Abstract:

Evaluating and optimizing system of system (SoS) capabilities under uncertain conditions is an important way and means to enhance the efficiency of military system construction. This paper focuses on the optimization problem of multiple "cost-capability" options in the construction of the military system. Drawing on the theory of portfolio optimization, eXtreme gradient boosting (XGboost) binary classification model, linear regression, three-point estimation and other methods are used to construct a "cost-capability" combination optimization model. Multiple evaluation criteria are summarized to determine the economic value and sensitivity to the uncertainty of the alternative options. The optimal alternative solution is comprehensively analyzed and applied to a system construction cases for verification. The research results provide theoretical basis and practical methods for the evaluation and optimization of "cost-capability" combination alternative options.

Key words: combination optimization, eXtreme gradient boosting (XGboost) binary classification, linear regression, three-point estimation, system of system (SoS) capability
