Search space: your dose of OR discoveries
Hey, Borja here! 👋
Consider these new posts on Saturdays your dose of OR discoveries without the time investment of finding them yourself.
In summary: a curated list of news.
Today’s a special edition. We’re going back to school, so now’s the time to get inspiration and learn new concepts!
🎨 Learning with visualizations is super powerful, especially when you’re on the way to learn complex algorithms. And if it’s in a beautiful manner, even better. I stumbled upon Learn Graph Theory by chance, and I see it as a great resource for learning graph theory (bet you didn’t see that coming). Thanks, Mohammed.
🎲 Speaking about beautiful visualizations, what about learning optimization with games? 13 games for 13 optimization problems that you will compare against the machine. Incredible work from Jonas Velasco. You can also subscribe to his newsletter!
🏭 Learning the fundamentals, the underlying mathematics, and practical coding examples of the industrial applications of mathematical optimization is great, and if it comes from a Decision Scientist at Amazon, even better. Donato Maragno just started a blog about that.
⭕️ To close the circle, let’s finish with visualizations that I found by chance too. Constant, logarithmic, linear, quadratic… What are they? You get it right: some categories of Big O notation. Click here to visualize them.
Found something I should see? Send it my way and I’ll credit you next week.
In the meantime…
Let’s keep optimizing,
Borja.
