Contents Preface -- Recent progress in modeling unit commitment problems -- Portfolio optimization with combinatorial and downside return constraints -- An intialization strategy for high-dimensional surrogate-based expensive black-box optimization -- Smoothing and regularization for mixed-integer second-order cone programming with applications in portfolio -- The duality between the perceptron algorithm and the von Neumann algorithm
Summary This volume contains a selection of contributions that were presented at the Modeling and Optimization: Theory and Applications Conference (MOPTA) held at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, USA on July 30-August 1, 2012. The conference brought together a diverse group of researchers and practitioners, working on both theoretical and practical aspects of continuous or discrete optimization. Topics presented included algorithms for solving convex, network, mixed-integer, nonlinear, and global optimization problems, and addressed the application of optimization techniques in finance, logistics, health, and other important fields. The contributions contained in this volume represent a sample of these topics and applications and illustrate the broad diversity of ideas discussed at the meeting
