In this note we show that multiple solutions exist for the productioninventory example in the seminal paper on adjustable robust optimization in [2]. All these optimal robust solutions have the same worst-case objective value, but the mean objective values differ up to 21.9% and for individual realizations this difference can be up to 59.4%. We show via additional experiments that these differe...

We consider linear programs with uncertain parameters, lying in some prescribed uncertainty set, where part of the variables must be determined before the realization of the uncertain parameters (”non-adjustable variables”), while the other part are variables that can be chosen after the realization (”adjustable variables”). We extend the Robust Optimization methodology ([1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 13, ...

In the behavioral sciences, a popular approach to describe and predict behavior is cognitive modeling with adjustable parameters (i.e., which can be fitted to data). Modeling with adjustable parameters allows, among other things, measuring differences between people. At the same time, parameter estimation also bears the risk of overfitting. Are individual differences as measured by model parame...

Room-temperature stabilization of skyrmions in magnetic multilayered systems results from a fine balance between several interactions, namely, symmetric and antisymmetric exchange, dipolar interaction perpendicular anisotropy as well as, most cases, Zeeman through an applied external field. Such field-driven approach is, however, not compatible with the anticipated skyrmion based applications, ...

INTRODUCTION Both limbal and para limbal conjunctival incisions are routinely used in strabismus surgery with comparable results however their outcome has not been compared while using adjustable sutures. OBJECTIVE To compare limbal (von Noorden) and para limbal (Santiago) conjunctival incisions for adjustable recessions of horizontal recti. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Uniocular adjustable recessi...
