SOS1 Reformulation Threshold
Type : Floating point number
Range : [-1,1e10]
Default : -1
This option controls the automatic reformulation of SOS1 constraints into binary form. SOS1 constraints are often handled more efficiently using a binary representation. The reformulation often requires big-M values to be introduced as coefficients. This option specifies the largest big-M that can be introduced by presolve when performing this reformulation. Larger values increase the chances that an SOS1 constraint will be reformulated, but very large values (e.g., 1e8) can lead to numerical issues.
The default value of -1 chooses a threshold automatically. You should set this option to 0 to shut off SOS1 reformulation entirely, or a large value to force reformulation.
Note
The reformulation of SOS1 constraints is also influenced by the SOS1 Encoding option.
