Dr. Hearn give an overview of his program – Optimization and Discrete Mathematics at the AFOSR (Air Force) Spring Review 2012. – Describes the value of the travelling salesman problem and how they can ...

Abstract: Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is predominately used to find solutions for continuous optimization problems. As the operators of PSO are originally designed in an n-dimensional continuous ...

Note that the higher the dimensionality (parameters number) of the optimization problem, the harder it is, and the slower the optimization process is. A family of problem-independent, gradient-free, ...

Abstract: Decades of progress in simulation-based surrogate assisted optimization and unprecedented growth in computational power have enabled researchers and practitioners to optimize previously ...

The targets of this research are problem-solving mathematical models that can solve mathematically vague problems in the real world by formulating them as mathematical problems. Such mathematical ...

OptiMods provides data-driven APIs for specific optimization problems. “Many people have real-life business problems that can be solved with mathematical optimization, and they don’t even realize it.

Methods for NP-hard discrete optimization problems, including general methods like branch-and-bound and cutting planes, as well as special purpose branch-and-cut methods. Students will be able to ...
