Optimization × AI Forum
This forum aims to provide a timely, interactive platform for exploring how AI, as a tool, can advance optimization research. Through our online seminar series, we bring together researchers working on modeling, algorithms, and theory to discuss recent progress, share practical experience, examine limitations, and identify open questions.
How to Join
The seminar series is held on Zoom every two weeks on Fridays at 15:00 UTC (7:00 PST / 9:00 CST / 10:00 EST / 16:00 CET / 23:00 China). Each session lasts one hour and includes one or two talks, followed by a 20-minute discussion. The recording will be available here afterward with the speakers’ consent. Please visit Upcoming Talks for the current schedule and Zoom links.
