Optimization Seminar


Event information

Description

The Optimization Seminar is intended to offer the research groups at the University of Heidelberg that are working in optimization a platform to present their work, combine research interests and generally establish an interactive effort to research optimization topics at the IWR and the math faculty.

Organization

The seminar is organized by the research group Scientific Computing and Optimization (R. Herzog) and was started in October 2021. Since May 2024, the seminar is represented in the University of Heidelberg physics faculty’s seminar talks organizer HePhySTO. You can get an overview of the upcoming and past talks in our seminar here.

Times, Location

The seminar is structured as weekly presentations during the teaching semesters. Our standard slot is Wednesdays, 11:00h - 12:00h in SR 11 of the INF 205 Mathematikon building, but please check the time and room of the talks in HePhySTO.

Format

Duration of talks can range from 15 up to 50 minutes. We invite members of the organizing groups to offer presentations to practice talks for upcoming conferences, PhD defenses or simply to present new ideas in the development stage that might offer a chance of cooperation between the research groups. Some slots will be filled by invited external speakers.
