Map by @jessiefin.bsky.social, in collaboration with Francisco Marmolejo-Cossío, Jacqueline Caulderon, and Lizet Jarquin. Data from INEGI. This map (+ Day 11) is part of their ongoing collaboration continuing some of the work from the 2024 EAAMO social hackathon in San Luis Potosí, Mexico.

⚠️ WANTED: PhD student ⚠️ The topic? GPU-friendly algorithms for discrete optimization and mathematical programming, to be used inside decision-focused learning pipelines. The mentors? My colleague Axel Parmentier and myself. [1/3]

So much fun to meet new folks at BEACH yesterday and share some recent work of mine! Huge thanks to the organizers

#30DayMapChallenge day 10: Air @jessiefin.bsky.social + Francisco Marmolejo-Cossío visualize the presence of ladrilleras, or brick kilns, which emit pollution across the state. Data cleaned by Jacqueline Calderón and Lizet Jarquin at UASLP. Full interactive map: tinyurl.com/map10-air

I haven't seen anything come out yet, but does anyone know about details and dates for SAGT this year? The only info I see is last year's call and wasn't sure if the timing should be similar this year. TIA

*Please repost* @sjgreenwood.bsky.social and I just launched a new personalized feed (*please pin*) that we hope will become a "must use" for #academicsky. The feed shows posts about papers filtered by *your* follower network. It's become my default Bluesky experience bsky.app/profile/pape...

🚨 Call for Papers – #EAAMO25 🚨 We invite researchers, practitioners & policymakers to submit work on equity, access, & fairness in algorithms, optimization & mechanism design. 📅 Abstracts due Apr-17 📅 Papers due April-24 🔗 Learn more: conference.eaamo.org/cfp/

Excited to share some recent work with @sunk8th.bsky.social and Milind Tambe on the effects of loss function choice with limited model capacity: arxiv.org/pdf/2502.19522 (Thanks to my @hcrcs.bsky.social postdoc for introducing me to these great folks, too!)
