Decisions are increasingly taken by both humans and machine learning models. However, machine learning models are currently trained for full automation -- they are not aware that some of the decisions may still be taken by humans. In this…

In this work we collect and compare to each other many different numerical methods for regularized regression problem and for the problem of projection on a hyperplane. Such problems arise, for example, as a subproblem of demand matrix…

Many inverse problems can be described by a PDE model with unknown parameters that need to be calibrated based on measurements related to its solution. This can be seen as a constrained minimization problem where one wishes to minimize the…
