Binary quadratic programming (BQP) is a class of combinatorial optimization problems comprising binary variables, quadratic objective functions and linear/no...
BibTeX referenceAdaptive simultaneous stochastic optimization of mining complexes: Where is the value coming from?
This paper aims to identify the sources of value created in the strategic plan of a mining complex when the adaptive simultaneous stochastic optimization of ...

The goal of the Encyclopedia of Optimization is to introduce the reader to a complete set of topics that sh...
BibTeX referenceIntegrating learning and explicit model predictive control for unit commitment in microgrids
In this paper, we apply flexibility-based operational planning method to microgrid (MG) unit commitment (UC). The problem is formulated based on model predi...
