The rise of large language models (LLMs) has given rise to a class of prompt-based interactive systems where users primarily express their input in natural language. However, composing a prompt as a linear text string becomes unwieldy when…
I give a brief, non-technical, historical perspective on numerical analysis and optimization. I also touch on emerging trends and future challenges. This content is based on the short presentation that I made at the opening ceremony of…
This paper presents El0ps, a Python toolbox providing several utilities to handle L0-regularized problems related to applications in machine learning, statistics, and signal processing, among other fields. In contrast to existing toolboxes,…
Computation nowadays is becoming inherently concurrent, either because of characteristics of the hardware (with multicore processors becoming omnipresent) or due to the ubiquitous presence of distributed systems (incarnated in the…
This volume contains the proceedings of the Thirteenth Workshop on Quantitative Aspects of Programming Languages and Systems (QAPL 2015), held in London, UK, on 11 and 12 April, 2015. QAPL 2015 was a satellite event of the European Joint…
Optimization problems are pervasive across various sectors, from manufacturing and distribution to healthcare. However, most such problems are still solved heuristically by hand rather than optimally by state-of-the-art solvers, as the…
One the major challenges in undergraduate computing programs is the learning of object-oriented programming (OOP). This paradigm has a variety of concepts with an abstraction level usually high for most beginners, even the ones who already…
