While we are all leaving Phoenix, AZ, I would like to thank the INFORMS staff, the #informs2023 organizing committee, and all (academic and business) colleagues for a superb event. In total, 6,500+ attendees showed up here. See you all in Seattle, WA. #informs2024
Closing plenary at the #informs2023 Annual Meeting by Dr. David Simchi-Levi (MIT). He emphasizes the importance of supply chain resiliency, supply chain digitization, price optimization. At the methodological level, he emphasizes online learning. #orms
Interesting session at the #INFORMS2023 Annual Meeting on personalized reinforcement learning in business. Here, the focus is on assortment and pricing to maximize cumulative total revenue. #orms
Day 4 of the #informs2023 Annual Meeting in Phoenix, AZ. The Amazon Science Session is still well-attended on the topics of estimating willingness to pay (WTP) for delivery speed, pricing experiments, and #pricing optimization.
Great talk by Dr. Hamsa Balakrishnan (MIT) at #informs2023 on advanced air mobility. She discussed 3 challenges. #orms
Interesting research on using GPT-3.5 for stock trading at the #informs2023 Annual Meeting in Phoenix, AZ. #ChatGPT #LLM #LLMs Preliminary results are promising (win rate of 52.78), but no transaction costs are accounted for yet.
Interesting paper on estimating bond returns using graph neural networks at #informs2023. It turns the institutional bond holding into a network and develops a Temporal Bipartite Graph Neural Network (TBGNN) model to capture valuable information from connections for bond pricing.
Interesting study by TUDelft presented at #informs2023 on airline network planning considering climate impact. #climate #orms ISO on the slide refers to introducing intermediate stopovers, FL stands for flying low. Both interventions could help mitigating climate impact.
Interesting talk on eVTOLs (Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing) at #INFORMS2023. eVTOLs are not expected to replace an existing mode of transportation, rather, they are expected to provide a new service called urban air mobility (UAM). The authors simulate energy consumption.
Day 3 of the #INFORMS2023 Annual Meeting. Today, I’m starting off with dynamic pricing. #orms
If you are interested in DEI-focused as well as broad funding opportunities at NSF, please consider attending the #informs2023 DEIC/MIF panel. I will be one of the panelists, along with the NSF program directors Siqian Shen and Linkan Bian.

Great talk by Matthew Lanham (@MatthewALanham). Key in how to teach predictive and prescriptive analytics: Beginning with the end in mind, use @INFORMS CAP, do not extrapolate beyond the range of typical values (convex hull constraints). #ORMS #informs2023
My former student Junyang Cai (now a PhD student with Bistra Dilkina) is one of the finalists of the INFORMS Undergraduate Operations Research Prize at #informs2023
The presentation is today at 12:45 in CC-West 212A
Still some seats available in case you would like to join us in CC 227-A #informs2023

Thanks Austin Saragih for the nice picture of my presentation this morning at the Data Mining and Decision Analytics workshop at #informs2023 #orms
Great examples by Austin Saragih about what is a submodular and an alpha-submodular value function at the #informs2023 DMDA workshop!
I really liked Maytal Saar-Tsechansky’s perspective that we should not try to have the “best” AI to help guiding human decisions, but instead focus on developing AI that has complementary strengths and awareness of when to make recommendations to create value.
