OR Seminar: Derivative-Free Nonconvex Stochastic Optimization with Application to an Energy Storage Problem
Bahen Centre 40 St George St, Toronto, Ontario, CanadaSpeaker: Saeed Ghadimi, Princeton University Abstract In this talk, we propose and analyze derivative-free stochastic approximation algorithms for nonconvex optimization. We first propose generalization of the conditional gradient algorithm achieving a similar rate to the standard stochastic gradient algorithm (SGD) using only noisy function evaluations (zeroth-order information). For the high-dimensional setting, we explore the advantage […]
OR Seminar: Dynamic multistage scheduling for patient-centered care plans
Bahen Centre 40 St George St, Toronto, Ontario, CanadaSpeaker: Adam Diamand Abstract: We investigate the scheduling practices of multistage outpatient health programs that offer care plans customized to the needs of their patients. We formulate the scheduling problem as a Markov decision process (MDP) where patients can reschedule their appointment, may fail to show up, and may even become ineligible. The MDP has […]
