Branch-and-Price
Integer (linear) programs are a standard way of formalizing a vast array of optimization problems in industry, services, management, science, and technology....
BibTeX reference
The arithmetic-geometric index is a newly proposed degree-based graph invariant in mathematical chemistry. We give a sharp upper bound on the value of this ...
BibTeX reference
We consider the set of graphs that can be constructed from a one-vertex graph by repeatedly adding a clique or a stable set linked to all or none of the vert...
BibTeX reference
In this paper, we describe a branch-and-price algorithm for the personalized nurse scheduling problem. The variants that appear in the literature involve a ...

In July 2022, I received the EURO Gold medal at the 32nd EURO Conference held in Espoo, Finland. On this occasion I was asked to deliver a 30-minute presenta...
BibTeX reference
The Twelfth Montreal IPSW took place on August 22-26, 2022, and was jointly organized by the Centre de recherches mathématiques (CRM) and the Institute for D...
BibTeX reference
The transmission of the contagious COVID-19 is known to be highly dependent on individual viral dynamics. Since the cycle threshold (Ct) is the only semi-qua...
BibTeX reference
We study a staffing optimization problem in multi-skill call centers. The objective is to minimize the total cost of agents under some quality of service (Q...
BibTeX reference
We explore the use of Array-RQMC, a randomized quasi-Monte Carlo method designed for the simulation of Markov chains, to reduce the variance when simulating...
BibTeX referenceOptimization of infectious disease prevention and control policies using agent-based modeling
The spread of an infectious disease such as COVID-19 is governed by complex social interactions that are challenging to model. Policy makers must take measur...
BibTeX reference
We study a new variant of the vehicle routing problem, which arises in hospital-wide scheduling of physical therapists. Multiple service locations exist for...
BibTeX referenceSemi\(^+\)-supervised learning under sample selection bias
In time-to-event data analysis, the main object of interest is the time elapsed between the occurrence of two ordered events, say \(E_1, E_2\)
. Sampling fr...
Statistical learning with the determinantal point process
The determinantal point process (DPP) provides a promising and attractive alternative to simple random sampling in cluster analysis or classification, for th...
BibTeX reference
Nanoparticle-mediated drug delivery may be a promising alternative to traditional chemo-therapy of high systemic toxicity. Tumor tissue architecture poses a ...
BibTeX reference
This paper considers a dynamic Emergency Medical Services (EMS) network design problem and introduces two novel two-stage stochastic programming formulatio...
BibTeX reference
This paper investigates the current patient transportation between services in a large hospital and provides a simulation-optimization solution to reduce com...
BibTeX reference
Nanotherapy represents a promising approach to target tumors with anticancer drugs while minimizing systemic toxicity. Evaluation of nanoparticle (NP) design...
BibTeX reference
This paper focuses on designing a state estimator for a discrete-time SEIR epidemic model of an influenza-like illness. It is assumed that only sets of adm...
BibTeX reference
In this paper, we focus on the problem that has been described in the second international nurse rostering competition: a personalized nurse scheduling prob...
BibTeX reference
In this paper, we describe an algorithm for the personalized nurse scheduling problem. We focus on the deterministic counterpart of the specific problem t...
