In this study, we consider two classes of multicriteria two-stage stochastic programs in finite probability spaces with multivariate risk constraints. The first-stage problem features a multivariate stochastic benchmarking constraint based…

This paper addresses the problem of reliably and efficiently solving broad classes of long-horizon stochastic path planning problems. Starting with a vanilla RL formulation with a stochastic dynamics simulator and an occupancy matrix of the…

Nowadays, algorithms with fast convergence, small memory footprints, and low per-iteration complexity are particularly favorable for artificial intelligence applications. In this paper, we propose a doubly stochastic algorithm with a novel…

We present new models of optimization-based task and motion planning (TAMP) for robotic pick-and-place (P&P), which plan action sequences and motion trajectory with low computational costs. We improved an existing state-of-the-art TAMP…

Previous studies on stochastic primal-dual algorithms for solving min-max problems with faster convergence heavily rely on the bilinear structure of the problem, which restricts their applicability to a narrowed range of problems. The main…

We give an overview of new and existing cut- and flow-based ILP formulations for the two-stage stochastic Steiner tree problem and compare the strength of the LP relaxations.

In this work, we propose a two-stage approach to strengthen piecewise McCormick relaxations for mixed-integer nonlinear programs (MINLP) with multi-linear terms. In the first stage, we exploit Constraint Programing (CP) techniques to…

In networks, there are often more than one source of capacity. The capacities can be permanently or temporarily owned by the decision maker. Depending on the nature of sources, we identify the permanent capacity, spot market capacity and…

Both bilevel and robust optimization are established fields of mathematical optimization and operations research. However, only until recently, the similarities in their mathematical structure has neither been studied theoretically nor…

Adaptive Partition-based Methods (APM) are numerical methods to solve two-stage stochastic linear problems (2SLP). The core idea is to iteratively construct an adapted partition of the space of alea in order to aggregate scenarios while…

We present a Mixed Integer Linear Program (MILP) approach in order to model the nonlinear problem of minimizing the tire noise. We first take more industrial constraints into account than in a former work of the authors. Then, we associate…

We introduce a two-level trust-region method (TLTR) for solving unconstrained nonlinear optimization problems. Our method uses a composite iteration step, which is based on two distinct search directions. The first search direction is…

In this paper, we study a fixed-confidence, fixed-tolerance formulation of a class of stochastic bi-level optimization problems, where the upper-level problem selects from a finite set of systems based on a performance metric, and the…

Linear programming (LP) is an extremely useful tool which has been successfully applied to solve various problems in a wide range of areas, including operations research, engineering, economics, or even more abstract mathematical areas such…

We propose a machine learning approach for quickly solving Mixed Integer Programs (MIP) by learning to prioritize a set of decision variables, which we call pseudo-backdoors, for branching that results in faster solution times.…

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…

Mixed-integer nonlinear programmings (MINLPs) are powerful formulation tools for task planning. However, it suffers from long solving time especially for large scale problems. In this work, we first formulate the task planning problem for…

Signal Temporal Logic (STL) provides a convenient way of encoding complex control objectives for robotic and cyber-physical systems. The state-of-the-art in trajectory synthesis for STL is based on Mixed-Integer Convex Programming (MICP).…
