Bilevel optimisation represents a class of hierarchical decision-making processes where two interrelated optimisation problems are solved sequentially. In such problems, the upper-level (or leader) ...

Fuzzy optimisation has emerged as a vital framework for addressing decision-making and extremum problems where data ambiguity and uncertainty preclude the direct application of classical optimisation ...

Scientists have demonstrated a breakthrough application of neutral-atom quantum processors to solve problems of practical use. A collaboration between Harvard University with scientists at QuEra ...

Over the course of my 25-year career in the mathematical optimization software industry, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve been asked this question: “Can you tell me what mathematical ...

There are, generally speaking, two types of people in the mathematical optimization software field: • Optimization solver developers: The technical experts who devise and implement the algorithms that ...

HSBC has begun collaborating with Terra Quantum to investigate using hybrid quantum applications to tackle optimisation challenges. One example of such an issue is collateral optimisation, which is ...

where \(\mathsf{G}(\cdot)\) is some convex operator and \(\mathcal{F}\) is as set of feasible input distributions. Examples of such an optimization problem include finding capacity in information ...

A framework based on advanced AI techniques can solve complex, computationally intensive problems faster and in a more more scalable way than state-of-the-art methods, according to a new study. A ...

BOZEMAN, Mont.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FICO (NYSE: FICO): Global analytics software leader FICO today announced that the 2024 FICO® Xpress Best Paper Award went to a team that developed an algorithm for ...

We were visiting a hedge fund some years back when we had our first taste of the problem with mean-variance optimization—the tool advisors use to balance risk and reward in client portfolios. We ...

DB Netz, a subsidiary of German railway company Deutsche Bahn, is working in partnership with Cambridge Quantum to explore how quantum computers can improve the rescheduling of rail traffic. The ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...
