Heuristics for routing and scheduling of Spatio-temporal type problems in industrial environments
Abstract: Spatio-temporal problems are fairly common in industrial environments. In practice, these problems come with different characteristics and are often very hard to solve optimally. So, practitioners prefer to develop heuristics that exploit mathematical structure specific to the problem for obtaining good performance. In this thesis, we will present work on heuristics for 3 different [...]
Computational Light Transport with Interferometry
3305 Newell-Simon HallAbstract: Optical interferometry is the measurement of small, sub-wavelength distances by exploiting the wave nature of light. Due to its capability to resolve micron-scale displacements, it has found widespread applications in biomedical imaging, industrial fabrication, physics, and astrophysics. In this thesis, we introduce a set of techniques we call computational interferometry, that bring the benefits [...]
