Decision making in advanced manufacturing
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2015-08)In this dissertation, we demonstrate how operations research (OR) methods can be effectively implemented in advanced manufacturing environments in order to im- prove decision-making processes. Most manufacturing processes ... -
Design of experiments for reinforcement learning
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2014-08)Reinforcement learning is one of the fundamental learning techniques that humans use to learn how to interact with and make decisions within challenging or uncertain environments. In essence, it is based on an iterative ... -
Designing a research and development portfolio for combatting extreme events : a linearly constrained multi-objective optimization problem
