Как установить разрыв оптимальности в PULP-OR с помощью решателя CBC?

В документации точно показано, как передавать параметры решателям. Возможно, не все параметры cbcs поддерживаются, но код пульпа показывает, что нужная вам задача обрабатывается аргументом fracGap.

class COIN_CMD(LpSolver_CMD):
    """The COIN CLP/CBC LP solver
    now only uses cbc
    """

    def defaultPath(self):
        return self.executableExtension(cbc_path)

    def __init__(self, path = None, keepFiles = 0, mip = 1,
            msg = 0, cuts = None, presolve = None, dual = None,
            strong = None, options = [],
            fracGap = None, maxSeconds = None, threads = None)

Давайте возьмем один пример целлюлозы, отсюда.
