The Chance-Constrained Parallel Machine Scheduling Problem (CC-PMSP) assigns jobs with uncertain processing times to machines, ensuring that each machine's availability constraints are met with a certain probability. We present a…

We present FilterDDP, a differential dynamic programming algorithm for solving discrete-time, optimal control problems (OCPs) with nonlinear equality constraints. Unlike prior methods based on merit functions or the augmented Lagrangian…

We present a solution to real-world train scheduling problems, involving routing, scheduling, and optimization, based on Answer Set Programming (ASP). To this end, we pursue a hybrid approach that extends ASP with difference constraints to…

Semidefinite programs (SDP) are one of the most versatile frameworks in numerical optimization, serving as generalizations of many conic programs and as relaxations of NP-hard combinatorial problems. Their main drawback is their…

In the line-based dial-a-ride problem (liDARP), vehicles operate along a predefined bus line, with the possibility of skipping stations and turning when empty. Motivated by the practical observation that tight passenger time windows often…

This paper presents a constrained adaptive dynamic programming (CADP) algorithm to solve general nonlinear nonaffine optimal control problems with known dynamics. Unlike previous ADP algorithms, it can directly deal with problems with state…

This paper reviews the connections between Graphplan's planning-graph and the dynamic constraint satisfaction problem and motivates the need for adapting CSP search techniques to the Graphplan algorithm. It then describes how explanation…

Sensor and actuator selection problems (SASP) are some of the core problems in dynamic systems design and control. These problems correspond to determining the optimal selection of sensors (measurements) or actuators (control nodes) such…

This paper aims to provide a Dynamic Programming (DP) approach to solve the Mission-Wide Chance-Constrained Optimal Control Problems (MWCC-OCP). The mission-wide chance constraint guarantees that the probability that the entire state…

Signal Temporal Logic (STL) has gained popularity in recent years as a specification language for cyber-physical systems, especially in robotics. Beyond being expressive and easy to understand, STL is appealing because the synthesis…

Deep learning is a popular machine learning technique and has been applied to many real-world problems. However, training a deep neural network is very time-consuming, especially on big data. It has become difficult for a single machine to…

We introduce an extension of Stochastic Dual Dynamic Programming (SDDP) to solve stochastic convex dynamic programming equations. This extension applies when some or all primal and dual subproblems to be solved along the forward and…

Autonomous agents are limited in their ability to observe the world state. Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) formally model the problem of planning under world state uncertainty, but POMDPs with continuous actions and…

This paper addresses the single-item single-stocking location non-stationary stochastic lot-sizing problem under a reorder point -- order quantity control strategy. The reorder points and order quantities are chosen at the beginning of the…

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…

Domain-Independent Dynamic Programming (DIDP) is a state-space search paradigm based on dynamic programming for combinatorial optimization. In its current implementation, DIDP guides the search using user-defined dual bounds. Reinforcement…

In this paper, we investigate the Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (RCPSP) with time-of-use energy tariffs (TOU) and machine states, a variant of RCPSP for production scheduling where energy price is part of the criteria and…
