We consider discrete stochastic optimization problems where the objective function can only be estimated by a simulation oracle; the oracle is defined only at the discrete points....
We study an iterative cutting-plane algorithm on an integer program, for minimizing the staffing costs of a multiskill call center subject to service-level requirements which are e...
This paper highlights a phenomenon that causes deductively learned knowledge to be harmful when used for problem solving. The problem occurs when deductive problem solvers encount...
Simultaneous recordings from populations of neurons in the inferior temporal visual cortex show that most of the information about which stimulus was shown is available in the num...
We consider the problem of obtaining “nice” quadrangulations of planar sets of points. For many applications “nice” means that the quadrilaterals obtained are convex if po...
