SUMMARY:First Friday Webinar - Programming by Optimization: Automated algorithm configuration\, selection and beyond
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, there has been a significant increase in the use of automated algorithm design methods\, such as automated algorithm configuration and portfolio-based algorithm selection\, across many areas within operations research\, artificial intelligence and beyond. These methods are based on cutting-edge machine learning and optimization techniques; they have also led to substantial advances in those areas. \nIn this tutorial\, I will give an overview of these automated algorithm design methods and introduce Programming by Optimization (PbO)\, a principled approach for developing high-performance software based on them. I will explain how PbO can fundamentally change the nature of developing solvers for challenging computational problems and give examples for its successful application to a range of prominent problems from OR and AI – notably\, mixed integer programming\, the travelling salesman problem\, AI planning\, automated reasoning and machine learning. \n\n\n\nEWG POR webinars organisers: \nSofiane Oussedik (IBM)\, Joaquim Gromicho (ORTEC)\, Patrick Schittekat (SINTEF)\, Gavin Bell (Optimeering)\, Adisa Mujezinovic
