Mathematical optimization in classification and regression trees. [PDF]
AbstractClassification and regression trees, as well as their variants, are off-the-shelf methods in Machine Learning. In this paper, we review recent contributions within the Continuous Optimization and the Mixed-Integer Linear Optimization paradigms to develop novel formulations in this research area.

Supervised classification and mathematical optimization [PDF]
Data Mining techniques often ask for the resolution of optimization problems. Supervised Classification, and, in particular, Support Vector Machines, can be seen as a paradigmatic instance. In this paper, some links between Mathematical Optimization methods and Supervised Classification are emphasized.

Inverse procedure for measuring piezoelectric material parameters using a single multi-electrode sample [PDF]
An inverse measurement procedure for the determination of a full set of piezoelectric material parameters using a single sample is presented. The basis for the measurement procedure is a measurement of the frequency-dependent impedance of the sample.

Mathematical Optimization of Treatment Schedules [PDF]
In the past decades mathematical optimization has found its way into radiation therapy and has made profound practice changing impact. Today, virtually all advanced treatment delivery methods, such as IMRT, VMAT, tomotherapy, LDR/HDR brachytherapy, proton therapy, are based on some form of optimization approach that changes the treatment variables ...
