The empirical Receiver Operating Characteritic (ROC) curve can be used to evaluate the properties of a diagnostic test from the distribution of a variable on...

Pressure on ancillary reserves in power systems has significantly mounted due to the recent generalized increase of the fraction of (highly fluctuating) wi...

Currently, power system operations planning practices are undergoing various transformations in an attempt to integrate efficiently significant amounts of su...

The types of constraints encountered in black-box and simulation-based optimization problems differ significantly from those treated in nonlinear programmin...

In biomedical research there is a growing interest in the use of hierarchical Poisson regression models. Although sample size calculations for testing pa...

We introduce an efficient approach to evaluate counterparty risk and we compute the Credit Valuation Adjustement for derivatives having early exercise feat...

Given a complete directed graph \(G\) with weights on the vertices and on the arcs, a \(\theta\)-improper \(k\)-coloring is an assignment of at most `...

Nowadays, tremendous data are continuously gathering from the smart card in public transport domain. Such data, conveying two viable distinct information, ca...

The widespread proliferation of Internet and wireless applications has produced a significant increase of ICT energy footprint. As a response, in the last fi...

It is well known that the mixed linear complementarity problem can be used to model the equilibrium in energy markets as well as a host of other engineering ...

We consider the class of stochastic games played over finite event trees, that is, games where the random process is an act of nature and is not influenced b...

We study the function returning the sum of the k components of largest magnitude of a vector. We show that if a nonnegative vector x is such that its Eu...

The fundamental limits of remote estimation of Markov processes under communication constraints are presented. The remote estimation system consists of a sen...

The first part of this two-part paper developed the framework for characterizing the feasibility regions of power systems in the demand space. This character...

This two-part paper presents a framework for the characterization and minimal representation of the feasibility regions of power systems in the demand space....

An induced matching M in a graph G is dominating if every edge not in M shares exactly one vertex with an edge in M. The **dominating induced matchin...

This paper presents a structured approach to model logical constraints (expressions that contain propositions and logical operators) in a linear program usin...

A new algorithm for the optimal stope design problem is proposed. It is based on a previous methodology developed by Bai et al. (2013a) where a cylindrical ...

This paper provides an overview of the role, past, present and future, of demand-side management and demand-side response in electric grids. We address the f...

We propose a primal algorithm for the Set Partitioning Problem based on the Integral Simplex Using Decomposition of Zaghrouti et al. (2014). We present the a...
