Dr. Jourdain Lamperski - Linear Programming and Calibrating Model Parameters using Optimization

  • Summary

  • Jourdain Bernard Lamperski is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Industrial Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh. He received a B.S. in Mathematics from the University of Pittsburgh, and a PhD in Operations Research from the Operations Research Center at MIT where he was advised by Robert M. Freund. His research interests include optimization, machine learning, and healthcare.

    We discuss Jourdain's career:
    - Why did he choose to go to MIT ORC?
    - How did he choose what to work on and his advisor?
    - Why did he choose to become a professor in Industrial Engineering at University of Pittsburgh?

    And we discuss Jourdain's research:
    - He explains the 'oblivious' ellipsoid method that he developed and analyzed during his PhD
    - He explains a healthcare project about using optimization methods to calibrate model parameters for the progression of opioid use disorder in patients.

    Thanks for listening and thanks to Jourdain!
