We have studied actuator-position optimization problems in linear time-invariant (LTI) systems. Here, we present one of the results, a performance index for actuator positions using the reachability ...

In this paper, we first recall the three restrictive hypotheses outside which it is not possible to speak of an optimum, and then we specify in which context (decision aid) this article is located.

Hyped as the solution to many problems – both hard and easy – quantum-enhanced optimization is a burgeoning research field. But with untrainable circuits, “barren plateaus” and deceptive local minimas ...

Bicycle sharing systems have become an attractive option to alleviate traffic in congested cities. However, rebalancing the number of bikes at each port as time passes is essential, and finding the ...

Research teams from energy giant ExxonMobil and IBM have been working together to find quantum solutions to one of the most complex problems of our time: managing the tens of thousands of merchant ...
