Efficient Sequential and Parallel Algorithms for Multistage Stochastic Integer Programming Using Proximity

Friedrich Eisenbrand, Moritz Andreas Venzin, Jana Tabea Cslovjecsek

We consider the problem of solving integer programs of the form min {c^⊺ x : Ax = b, x ∈ ℤ_{⩾ 0}}, where A is a multistage stochastic matrix in the following sense: the primal treedepth of A is bounded by a parameter d, which means that the columns of A ca ...

Motivating Innovation: The Effect of Loss Aversion on the Willingness to Persist

Kenneth Younge

We investigate the willingness of individuals to persist at exploration in the face of failure. Prior research suggests that the organization's "tolerance for failure" may motivate greater exploration by the individual. Little is known, however, about how ...

Assessment of Real-World Running With Lab-Validated Algorithms Based on Foot-Worn Inertial Sensors

Mathieu Pascal Falbriard

Following the cultural revolution of the late 1960s, the number of elite and recreational runners rose consistently, reaching approximately 7.9 million road races participants in 2018. Today, running is everywhere. City parks, forests, mountain trails, and ...

Fully dynamic bin packing revisited

Kim-Manuel Klein

We consider the fully dynamic bin packing problem, where items arrive and depart in an online fashion and repacking of previously packed items is allowed. The goal is, of course, to minimize both the number of bins used as well as the amount of repacking. ...
