Several recent publications report advances in training optimal decision trees (ODT) using mixed-integer programs (MIP), due to algorithmic advances in integer programming and a growing interest in addressing the inherent suboptimality of…

In this paper, we study the strength of aggregation cuts for sign-pattern integer programs (IPs). Sign-pattern IPs are a generalization of packing IPs and are of the form $\{x\in \mathbb{Z}^n_+\ | \ Ax\le b\}$ where for a given column $j$,…

Recently, hybrid metaheuristics have become a trend in operations research. A successful example combines the Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedures (GRASP) and data mining techniques, where frequent patterns found in high-quality…

In this paper we introduce a new problem in the field of production planning which we call the Production Leveling Problem. The task is to assign orders to production periods such that the load in each period and on each production resource…

Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) is widely used in fields such as scheduling, logistics, and planning. Enhancing the performance of MILP solvers, particularly learning-based solvers, requires substantial amounts of high-quality data.…

Global minimum cut is a fundamental combinatorial optimization problem with wide-ranging applications. Often in practice, these problems are solved repeatedly on families of similar or related instances. However, the de facto algorithmic…

The Multi-Objective Mixed-Integer Programming (MOMIP) problem is one of the most challenging. To derive its Pareto optimal solutions one can use the well-known Chebyshev scalarization and Mixed-Integer Programming (MIP) solvers. However,…

Influence diagrams represent decision-making problems with interdependencies between random events, decisions, and consequences. Traditionally, they have been solved using algorithms that determine the expected utility-maximizing decision…

For clustering of an undirected graph, this paper presents an exact algorithm for the maximization of modularity density, a more complicated criterion to overcome drawbacks of the well-known modularity. The problem can be interpreted as the…

Activities involving transformation of raw materials, various resources and components into final products and also delivering it to the end customer incur a significant cost during the selection of location of a warehouse that can be…

The cutting stock problem with binary patterns (0-1 CSP) is a variant of CSP that usually appears as a relaxation of 2D and 3D packing problems. We present an exact method, based on an arc-flow formulation with side constraints, for solving…

In this paper, we study the assortment optimization problem under the mixed-logit customer choice model. While assortment optimization has been a major topic in revenue management for decades, the mixed-logit model is considered one of the…

Finite mixture models are frequently used to uncover latent structures in high-dimensional datasets (e.g.\ identifying clusters of patients in electronic health records). The inference of such structures can be performed in a Bayesian…

We present a global optimization approach for solving the maximum a-posteriori (MAP) clustering problem under the Gaussian mixture model.Our approach can accommodate side constraints and it preserves the combinatorial structure of the MAP…

Cutting planes (cuts) are important for solving mixed-integer linear programs (MILPs), which formulate a wide range of important real-world applications. Cut selection -- which aims to select a proper subset of the candidate cuts to improve…

Logic-Based Benders Decomposition (LBBD) and its Branch-and-Cut variant, namely Branch-and-Check, enjoy an extensive applicability on a broad variety of problems, including scheduling. Although LBBD offers problem-specific cuts to impose…

We present the first non-trivial algorithm for the all-pairs minimum cut problem in the cut-query model. Given cut-query access to an unweighted graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices, our randomized algorithm constructs a Gomory-Hu tree of $G$,…

We introduce a stochastic version of the cutting-plane method for a large class of data-driven Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Optimization (MINLO) problems. We show that under very weak assumptions the stochastic algorithm is able to converge to…

Hybrid model predictive control with both continuous and discrete variables is widely applicable to robotic control tasks, especially those involving contact with the environment. Due to the combinatorial complexity, the solving speed of…

Model reduction, which aims to learn a simpler model of the original mixed integer linear programming (MILP), can solve large-scale MILP problems much faster. Most existing model reduction methods are based on variable reduction, which…
