      Content of Learning Activity

      The main subject of this course is to cover some techniques of convex optimization, a field that has undergone considerable development over the last three decades. This course is based on I-MARO-035 (Linear Optimization) and I-MARO-036 (Nonlinear Optimization). The heart of this course is conic optimization and more specifically semidefinite optimization that allows the modelisation of many problems in applied science. 
      The students must be able to undertsand the theoretical concepts behind these methods and to implement and use them on real-world problems.
      Attendance at theory/exercises classes of at least 80% is required.
      The teaching  methods are likely to be adjusted according to the context imposed by the health measures.
      The 80% rule of physical attendance would be transformed into a rule of 80% of online participation. Participation at practical sessions and seminars is still mandatory.
