Title: Mixed Integer Goal Programming for Personalized Meal Optimization with User-Defined Serving Granularity
Abstract:
arXiv:2605.13849v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Determining what to eat to satisfy nutritional requirements is one of the oldest optimization problems in operations research, yet existing formulations have two persistent limitations: continuous variables produce impractical fractional servings (1.7 eggs, 0.37 bananas), and hard nutrient constraints cause infeasibility when targets conflict. A systematic review of 56 diet optimization papers found that none combine integer programming with goal p
