Prof. Alexander Shapiro's considerable contributions to the field of optimization led to his being awarded the 2018 Dantzig Prize. His work has various applications, including the methodology he developed w/ Brazil's ONS on hydroelectric power. Read more: https://t.co/Jgi2zeAR9z.

Since her applied math PhD @RiceUniversity in '93, Eva Lee has applied the power of #Analytics to ever-harder problems, from supply chains to cancer detection (@informs Edelman Prize in '07) & now to the killer of hundreds of millions of humans: #influenza. Be like Eva! https://t.co/24H5qVUoWx

Our new result with @madeleineudell + zhou: shows convergence rate for novel ltd memory variant of Bach's simpicial method for minimizing convex + submodular objectives --> solving Bach's conjecture (2015). Dual is ltd memory FCFW --> provably small subproblems, better run time!
