A novel dual‐decomposition method for non‐convex two‐stage stochastic mixed‐integer quadratically constrained quadratic problems

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We propose the novel p‐branch‐and‐bound method for solving two‐stage stochastic programming problems whose deterministic equivalents are represented by non‐convex mixed‐integer quadratically constrained quadratic programming (MIQCQP) models. The precision of the solution generated by the p‐branch‐and‐bound method can be arbitrarily adjusted by

Markov Determinantal Point Process for Dynamic Random Sets

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Law of Determinantal Point Process (LDPP) is a flexible parametric family of distributions over random sets defined on a finite state space, or equivalently over multivariate binary variables. The aim of this paper is to introduce Markov processes of random sets within the LDPP framework. We show that, when the pairwise distribution of two

Continuous black-box optimization with an Ising machine and random subspace coding

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2022
A black-box optimization algorithm such as Bayesian optimization finds the extremum of an unknown function by alternating the inference of the underlying function and optimization of an acquisition function.

Understanding Desired Greater Collaboration Ties: Tie‐Strengthening and Bypassing Approaches for Managing Formal Workflow Network Dependencies

open access: yesPersonnel Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Whereas organizational network studies infer employees’ agentic desires through observed network changes, we capture desires to collaborate more closely with co‐workers directly through a survey. We argue that formal structures create workflow dependencies between employees as they gather others’ inputs to complete their tasks, and individuals

Quantum Annealing in the NISQ Era: Railway Conflict Management

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
We are in the noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices’ era, in which quantum hardware has become available for application in real-world problems. However, demonstrations of the usefulness of such NISQ devices are still rare.

Mapping Quantum Computing Techniques for NP‐Hard Problems in Operations Management and Operations Research

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Quantum computing techniques such as Quantum Annealing and Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization are effectively solving NP‐hard problems in operations management and research, particularly in logistics, manufacturing, and finance. This study maps these applications to present a framework for future adoption across industries. ABSTRACT This study

Stabilizing Inference in Dirichlet Regression via Ridge‐Penalized Model

open access: yesStatistical Analysis and Data Mining: An ASA Data Science Journal, Volume 19, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT We propose a penalized Dirichlet regression framework for modeling compositional data, using a softmax link to ensure that the mean vector lies on the simplex and to avoid log‐ratio transformations or zero replacement. The model is formulated in a GLM‐like setting and incorporates an ℓ2$$ {\mathrm{\ell}}_2 $$ (ridge) penalty on the regression ...

Left-deep join order selection with higher-order unconstrained binary optimization on quantum computers

open access: yesFrontiers in Computer Science
Join order optimization is among the most crucial query optimization problems, and its central position is also evident in the new research field where quantum computing is applied to database optimization and data management.
