Submodular optimisation lies at the heart of a broad class of combinatorial decision problems in which the objective exhibits diminishing marginal returns. Formally, a submodular function assigns a ...

Submodular maximization is a significant area of interest in combinatorial optimization, with numerous real-world applications. A research team led by Xiaoming SUN from the State Key Lab of Processors ...

Optimization problems are everywhere in engineering: Balancing design tradeoffs is an optimization problem, as are scheduling and logistical planning. The theory—and sometimes the implementation—of ...
