Identifying the underlying models in a set of data points contaminated by noise and outliers, leads to a highly complex multi-model fitting problem. This problem can be posed as a clustering problem by the projection of higher order…

In this paper, we consider the multiple probabilistic covering location problem (MPCLP), which attempts to open a fixed number of facilities to maximize the total covered customer demand under a joint probabilistic coverage setting. We…

This paper focuses on the generalized grouping problem in the context of cellular manufacturing systems (CMS), where parts may have more than one process route. A process route lists the machines corresponding to each part of the operation.…

Biclustering is an unsupervised data mining technique that aims to unveil patterns (biclusters) from gene expression data matrices. In the framework of this thesis, we propose new biclustering algorithms for microarray data. The latter is…

Solutions to math word problems (MWPs) with step-by-step explanations are valuable, especially in education, to help students better comprehend problem-solving strategies. Most existing approaches only focus on obtaining the final correct…

The necessary decarbonization efforts in energy sectors entail the integration of flexibility assets, as well as increased levels of uncertainty for the planning and operation of power systems. To cope with this in a cost-effective manner,…

This applied research article explores the application of Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) to address line-balancing challenges in the garment industry, focusing on optimizing production processes under multiple constraints. By…

Recent matrix completion based methods have not been able to properly model the Haplotype Assembly Problem (HAP) for noisy observations. To cope with such a case, in this letter we propose a new Minimum Error Correction (MEC) based matrix…

Cutting planes (cuts) are crucial for solving Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) problems. Advanced MILP solvers typically rely on manually designed heuristic algorithms for cut selection, which require much expert experience and…

In this paper we propose a new problem of finding the maximal bi-connected partitioning of a graph with a size constraint (MBCPG-SC). With the goal of finding approximate solutions for the MBCPG-SC, a heuristic method is developed based on…

In this paper, we describe a comprehensive algorithmic framework for solving mixed integer bilevel linear optimization problems (MIBLPs) using a generalized branch-and-cut approach. The framework presented merges features from existing…

This paper introduces a computationally efficient method that converges globally to B-stationary points of mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints (MPECs). B-stationarity is necessary for optimality and means that no feasible…

The maximum covering location problem (MCLP) is a key problem in facility location, with many applications and variants. One such variant is the dynamic (or multi-period) MCLP, which considers the installation of facilities across multiple…

In recent years dynamical modelling has been provided with a range of breakthrough methods to perform exact Bayesian inference. However it is often computationally unfeasible to apply exact statistical methodologies in the context of large…

Matched Field Processing (MFP) locates the underwater sources by matching the received data with the replica vectors, which could be regarded as a generalized beamformer. In this paper, the MFP method is combined with a recently developed…

We study the problem of transforming bipartite graphs into bicluster graphs. Abu-Khzam, Isenmann, and Merchad [IWOCA '25] introduced two variants of this problem. In both problems, the goal is to transform a bipartite graph into a bicluster…

We study the problem of instance segmentation in biological images with crowded and compact cells. We formulate this task as an integer program where variables correspond to cells and constraints enforce that cells do not overlap. To solve…

Cell segmentation is a critical step for quantitative single-cell analysis in microscopy images. Existing cell segmentation methods are often tailored to specific modalities or require manual interventions to specify hyper-parameters in…

We propose a Branch-and-Cut (B&C) method for solving general MAP-MRF inference problems. The core of our method is a very efficient bounding procedure, which combines scalable semidefinite programming (SDP) and a cutting-plane method for…

In image fusion tasks, the absence of real fused images as supervision signals poses significant challenges for supervised learning. Existing deep learning methods typically address this issue either by designing handcrafted priors or by…
