The Midwest Optimization & Statistical Learning Conference is a biannual conference series that brings together leaders in the field of optimization and machine learning to present and discuss cutting ...

Researchers have demonstrated that statistical optimization techniques provide substantial efficiency increases when engineering layered van der Waals heterostructures. The research team used the ...

Great progress has been made in the past few years in our understanding of nonconvex optimizations. In this talk, I will share with you three of our works in this direction. In one, we study low-rank ...

It has been estimated that there are more than 10^ 100 possible materials that can be synthesised, grown, and optimised. Materials design can be a slow and laborious process and investigating the full ...
