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 ...

Research and investment in artificial intelligence (AI) have rapidly expanded over the past decade. The International Data Corporation predicts that global spending on cognitive and AI systems will ...

Supply chains consist of imperfect humans struggling to make perfect decisions. In the end, though, it all comes down to a game of numbers. That, at least, is the theory behind mathematical ...

This guide provides more information on the potential implications of a new algorithm called Q* (Qstar) developed by OpenAI, which may represent a significant advancement in artificial intelligence ...

A thorough understanding of Linear Algebra and Vector Calculus, and strong familiarity with the Python programming language (e.g., basic data manipulation libraries, how to construct functions and ...

Real-world optimization problems often require an external “modeling engine” that computes fitnesses or data that are then input to an objective function. These programs often have much longer ...

Logistical chaos is not a new phenomenon in the supply-chain world, but the scale of upheaval caused by COVID-19 is something that stakeholders have never seen before: 94% of Fortune 1000 companies ...

In Part 1 of this series on optimization and recovery, we considered two limitations of optimization processes and the light they shed on pseudo-recovery. Let’s now think more about what the ...

Adaptive algorithms have immensely advanced, becoming integral for innovation across multiple industries. These intelligent systems adjust content and strategies to improve the experiences of users by ...
