Panos Pardalos, University of Florida, Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, 303 Weil Hall, P.O. Box 116595, Gainesville, Florida, USA, 32611-6595 In recent years operations research has been widely used in many problems in medicine. These problems are inherently complex and very difficult to solve. In this talk we are going to focus on global optimization techniques (multi-quadratic programming) in computational neurosciences and biclustering (nonlinear fractional optimization) based data mining approaches in cancer research. In addition, several other applications will be briefly discussed. |
