Institut für Mathematische Optimierung
Mathematical Optimization is sometimes referred to as the "Science of the Better". It is one important methodology in scientific computing, the third pillar of science that complements theory and experiment. Also in many areas of modern life optimization has become a key technology for efficient usage of resources, also due to the optimization-driven advances in machine learning and artificial intelligence. Research at IMO focusses both on mathematical and computational aspects of optimization and connections to machine learning.
