3- Thèse CIFRE, Inria Saclay-Safety Line
(source : J.F. Bonnans)
Sujet de thèse : Exploration de données pour l'optimisation de
trajectoires aériennes
Le partenariat Inria-Safety Line a déjà permis de vérifier la
faisabilité de l'exploitation des enregistrements en vol afin de
calibrer des modèles de mécanique du vol, de propulsion et de
consommation qui permettent ensuite d'optimiser les trajectoires en
terme de consommation ou temps minimal.
L'objet de la thèse est d'arriver à une analyse plus précise. La
première étape sera d'identifier avec soin les parties du domaine de vol
dans lesquelles les données permettent de calibrer effectivement
les paramètres du modèle. On pourra représenter ces sous domaines comme
des unions d'ellipsoïdes et de polyèdres, avec pour but l'obtention
d'une méthode souple permettant d'extraire ces informations d'une grande
base de données.
La seconde étape est l'optimisation de trajectoire sous contrainte de
rester dans ces sous domaines de vol. On pourra relaxer la contrainte en
pénalisant la distance aux sous domaines, et on testera ces possibilités
par les deux approches 'directe' et programmation dynamique.
La troisième étape est l'estimation plus précise des paramètres et de
leur domaine d'incertitude pour étudier la possibilité de résolution de
l'optimisation de trajectoire dans une situation 'pire cas'.

The topic of the project is development and analysis of numerical
methods for solving optimization or optimal control problems in the
context of coupled multi-physic problems. This is a collaboration
project between the chair of Optimal Control (www-m17.ma.tum.de) and
the chair of Structural Analysis (www.st.bgu.tum.de).
Applicants should hold a master's degree in mathematics or related
areas. They are asked to submit a curriculum vitae, copies of
certifications of academic qualifications held, a copy of a degree
thesis and a letter of recommendation.
Please send you application or question about the project/position to
Prof. Dr. Boris Vexler (vexler at ma.tum.de).

5- PhD and post-doctoral positions at the Catholic University of Louvain
(UCL), Belgium
(source : D. Aussel)
The Center for Operations Research and Econometrics (CORE) is announcing
one PhD opening and one post-doctoral research opening
at the Catholic University of Louvain (UCL), Belgium.
The research will focus on optimization models and algorithms for
electricity markets and power systems operations, with an emphasis on
(i) mobilizing flexible resources in order to support the operation of
future electric power systems, and (ii) tackling the resulting problems
by developing distributed computing methods.
The stimulating research environment of CORE is supported by faculty
whose expertise covers a wide range of domains in optimization, energy,
economics, and statistics, strong interactions with international
collaborators in Europe and the United States and access to powerful
computing infrastructure. UCL is located a half hour away from Brussels,
in the heart of Europe.
Applications are due November 22nd, 2015. For additional details
regarding the research projects, benefits, and application material
please email Anthony Papavasiliou at anthony.papavasiliou at uclouvain.be
or consult the following link:

7- PhD Positions at the University of Vienna
(source : J.F. Bonnans)
The Department of Statistics and Operations Research at the University
of Vienna (working group of Professor Pflug) opens a position for a PhD
student (prae doc assistant) as of September/October 2015. The candidate
should hold a Master Degree in Mathematics, Statistics, Operations
Research or a similar discipline.
During the appointment of 3 years the candidate should phrase and
complete his/her PhD thesis. He/she is supposed to actively take part in
the research activities of the department and hold exercise classes for
undergraduates (2 hours per week). The research group of Prof. Pflug is
actively involved in Risk Management, Stochastic Optimization,
Statistical Modelling and Statistics of Extremes. The candidate should
have good knowledge in probability/statistics as well as in
optimization. It is expected that the degree of a PhD is awarded to the
candidate within the 3-year period.
The annual salary is about EUR 36,000 before taxes.
The University lays special emphasis on increasing the number of women
in academic positions. Given equal qualifications, preference will be
given to female applicants.
Candidates should explain their interest by writing an email to
Professor Georg Pflug at georg.pflug at univie.ac.at. Please include a
motivation letter explaining your preferred topic for the PhD thesis and
your general interest in pursuing a PhD study, as well as a CV and 1-2
reference letters (if possible). A list of publications and/or lectures
given, if available, would be welcome. Knowledge of statistical program
packages and/or optimization software is of advantage (R, Matlab,
Gams/AIMMS etc.).
In addition, another PhD position (with same requirments as attached)
and one Post-Doc position will be opened in Jan 2016. Especially the
Post Doc position is possibly of interest for your students finishing
PhD. It is in the framework of a research initiative for Computational
Optimization. We need a person who is good in Stochastic and

The focus will be set in particular on three axes:
- optimization problems in machine learning,
- learning with structured data and natural language,
- sequential learning.
The trimester will start with a summer school and will continue with
three thematic workshops:
- Summer school - 14th to 18th September 2015
- workshop 1 - 6th to 7th October 2015
- workshop 2 - 9th to 10th November 2015
