Data-Driven Multistage Robust Optimization—the New Frontier in Optimization

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Robust optimisation is a powerful technology for decision-making in uncertain environments. Yet, developing numerically certifiable optimisation principles and data-driven methods that can be readily implemented by common computer algorithms remains an elusive goal for multistage robust optimisation. But it is crucial for the practical use of multistage optimisation. This project aims to develop this novel mathematical theory and methods by extending the investigators' recent award winning advances, including the von Neumann-prizewinning Lasserre-hierarchy approach. Results will provide a foundation and technologies for making superior decisions in the pervasive presence of big data uncertainty, enhancing data-driven innovation in Australia
