This grant provides funds for PhD students and post-doctoral researchers to attend the 16th Tri-Annual International Conference on Stochastic Programming (ICSP), in Davis, California, 24-28 July 2023. The ICSP is the premier event of the Stochastic Programming Society, a technical session of the Mathematical Optimization Society that brings together researchers, students, and practitioners who work on decision-making under uncertainty. Funded participants are expected to engage in research at the intersection of data and decision analytics, machine learning, and operations research, with applications to autonomous systems, climate adaptation, and cyber-physical systems. The emphasis on new challenges brought by emerging technologies requires novel ways of conceptualizing and modeling decision processes in coupled systems. Multiple sources of uncertainty become common when using optimization models to plan for responses to natural disasters. New research directions and ideas are expected to converge among the conference participants. This project reduces financial barriers for underrepresented groups to attend the conference and thus makes STEM fields more diverse and inclusive. The conference also provides a networking opportunity for researchers in industry and academic institutions of the US and other countries.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该赠款为博士生和博士后研究人员提供资金，用于参加 2023 年 7 月 24 日至 28 日在加利福尼亚州戴维斯举行的第 16 届三年一度的随机规划国际会议 (ICSP)。ICSP 是随机规划学会的首要活动，数学优化协会的技术会议，汇集了从事不确定性决策的研究人员、学生和从业者。受资助的参与者预计将从事数据和决策分析、机器学习和运筹学交叉领域的研究，并应用于自主系统、气候适应和网络物理系统。强调新兴技术带来的新挑战需要在耦合系统中对决策过程进行概念化和建模的新方法。当使用优化模型来规划自然灾害响应时，多种不确定性来源变得很常见。新的研究方向和想法预计将在会议参与者中汇聚。该项目减少了代表性不足群体参加会议的财务障碍，从而使 STEM 领域更加多样化和包容性。该会议还为美国和其他国家的工业和学术机构的研究人员提供了交流机会。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，认为值得支持。
