Numerical Optimization Methods in Economics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Optimization problems are ubiquitous in economics. Many of these problems are sufficiently complex that they cannot be solved analytically. Instead economists need to resort to numerical methods. This article presents the most commonly used methods for both unconstrained and constrained optimization problems in economics; it emphasizes the solid ...

Fokker–Planck Analysis of Superresolution Microscopy Images

open access: yesMathematical and Computational Applications, 2023
A method for the analysis of super-resolution microscopy images is presented. This method is based on the analysis of stochastic trajectories of particles moving on the membrane of a cell with the assumption that this motion is determined by the ...

Fast iterative solvers for PDE-constrained optimization problems

open access: yes, 2013
In this thesis, we develop preconditioned iterative methods for the solution of matrix systems arising from PDE-constrained optimization problems. In order to do this, we exploit saddle point theory, as this is the form of the matrix systems we wish to ...
