Linear Optimization: Active Constraints

Description

This lecture introduces the concept of active constraints in the context of linear optimization, where finding an optimal solution involves identifying which constraints are active. Through examples, the instructor explains how active constraints impact the optimization process, showing that ignoring inactive constraints can simplify the problem. By identifying and focusing on active constraints, one can transform an optimization problem with inequality constraints into one with equality constraints, leading to a more streamlined solution.
