Two-stage capacity optimization approach of multi-energy system considering its optimal operation [PDF]

open access: yesEnergy and AI, 2020
With the depletion of fossil fuel and climate change, multi-energy systems have attracted widespread attention in buildings. Multi-energy systems, fuelled by renewable energy, including solar and biomass energy, are gaining increasing adoption in ...

A Scalable Two Stage Approach to Computing Optimal Decision Sets

open access: yesProceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2021
Machine learning (ML) is ubiquitous in modern life. Since it is being deployed in technologies that affect our privacy and safety, it is often crucial to understand the reasoning behind its decisions, warranting the need for explainable AI. Rule-based models, such as decision trees, decision lists, and decision sets, are conventionally deemed to be the

A hybrid combinatorial approach to a two-stage stochastic portfolio optimization model with uncertain asset prices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Portfolio optimization is one of the most important problems in the finance field. The traditional Markowitz mean-variance model is often unrealistic since it relies on the perfect market information.

Sustainable two stage supply chain management: A quadratic optimization approach with a quadratic constraint

open access: yesEURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2022
Designing a supply chain to comply with environmental policy requires awareness of how work and/or production methods impact the environment and what needs to be done to reduce those environmental impacts and make the company more sustainable.

Dual Approach for Two-Stage Robust Nonlinear Optimization.

open access: yesOperations Research, 2023
Adjustable robust minimization problems where the objective or constraints depend in a convex way on the adjustable variables are generally difficult to solve. In this paper, we reformulate the original adjustable robust nonlinear problem with a polyhedral uncertainty set into an equivalent adjustable robust linear problem, for which all existing ...

Nonlinear Optimization-Based Robust Control Approach for a Two-Stage Anaerobic Digestion Process

open access: yesJournal of Chemistry, 2022
A two-stage anaerobic digestion (AD) process has been applied to improve the efficiency of methane production from various organic materials. However, the performance of traditional process controllers may be limited by differences in the rate of ...

TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION UNDER EMBODIMENT: A TWO-STAGE OPTIMAL CONTROL APPROACH [PDF]

open access: yesMacroeconomic Dynamics, 2004
We use two-stage optimal control techniques to solve some adoption problems under embodied technical change. We first solve a benchmark problem without learning behavior. At the date of switching, the consumption level is shown to drop, as the relative price of capital goes down (obsolescence).

Decomposition-Based Approaches for a Class of Two-Stage Robust Binary Optimization Problems [PDF]

open access: yesINFORMS Journal on Computing, 2022
In this paper, we study a class of two-stage robust binary optimization problems with objective uncertainty, where recourse decisions are restricted to be mixed-binary. For these problems, we present a deterministic equivalent formulation through the convexification of the recourse-feasible region.
