Learning to Remove Cuts in Integer Linear Programming

Volkan Cevher, Grigorios Chrysos, Efstratios Panteleimon Skoulakis

Cutting plane methods are a fundamental approach for solving integer linear programs (ILPs). In each iteration of such methods, additional linear constraints (cuts) are introduced to the constraint set with the aim of excluding the previous fractional opti ...

Safe Zeroth-Order Convex Optimization Using Quadratic Local Approximations

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Maryam Kamgarpour, Yuning Jiang, Baiwei Guo

We address black-box convex optimization problems, where the objective and constraint functions are not explicitly known but can be sampled within the feasible set. The challenge is thus to generate a sequence of feasible points converging towards an optim ...

Computational Conceptual Design – Typological Exploration Of Spatial Truss Systems Through Optimization

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jonas Warmuth, Pierluigi D'Acunto

Exploring a wide range of relevant design options from the outset is crucial for every sound conceptual design process. Optimization techniques are generally employed to generate well-performing structural design options. However, focusing only on performa ...

Optimization Over Banach Spaces: A Unified View on Supervised Learning and Inverse Problems

Shayan Aziznejad

In this thesis, we reveal that supervised learning and inverse problems share similar mathematical foundations. Consequently, we are able to present a unified variational view of these tasks that we formulate as optimization problems posed over infinite-di ...

Large-scale traffic signal control and multimodal network design

Dimitrios Tsitsokas

Traffic congestion constitutes one of the most frequent, yet challenging, problems to address in the urban space. Caused by the concentration of population, whose mobility needs surpass the serving capacity of urban networks, congestion cannot be resolved ...

Neural System Level Synthesis: Learning over All Stabilizing Policies for Nonlinear Systems

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Luca Furieri, Clara Lucía Galimberti

We address the problem of designing stabilizing control policies for nonlinear systems in discrete-time, while minimizing an arbitrary cost function. When the system is linear and the cost is convex, the System Level Synthesis (SLS) approach offers an effe ...

Variational Methods For Continuous-Domain Inverse Problems: the Quest for the Sparsest Solution

Thomas Jean Debarre

The goal of this thesis is to study continuous-domain inverse problems for the reconstruction of sparse signals and to develop efficient algorithms to solve such problems computationally. The task is to recover a signal of interest as a continuous function ...

Real-time Control of Battery Energy Storage Systems to Provide Ancillary Services Considering Voltage-Dependent Capability of DC-AC Converters

Mario Paolone, Sidi-Rachid Cherkaoui, Antonio Zecchino, Zhao Yuan

Frequency response and voltage support are vital ancillary services for power grids. In this paper, we design and experimentally validate a real-time control framework for battery energy storage systems (BESSs) to provide ancillary services to power grids. ...

Computational tool for stock-constrained design of structures

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jonas Warmuth, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting

Designing structures from reused elements is becoming an increasingly important design task for structural engineers as it has potential to significantly reduce adverse environmental impacts of building structures. To allow for a broad application of this ...

Vessel scheduling with pilotage and tugging considerations

Michel Bierlaire

This paper considers vessel scheduling with pilotage and tugging constraints in berthing operations with channel restrictions at seaports. To our knowledge, pilotage and tugging requirements have not been simultaneously considered in the literature. This w ...
