An innovative strategic mine planning approach is applied to a multi-mine and multi-process gold mining complex that simultaneously considers feasible capita...

We consider the problem of scheduling maintenance for a collection of machines under partial observations when the state of each machine deteriorates stochas...

Energy generation has always been a major stake in our economy and is all the more so with the increase in energy demand all over the world. In that context,...

Generation expansion planning (GEP) is a classical problem that determines an optimal investment plan for existing and future electricity generation technolo...

Conditional estimation given specific covariate values (i.e., local conditional estimation or functional estimation) is ubiquitously useful with applications...

We study a distributionally robust version of the classical capacitated facility location problem with a distributional ambiguity set defined as a Wasserst...

In this paper, we consider the problem of equal risk pricing and hedging in which the fair price of an option is the price that exposes both sides of the con...
