts.QP: Quadratic objective terms. See here.
    • opts.SOS: Special ordered set constraints. See here.
    • opts.Start: Gurobi's attribute 'Start', MIP start vector. See here.
    • opts.TrapCtrlC: true (to trap Ctrl-C) or false (not to trap Ctrl-C).
    • opts.Display: screen output level. 0 (no output); 1 (error only); 2 (default output). For complete silence, set opts.DisplayInterval=0 (to let Gurobi be silent) and opts.Display=0 (to let this mex program be silent).
    • opts.WriteToFile: char array of the name of the file to which optimization data is written. See Gurobi C-Reference entry GRBwrite for supported formats. This option helps one verify whether the model is correctly passed to Gurobi.

Output Description

  • x: primal solution vector; empty if Gurobi encounters errors or stops early (in this case, check output flag).
  • val: optimal objective value; empty if Gurobi encounters errors or stops early.
  • flag: value meanings:
    • 1 for not started
    • 2 for optimal
    • 3 for infeasible
    • 4 for infeasible or unbounded
    • 5 for unbounded
    • 6 for objective worse than user-specified cutoff
    • 7 for reaching iteration limit
    • 8 for reaching node limit
    • 9 for reaching time limit
    • 10 for reaching solution limit
    • 11 for user interruption
    • 12 for numerical difficulties
    • 13 for suboptimal solution (Gurobi 3 and later)
  • output: structure contains the following fields
    • output.IterCount: number of Simplex iterations
    • output.Runtime: running time in seconds
    • output.ErrorMsg: contains Gurobi error message, if any
  • lambda: Lagrange multipliers. Because solving MIPs gives no such output, do not ask for this output for MIPs.

Notes

Quadratic Programming

Gurobi 4 and later solve quadratic programs. The quadratic terms in the objective function should be specified by opts.QP.qrow, opts.QP.qcol, and opts.QP.qval, which correspond to the input arguments qrow, qcol, and qval of function GRBaddqpterms. They are all 1D arrays. The first two arguments, qrow and qcol, specify the row and column indices (starting from 0) of 2nd-order terms such as LaTeX: x_1^2 and LaTeX: x_1 x_2. The third argument, qval, gives their coefficients. An example is given below.


SOS Constraints

SOS stands for Special Ordered Sets. This mex program uses opts.SOS.weights and opts.SOS.types to pass SOS constraints to Gurobi. opts.SOS.weights is a sparse matrix describing the weights of SOS variables, and opts.SOS.types a 1D array of type int32 or int64 (depending on your system), which specifies the constraint types. Here is an example with 4 variables and 3 SOS constraints:

SOS1: x1 = 0 or x2 = 0
SOS1: x1 = 0 or x3 = 0
SOS2: (x1, x3, x2, x4)

The corresponding code for a 32-bit system is

 opts.SOS.weights = sparse([
  1 1 1; 
  2 0 3; 
  0 2 2; 
  0 0 4]);
 opts.SOS.types = int32([1 1 2]);

The ith column of opts.SOS.weights specifies the weights (i.e., orders) of the variables in the ith SOS constraint.


MIP Start Vector

To specify an MIP start vector, say x = [1 0 3 2], one can use one of the following two ways:

opts.Start = [1 0 3 2];

or

opts.Start.pos = int32([0 1 2 3]); % use int64 for 64-bit computation
opts.Start.val = [1 0 3 2];

To specify start values for a subset of variables, for example to set x = [? ? 3 2], where ? means undefined, one can choose either one of the following two ways

GRB_UNDEFINED = 1e101;
opts.Start = [GRB_UNDEFINED  GRB_UNDEFINED  3 2];

or

opts.Start.pos = int32([2 3]); % use int64 for 64-bit computation
opts.Start.val = [3 2];

How to pass a parameter from MATLAB to Gurobi?

v1.35 and v1.45 support all parameters of Gurobi 3.0.1 and 4.0, respectively. However, if you want to specify a new or undocumented Gurobi parameter of your interest, you can DIY very easily. Suppose that we want to set a double-type parameter called SecretPara in MATLAB and pass it through this mex interface to Gurobi. Because the parameter TimeLimit has the same (double) type and it is already supported by this mex program, we can copy the code for TimeLimit, replace TimeLimit by SecretPara in the code, and paste it at Line 1250 of v1.35 (or Line 510 of v1.30), just before the mex program checks unrecognized input option fields. After compiling gurobi.c, the modified mex will let you assign a double value to opts.SecretPara. We compare the code for TimeLimit and SecretPara below where the differences are italicized:

       /* Option TimeLimit */
       field_n = mxGetFieldNumber(IN_OPTS, "TimeLimit");
       if (field_n != -1) {
           field = mxGetFieldByNumber(IN_OPTS,0,field_n);
           bOpts[field_n] = true;
           if (!mxIsDouble(field) || mxIsComplex(field) || mxIsEmpty(field)) {
                mexPrintf("Option TimeLimit must be real positive double (0 to inf).");
                goto QUIT;
           }
           error = GRBsetdblparam(env, "TimeLimit", mxGetScalar(field));
           if (error) goto QUIT;
       }
       /* Option SecretPara */
       field_n = mxGetFieldNumber(IN_OPTS, "SecretPara");
       if (field_n != -1) {
           field = mxGetFieldByNumber(IN_OPTS,0,field_n);
           bOpts[field_n] = true;
           if (!mxIsDouble(field) || mxIsComplex(field) || mxIsEmpty(field)) {
                mexPrintf("Option SecretPara must real double (?? through ??).");
                goto QUIT;
           }
           error = GRBsetdblparam(env, "SecretPara", mxGetScalar(field));
           if (error) goto QUIT;
       }

Note that you must start from a parameter of the same type (int, double, or string). In case memory allocation is needed, please use mxMalloc and make sure that mxFree has been called whenever the mex program exits, normally or not.

Callbacks

Callbacks are useful to obtain the progress of Gurobi (e.g., by calling GRBcbget) and to modify its behavior during runtime (e.g., by calling GRBcbcut and GRBcbsolution).

Gurobi Mex implements a callback function mycallback to obtain Gurobi's progress messages and print them on the MATLAB screen. The print frequency is set in opts.DisplayInterval (in seconds). The same function is also used to detect user input Ctrl-C.

Information for Gurobi callbacks can be found here in Gurobi's help. An example can be found here.

Four Examples

Example 1. Linear programming

This example is borrowed from MATLAB's linprog help.

Problem:

 min –5 x1 – 4 x2 –6 x3,

 subject to
  x1 – x2 + x3 ≤ 20
  3 x1 + 2 x2 + 4 x3 ≤ 42
  3 x1 + 2 x2 ≤ 30
  0 ≤ x1, 0 ≤ x2, 0 ≤ x3.

MATLAB code:

 c = [-5; -4; -6];
 objtype = 1;
 A =  sparse([1 -1  1; 3  2  4; 3  2  0]);
 b = [20; 42; 30];
 lb = zeros(3,1);           % same as lb = [];
 ub = [];
 contypes = '<<<';
 vtypes = [];               % same as vtypes = 'CCC'; [] means 'C...C'

 clear opts
 opts.IterationLimit = 20;
 opts.FeasibilityTol = 1e-6;
 opts.IntFeasTol = 1e-5;
 opts.OptimalityTol = 1e-6;
 opts.LPMethod = 1;         % 0 - primal, 1 - dual
 opts.Presolve = -1;        % -1 - auto, 0 - no, 1 - conserv, 2 - aggressive
 opts.Display = 1;
 opts.LogFile = 'test_gurobi_mex_LP.log';     % optional
 opts.WriteToFile = 'test_gurobi_mex_LP.mps'; % optional; it can cause a long delay if problem is large

 [x,val,exitflag,output,lambda] = gurobi_mex(c,objtype,A,b,contypes,lb,ub,vtypes,opts);

Results:

 x' = 
    0 15 3

 val = 
    -78

 exitflag =
    2

 output =
    IterCount: 2
      Runtime: 0
     ErrorMsg: []

 lambda' =
    0   -1.5000   -0.5000

Example 2. Integer programming

This example is borrowed from mip1_c.c of Gurobi 2.0.

Problem:

 max  x + y + 2z,

 subject to
  x + 2 y + 3 z <= 4
  x +   y       >= 1
  x, y, z binary.

MATLAB code:

 c = [1; 1; 2];
 objtype = -1;              % 1 for minimize, -1 for maximize
 A =  sparse([1 2 3; 1 1 0]);
 b = [4; 1];
 lb = [];
 ub = [];
 contypes = '<>';
 vtypes = 'BBB';

 clear opts
 opts.IterationLimit = 20;
 opts.FeasibilityTol = 1e-6;
 opts.IntFeasTol = 1e-5;
 opts.OptimalityTol = 1e-6;
 opts.LPMethod = 1;         % 0 - primal, 1 - dual
 opts.Presolve = -1;        % -1 - auto, 0 - no, 1 - conserv, 2 - aggressive
 opts.Display = 1;
 opts.LogFile = 'test_gurobi_mex_MIP.log';
 opts.WriteToFile = 'test_gurobi_mex_MIP.mps';  % this option can cause a long delay if problem is large

 [x,val,exitflag,output] = gurobi_mex(c,objtype,A,b,contypes,lb,ub,vtypes,opts);

Gurobi does not give lambda (Pi, or Lagrange multipliers) for MIPs, unless model fix is called.

Results:

 disp('Solution:');disp(x')
 disp('Optimal obj value:');disp(val)
 disp('Exit flag:');disp(exitflag)
 disp('Optimization info:');disp(output)

 Solution:
     1     0     1

 Optimal obj value:
     3

 Exit flag:
     2

 Optimization info:
    IterCount: 0
      Runtime: 0
     ErrorMsg: []

  5 x1 + 4 x2        + 5 x4 >= -21
  5 x1 + 3 x2 + 1 x3 + 4 x4  = -14
  3 x1 + 5 x2 + 2 x3 - 5 x4  =  11
  x1,x2,x3,x4 >= 0.

MATLAB code:

 c = [];                    % use [] or 0 for null objective
 objtype = -1;              % 1 for minimize, -1 for maximize
 A =  sparse([5 4 0 5; 5 3 1 4; 3 5 2 -5]);
 b = [-21; -14; 11];        
 lb = [];                   % stands for 0 lower bound uniformly 
 ub = [];                   % stands for inf upper bound uniformly 
 contypes = '>==';
 vtypes = [];               % same as vtypes = 'CCCC'

 clear opts
 opts.FeasibilityTol = 1e-6;
 opts.Presolve = -1;        % -1 - auto, 0 - no, 1 - conserv, 2 - aggressive
 opts.Display = 1;
 opts.LogFile = 'test_gurobi_mex_Feasibility.log';
 opts.WriteToFile = 'test_gurobi_mex_Feasibility.mps';  % this option can cause a long delay if problem is large

 [x,val,exitflag,output] = gurobi_mex(c,objtype,A,b,contypes,lb,ub,vtypes,opts);

Results:

 disp('Solution:');disp(x')
 disp('Optimal obj value:');disp(val)
 disp('Exit flag:');disp(exitflag)

 Model is infeasible. No solution will be returned.

 Solution:

subject to
  x1 + x2 + x3 <= 2,
  0 <= x1 <= 1, 0 <= x2 <= 1, 0 <= x3 <= 2,
  SOS type 1: x1 = 0 or x2 = 0,
  SOS type 1: x1 = 0 or x3 = 0.

MATLAB code:

 c = [-3; -1; -1];
 objtype = 1;
 A =  sparse([1 1 1]);
 b = 2;
 lb = []; % means 0 lower bound
 ub = [1 1 2];
 contypes = '<';
 vtypes = []; % same as vtypes = 'CCC'
 sos.weights = sparse([1 1; 2 0; 0 2]);
 sos.types = int32([1 1]);   % Both the SOS constraints are of type 1

 clear opts
 opts.FeasibilityTol = 1e-6;
 opts.Presolve = -1;        % -1 - auto, 0 - no, 1 - conserv, 2 - aggressive
 opts.Display = 1;
 opts.LogFile = 'test_gurobi_mex_Feasibility.log';
 opts.WriteToFile = 'test_gurobi_mex_Feasibility.mps';

 [x,val,exitflag,output] = gurobi_mex(c,objtype,A,b,contypes,lb,ub,vtypes,opts);

Results:

 Optimal solution found (tolerance 1.00e-04)
 Best objective -3.0000000000e+00, best bound -3.0000000000e+00, gap 0.0%

  x >= 0, y >= 0.

MATLAB code:

 c = [-2 -6];    % objective linear term
 objtype = 1;    % minimization
 A =  sparse([1 1; -1 2; 2 1]); % constraint coefficients

 contypes = '<<<'; % three <= inequalities
 vtypes = [];      % [] means all variables are continuous
 opts.QP.qrow = int32([0 0 1]); % indices of x, x, y as in (0.5 x^2 - x*y + y^2); use int64 for 64-bit computation
 opts.QP.qcol = int32([0 1 1]); % indices of x, y, y as in (0.5 x^2 - x*y + y^2); use int64 for 64-bit computation

Install Gurobi Mex in MATLAB

Step 1. Preparation

Refer to Gurobi's installation guide. Please make sure that (i) proper environment variables are set, (ii) your copy of Gurobi has a license, and (iii) the license has been successfully validated.

Make sure that your MATLAB has been set up to use a supported external C compiler such as GCC and MS Visual C++. Run mex -setup if necessary. Do not use the built-in lcc, which cannot link with Gurobi's library.

If you use Gurobi 2, please uncomment Line 20 of gurobi_mex.c regarding GRB_SUBOPTIMAL since it was introduced in Gurobi 3.

If you use Gurobi 2 and 3, keep in mind that opts.Method corresponds to their parameter LPMethod.

Step 2. Compiling Gurobi Mex

Step 2a. Windows
mex -O -I"<gurobi include path>" "<gurobi_mex.c>" "<gurobi C library file>" "<MATLAB libut.lib>"

For 64-bit MATLAB, please add option "-largeArrayDims".

Example with Gurobi 4.00, MSVC2008, MATLAB 2009B, and 32-bit Windows

mex -O -I"C:\Gurobi400\win32\include" "C:\folder\gurobi_mex.c" "C:\Gurobi400\win32\lib\gurobi40.lib" "C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2009b\extern\lib\win32\microsoft\libut.lib"
Missing libut.lib?

Ctrl-C detection requires libut.lib. If it is not found under your copy of MATLAB, you can download one for 32-bit Windows and 64-bit Windows (courtesy of Imre Polik).

Alternatively, libut.lib can be manually generated by creating a .def text file including the following five lines

LIBRARY libut.dll
EXPORTS
utIsInterruptPending
utSetInterruptPending
[empty line]

and then calling lib.exe (included in MSVC) like

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin\lib" /def:libut.def /out:libut.lib /machine:x86

where /machine:x86 should be replaced by /machine:x64 for 64-bit Windows.

Step 2b. Linux/Unix
mex -O -I"<gurobi include path>" "<gurobi_mex.c>" -L"<gurobi lib path>" -l<gurobi C library file> -lut

For 64-bit MATLAB, please add option "-largeArrayDims".

Example with Gurobi 3.00, GCC, MATLAB 2009B, and 64-bit Linux

mex -O -I"/opt/gurobi300/linux64/include" "/home/wotao/gurobi mex/gurobi_mex.c" -L"/opt/gurobi300/linux64/lib" -lgurobi30 -lut -largeArrayDims

Tested platforms

  • 64-bit Ubuntu Linux 9.10, 64-bit MATLAB, and gcc.
  • 32-bit Windows, 32-bit MATLAB, and gcc (part of free Mingw/GnuMex, alternatively TDM-GCC).
  • 32-bit Windows, 32-bit MATLAB, and MSVC 2008 SP1 (the express Edition is free).
  • 64-bit Windows, 64-bit MATLAB, and MSVC 2008 SP1 (the express Edition is free). Courtesy of Imre Polik.
