Regularized Diffusion Adaptation via Conjugate Smoothing

Ali H. Sayed, Stefan Vlaski

The purpose of this article is to develop and study a decentralized strategy for Pareto optimization of an aggregate cost consisting of regularized risks. Each risk is modeled as the expectation of some loss function with unknown probability distribution, ...

Frontiers of (Pareto) Optimal and Sustainable Water Management for Hydropower and Ecology

David Andrew Barry, Paolo Perona, Amin Niayifar, Pierre Razurel

River regulation alters the natural flow regime of streams with consequent impacts on terrestrial and aquatic habitats of the riparian zone. The severity of such impacts can be modulated by changing the redistribution rules at water intakes and reservoirs. ...

COVID-19: data-driven dynamic asset allocation in times of pandemic

Anna Timonina-Farkas

The COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated the importance and value of multi-period asset allocation strategies responding to rapid changes in market behavior. In this article, we formulate and solve a multi-stage stochastic optimization problem, choosing the ...

Performance comparison of reduced models for leak detection in water distribution networks

Ian Smith, Gaudenz Moser, Stephanie Ann German

This paper presents a methodology for comparing the performance of model-reduction strategies to be used with a diagnostic methodology for leak detection in water distribution networks. The goal is to find reduction strategies that are suitable for error-d ...

Decision support for ranking Pareto optimal process designs under uncertain market conditions

François Maréchal, Laurence Tock

Considering the uncertainty of economic conditions, multi-objective optimisation can be favoured to single-objective optimisation for process design. However, from the Pareto sets generated by multi- objective optimisation it is not obvious to identify the ...

Holistic design guidelines for solar hydrogen production by photo-electrochemical routes

Sophia Haussener, Saurabh Yuvraj Tembhurne, Mikaël Dumortier

Device and system design choices for solar energy conversion and storage approaches require holistic design guidelines which simultaneously respect and optimize technical, economic, sustainability, and operating time constraints. We developed a simulation ...

Distributed Pareto Optimization via Diffusion Strategies

Ali H. Sayed

We consider solving multi-objective optimization problems in a distributed manner by a network of cooperating and learning agents. The problem is equivalent to optimizing a global cost that is the sum of individual components. The optimizers of the individ ...

Optimal energy conversion system design under uncertain parameters

François Maréchal

The aim of this project is to integrate uncertainty analysis in a thermo-economic optimization framework to be used as decision making support in the design of energy systems.Tree comprehensive thermo-economic models of fuel cells systems have been develop ...
