Abstract: Sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithms are widely recognized to be among the most successful algorithms for general constrained optimization. This paper attempts to develop an SQP ...

Quadratically constrained quadratic programming (QCQP) problems appear in a wide range of engineering fields, including computer science, communication engineering, and finance. A key difficulty in ...

Abstract: This paper focuses on the problem of formation control (FC) for unknown nonlinear iterative multi-agent systems (IMASs) with input saturation constraints ...

Done right, loyalty programs are a uniquely effective way to improve customer retention. Research from Accenture found that loyalty program members drive between 12 and 18% revenue growth each year.

This repository implements dynamic programming (DP) heuristics for solving the Quadratic Knapsack Problem (QKP). The QKP is a variant of the classical knapsack problem where the profit matrix includes ...

Gentoo found a problem when building with LTO + -Werror=odr, see here for the bug. I have reproduced this with 0.31.0 and despite the fact that PyPerf is "only" an example, I am reporting it since it ...

The problem of approximation to a given function, or of fitting a given set of data, where the approximating function is required to have certain of its derivatives of specified sign over the whole ...

If you’ve ever searched for information online about the Toyota Production System, you've probably seen various house-shaped graphics. But even though we all know what a house is, understanding what ...

Clever marketing can’t make up for a poorly designed loyalty program. But it can light a match under a good one. So, when you’ve determined your rewards structure, defined your key metrics and ...
