Meetings/Workshops on Operational research in the United States (USA)

Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI)

The goal of the workshop is to explore the many emerging connections between the theory of Optimal Transport and models and algorithms currently used in the Machine Learning community. In particular, the use of Wasserstein metrics and the relation between discrete models and their continuous counterparts will be presented and discussed.

This workshop aims to bring together the essential communities from mathematics and engineering to address forthcoming issues central to our future transportation systems. It will bring together the operations research experts developing the next generation of fleet dispatching algorithms vital to mobility on demand services, the transportation engineers responsible for planning the future of our public and private transportation systems, and the modelers responsible for predicting new congestion dynamics at local and city scales. The workshop will also explore how these systems will operate in city, suburb, and rural contexts to support mobility needs for all.
