A Multilevel Scheduling Framework for Distributed Time-domain Large-area Sky Survey Telescope Array
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Telescope arrays are receiving increasing attention due to their promise of higher resource utilization, greater sky survey area, and higher frequency of full space-time monitoring than single telescopes.

Solving the Traveling Telescope Problem with Mixed-integer Linear Programming
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 The size and complexity of modern astronomical surveys has grown to the point where, in many cases, traditional human scheduling of observations are tedious at best and impractical at worst.

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 We investigate the uncertainties of fitted X-ray model parameters and fluxes for relatively faint Chandra ACIS-I source spectra. Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are employed to construct a large set of 150,000 fake X-ray spectra in the low photon count ...

Fast Globally Optimal Catalog Matching using MIQCP
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We propose a novel exact method to solve the probabilistic catalog matching problem faster than previously possible. Our new approach uses mixed integer programming and introduces quadratic constraints to shrink the problem by multiple orders of ...
