In this talk I review a couple of
applications on Big Data that I personally like and I try
to explain my point of view as a Mathematical Optimizer –
especially concerned with discrete (integer) decisions –
on the subject. I advocate a tight integration of Machine
Learning and Mathematical Optimization (among others) to
deal with the challenges of decision-making in Data
Science. For such an integration I try to answer three
questions:
1) what can optimization do for
machine learning?
2) what can machine learning do
for optimization?
3) which new applications can be
solved by the combination of machine learning and
optimization?
