Abstract: With the rapid development of science and technology, nonlinear equations and optimal control problems play an important role in a wide range of fields. However, in the current research, the ...

Abstract: In some optimal control problems, complex relationships between states and inputs cannot be easily represented using continuous constraints, necessitating the use of discrete logic instead.

Optimization problems often involve situations in which the user's goal is to minimize and/or maximize not a single objective function, but several, usually conflicting, functions simultaneously. Such ...

Long sales cycles, low conversion volume, and multi-stage purchase journeys make measurement and attribution harder, creating real obstacles to campaign optimization. For B2Bs and brands selling ...

We study some nonlinear optimal control problems under state constraint. We construct extremal flows by differential-algebraic equations to solve an optimal control problem subject to mixed ...

In today’s fast-paced, ever-evolving world, the complexity of challenges faced in both business and everyday life requires a shift in how we approach problem solving. Traditional linear thinking, ...

Linear solvers are major computational bottlenecks in a wide range of decision support and optimization computations. The challenges become even more pronounced on heterogeneous hardware, where ...
