O. L. Mangasarian, Linear and Nonlinear Separation of Patterns by Linear Programming, Operations Research, Vol. 13, No. 3 (May - Jun., 1965), pp. 444-452 ...

Studies linear and nonlinear programming, the simplex method, duality, sensitivity, transportation and network flow problems, some constrained and unconstrained optimization theory, and the ...

Successive Linear Programming (SLP) algorithms solve nonlinear optimization problems via a sequence of linear programs. They have been widely used, particularly in the oil and chemical industries, ...

The equation y = x is linear because adding together inputs yields the sum of their respective outputs: 1 = 1, 2 = 2, and 1 + 2 = 1 + 2. But that’s not true of y = x 2: if x is 1, y is 1; if x ...

Nonlinear regression is a form of regression analysis in which data is fit to a model and then expressed as a mathematical function. Simple linear regression relates two variables (X and Y) with a ...

Eventually linear programming came to be used in everything from manufacturing to diet planning. George Bernard Dantzig was born in Portland, Ore., on Nov. 8, 1914.
