Abstract: We discuss how various questions arising from different real-life and research fields can be modeled as optimization problems and solved by employing optimization algorithms. The concrete applications we present come from fields like game theory, finance, machine learning, location theory and image processing.

Keywords: optimization algorithms, optimization models, proximal point methods, convex optimization, clustering, mathematical finance, game theory, machine learning, support vector machines, location problems, image processing

Prerequisites: basic knowledge of linear algebra and calculus
