In many applications, such as metabolomics, data are composed of several continuous measurements of subjects (tissues) over multiple variables (metabolites)....
BibTeX reference
Constrained blackbox optimization is a difficult problem, with most approaches coming from the mathematical programming literature. The statistical literatur...
BibTeX reference
Blackbox optimization deals with situations in which the objective function and constraints are typically computed by launching a time-consuming computer ...
BibTeX reference
A preconditioned variant of the Golub and Kahan (1965) bidiagonalization process recently proposed by Arioli (2013) and Arioli and Orban (2013) allows us to ...
BibTeX referenceImproved primal simplex: A more general theoretical framework and an extended experimental analysis
In this article, we propose a general framework for an algorithm derived from the primal simplex that guarantees a strict improvement in the objective after ...

The dust suppression of hauling roads in open-pit mines is done by periodically spraying water from a water truck. The objective of this article is to presen...
BibTeX reference
Finding communities in complex networks is a topic of much current research and has applications in many domains. On the one hand, criteria for doing so hav...
BibTeX reference
This paper presents the first direct implementation of the positive edge criterion using COIN-OR's CLP, where it has been combined with the Devex pivot rule....
BibTeX reference
In this paper, we suggest a new approach called the <i>return function</i> to deal with the determination of Bayesian-Nash equilibria in games of incomplet...
BibTeX reference
Commercial piracy and counterfeiting are widespread phenomena in different businesses, ranging from software and video games to luxury fashion products. Th...
BibTeX reference
The <b>VRPTW-ST</b> introduced by Errico et al. (2013) in the form of a chance-constrained model mainly differs from other vehicle routing problems with st...
BibTeX reference
Typical challenges of simulation-based design optimization include unavailable gradients and unreliable approximations thereof, expensive function evaluation...
BibTeX reference
Hybrid power systems for off-grid sites are commonly designed using simulation. Operating rules for the controller dispatch strategy are defined, and a sim...
BibTeX reference
This article describes the problem in which the edges of a network represent customers, and a quantity of material is delivered to them so that each one achi...
BibTeX reference
A dynamic global hedging procedure making use of futures contracts is developed for a retailer of the electricity market facing price, load and basis risk. S...

This paper introduces a joint planning and management optimization approach for cellular networks to limit energy consumption while guaranteeing QoS and mini...
BibTeX referencePlanning for Energy-Aware Wireless Networks
The paper proposes a fundamental modeling and optimization framework for the planning of energy-aware wireless networks. The key idea is that, in order to p...
BibTeX referenceBuffer Dimensioning and Control Stations Positioning with a Space Partitioning-Tabu Search Approach
We propose an efficient heuristic method based on Space Partitioning (SP) and Tabu Search (TS) to solve the buffer sizing problem in unreliable production li...
BibTeX referenceAn Exact Method for Solving the Buffer Sizing and Inspection Stations Allocations Problem
An unreliable single part type transfer line with fixed inter machine buffer sizes is considered. In general, imperfect machines operating with imperfect raw...
