Integer Quadratic Programming Models in Computational Biology

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Operations Research Proceedings ((ORP,volume 2006))

Abstract

This presentation has two purposes: (1) show operations researchers how they can apply quadratic binary programming to current problems in molecular biology, and (2) show formulations of some combinatorial optimization problems as integer programs. The former purpose is primary, and I wish to persuade researchers to enter this exciting frontier. The latter purpose is part of a work in progress.
