Understand canonical form of linear programming: minimize c^T x, with A x = b and x >= 0, and learn conversions for maximization, inequalities via slack variables, and unrestricted variables.
Learn how to prepare linear programs for the simplex method by converting to standard form with slack variables, then build and pivot the simplex tableau to reach the optimal solution.
Operations Research (OR) and Optimization are fundamental in solving real-world problems across industries. From logistics and finance to artificial intelligence and system simulation, these techniques help organizations make better decisions, reduce costs, and improve efficiency.
This course is designed to give you practical expertise in OR and optimization, focusing on real-world applications rather than just theory. You’ll start with the fundamentals—what optimization is, how it connects to Operations Research, and its role in industries. Then, we’ll move into more advanced topics, covering Integer Programming, Nonlinear Programming, and Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP).
The course includes hands-on projects where we solve practical problems such as the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), Portfolio Optimization, Warehouse Simulation, Job Shop Scheduling, and the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP). You will learn to implement these solutions in Julia, using mathematical models and optimization techniques that apply to real-world decision-making scenarios.
Additionally, we will cover stochastic optimization, prescriptive analytics, and machine learning-based optimization. By the end of this course, you’ll be equipped to tackle large-scale, complex optimization problems using Operations Research techniques.
More lessons will be added to expand the scope of this course, covering even more real-world optimization challenges.
