We present a new primal-dual algorithm for computing the value of the Lagrangian dual of a stochastic mixed-integer program (SMIP) formed by relaxing its nonanticipativity constraints. This dual is widely used in decomposition methods for…

This paper introduces two decomposition-based methods for two-block mixed-integer linear programs (MILPs), which aim to take advantage of separable structures of the original problem by solving a sequence of lower-dimensional MILPs. The…

Power system restoration following blackouts must ensure frequency stability throughout the recovery process. This paper proposes a frequency-constrained mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) framework for black-start restoration planning…

The strengthening of linear relaxations and bounds of mixed integer linear programs has been an active research topic for decades. Enumeration-based methods for integer programming like linear programming-based branch-and-bound exploit…

Neural networks have been applied to the physical layer of wireless communication systems to solve complex problems. In millimeter wave (mmWave) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, hybrid precoding has been considered as…

We consider multistage stochastic optimization problems involving multiple units. Each unit is a (small) control system. Static constraints couple units at each stage. We present a mix of spatial and temporal decompositions to tackle such…

The Partitioning Min-Max Weighted Matching (PMMWM) problem is an NP-hard problem that combines the problem of partitioning a group of vertices of a bipartite graph into disjoint subsets with limited size and the classical Min-Max Weighted…

Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms are standard approaches to solve imaging inverse problems and quantify estimation uncertainties, a key requirement in absence of ground-truth data. To improve estimation quality, Plug-and-Play MCMC…

Multiscale mixed methods based on non-overlapping domain decompositions can efficiently handle the solution of significant subsurface flow problems in very heterogeneous formations of interest to the industry, especially when implemented on…

Scheduling multiple products with limited resources and varying demands remain a critical challenge for many industries. This work presents mixed integer programs (MIPs) that solve the Economic Lot Sizing Problem (ELSP) and other Dynamic…

Lifting is a crucial technique in mixed integer programming (MIP) for generating strong valid inequalities, which serve as cutting planes to improve the branch-and-cut algorithm. We first propose an exact sequential lifting algorithm for…

We consider a noisy Slepian-Wolf problem where two correlated sources are separately encoded (using codes of fixed rate) and transmitted over two independent binary memoryless symmetric channels. The capacity of each channel is…

Lennard-Jones clusters, while an easy system, have a significant number of non equivalent configurations that increases rapidly with the number of atoms in the cluster. Here, we aim at determining the cluster partition function; we use the…

This paper presents two new approaches to decomposing and solving large Markov decision problems (MDPs), a partial decoupling method and a complete decoupling method. In these approaches, a large, stochastic decision problem is divided into…

Solving large-scale multistage stochastic programming (MSP) problems poses a significant challenge as commonly used stagewise decomposition algorithms, including stochastic dual dynamic programming (SDDP), face growing time complexity as…

Many power systems operation and planning computations (e.g., transmission and generation switching and placement) solve a mixed-integer nonlinear problem (MINLP) with binary variables representing the decision to connect devices to the…
