About

His first project focuses on the study of the theory and algorithms for solving nonlinear constrained optimization problems in discrete, continuous, or mixed spaces. Based on a new necessary and sufficient condition for characterizing constrained local optima and by exploiting the localities of constraints in these problems, his team has developed new algorithms for solving large-scale application problems in temporal planning, satisfiability, and nonlinear programming that are too large for other solvers.
