Abstract: In many areas of knowledge, situations in which we have to model and solve optimization problems are recurrent. Among the mathematical theories that support the solution of such problems, ...

In 2022, global production of construction materials accounted for more than 7% of total carbon emissions. But how many of those materials were truly necessary to build houses, buildings and bridges?

I am a sucker for a great sports analogy. In fact, my PhD thesis was literally titled From the Locker Room to the Boardroom, and to this day, Al Pacino's epic 'Game of Inches' speech from Any Given ...

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...

Enterprises across industries, from energy to finance, use optimization models to plan complex operations like supply chains and logistics. These models work by defining three elements: the choices ...

Note: The official name for the course is “Convex optimization for electrical engineering”. However, the course is suitable for any student within SEAS (or beyond) provided you satisfy the math ...

Neel Somani points out that while artificial intelligence may look like it runs on data and algorithms, its real engine is optimization. According to Somani, every breakthrough in the field—from ...

This repository provides simple examples of how to construct a configuration space using the ConfigSpace package, how to use BOHB with minimal efforts and how to run CAVE to generate a comprehensive ...

If you regularly scroll health and wellness content online, you’ve no doubt heard of optimising. Optimisation usually means striving to make something the best it can be – the “optimal” version. A ...
