Abstract: In many areas of knowledge, situations in which we have to model and solve optimization problems are recurrent. Among the mathematical theories that support the solution of such problems, ...

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...

Abstract: Since its first use by Euler on the problem of the seven bridges of Königsberg, graph theory has shown excellent abilities in solving and unveiling the properties of multiple discrete ...

flacco is a collection of features for Explorative Landscape Analysis (ELA) of single-objective, continuous (Black-Box-)Optimization Problems. It allows the user to quantify characteristics of an ...

What is SEO? At its core, the meaning of search engine optimization (SEO) is increasing your website’s visibility in the organic search results of major search engines. To get that visibility, you ...

Next to the primary optimization objectives, scientific optimization problems often contain a series of subordinate objectives, which can be expressed as preferences over either the outputs of an ...

Uncertainties are widespread in the optimization of process systems, such as uncertainties in process technologies, prices, and customer demands. In this paper, we review the basic concepts and recent ...
