Large-Scale Optimization using Reinforcement Learning, Dynamic Programming, and Column Generation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)One of the most enduring challenges in large-scale optimization is determining how to push the boundaries of scalability without compromising on performance or rigor. For decades, the exponential advances in computational ... -
Mechanisms of phage detection by bacterial innate immune proteins
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-02)Bacteria are under constant threat from their viral predators, known as bacteriophages (or phages). As a result, bacteria have evolved diverse immune mechanisms to protect themselves from phage infection, such as restriction ... -
New Theory and New Practical Methods for Solving Large-Scale Linear and Conic Optimization
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)In the last several years there has been a dramatic shift in the way many large-scale linear programs (LPs) are solved in practice, with classic methods (simplex method and interior-point methods) being replaced by the ...
