Surgical Scheduling via Optimization and Machine Learning with Long-Tailed Data

no code implementations13 Feb 2022 Yuan Shi, Saied Mahdian, Jose Blanchet, Peter Glynn, Andrew Y. Shin, David Scheinker

Using data from cardiovascular surgery patients with long and highly variable post-surgical lengths of stay (LOS), we develop a modeling framework to reduce recovery unit congestion.

Optimal Transport Relaxations with Application to Wasserstein GANs

no code implementations7 Jun 2019 Saied Mahdian, Jose Blanchet, Peter Glynn

We propose a family of relaxations of the optimal transport problem which regularize the problem by introducing an additional minimization step over a small region around one of the underlying transporting measures.

Waterfall Bandits: Learning to Sell Ads Online

no code implementations20 Apr 2019 Branislav Kveton, Saied Mahdian, S. Muthukrishnan, Zheng Wen, Yikun Xian

We design an online learning algorithm for solving this problem, which interleaves learning and optimization, and prove that this algorithm has sublinear regret.
