My graduate studies included learning about constraint-based optimization algorithms (such as linear programming) and ...

Abstract: We propose a linear programming method that is based on active-set changes and proximal-point iterations. The method solves a sequence of least-distance problems using a warm-started ...

Standard computer implementations of Dantzig's simplex method for linear programming are based upon forming the inverse of the basic matrix and updating the inverse ...

If you saw a massive ship docked at your local harbor, you might not be able to immediately discern exactly what type of ship it is at a glance. Specifically, is it an ocean liner or a cruise ship?
