Determining the least expensive path for a new subway line underneath a metropolis like New York City is a colossal planning challenge—involving thousands of potential routes through hundreds of city ...

Earlier this month, 36 sharp-witted high school students from around the globe stepped foot on the warm and breezy campus of Stanford University. Out of more than 4,000 students from more than 2,000 ...

Abstract: For the conjugate gradient method to solve the unconstrained optimization problem, given a new interval method to obtain the direction parameters, and a new conjugate gradient algorithm is ...

The global optimization of integer and mixed integer non-linear problems has a lot of applications in engineering. In this paper a heuristic algorithm is developed using line-up competition and ...

In this paper, we propose an algorithm for solving inequality constrained mini-max optimization problem. In this algorithm, an active set strategy is used together with multiplier method to convert ...

The HVAC system of public buildings, as a thermostatically controlled load, accounting for a relatively significant proportion of building energy consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

This study introduced an efficient method for solving non-linear equations. Our approach enhances the traditional spectral conjugate gradient parameter, resulting in significant improvements in the ...
