    Simulation optimization: a review of algorithms and applications

    Simulation optimization (SO) refers to the optimization of an objective function subject to constraints, both of which can be evaluated through a stochastic simulation. To address specific features of a partic...

    Global optimization of nonlinear least-squares problems by branch-and-bound and optimality constraints

    We study a simple, yet unconventional approach to the global optimization of unconstrained nonlinear least-squares problems. Non-convexity of the sum of least-squares objective in parameter estimation problems...

    Portfolio optimization for wealth-dependent risk preferences

    Empirical and theoretical studies of preference structures of investors have long shown that personal and corporate utility is typically multimodal, implying that the same investor can be risk-averse at certai...
