Summary
Interior-point method for linear programming
Extended Summary
The interior-point method uses the primal-dual path following algorithm outlined in [1]. This algorithm supports sparse constraint matrices and is typically faster than the simplex methods, especially for large, sparse problems. Note, however, that the solution returned may be slightly less accurate than those of the simplex methods and will not, in general, correspond with a vertex of the polytope defined by the constraints.
