One of our participants for the #SWI2024 was IKEA. They're tackling the challenges of e-commerce and order fulfillment head-on. As online orders surged during the pandemic, IKEA faced logistical hurdles in efficiently allocating orders. The current approach, though effective, lacks consideration for future orders, potentially leading to sub-optimal performance over time and across sites. The Problem: Develop a strategy to anticipate upcoming orders and minimize total costs in assigning orders to picking sites. Exciting journey ahead as we explore innovative approaches to enhance IKEA's smart allocation of online orders! 🌐🛍️ #IKEA #SupplyChainInnovation #SWIConference

We are in the midst of planning for our next Math4NL Community Event. We would love your input about this year’s potential topics, and please feel free to comment any ideas you have as well. #Math4NL #AppliedMathematics

Rianne de Heide, an assistant professor in the Department of Mathematics at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, shares insights into the challenges researchers face in understanding and applying the p-value, a standard in scientific studies. Specialising in problems and solutions in machine learning and statistics, she recently presented an alternative, the 'e-value,' developed in collaboration with fellow mathematicians. The p-value, widely used in fields like medicine, psychology, and economics, often leads to misinterpretations and contributes to the replication crisis. De Heide's research addresses the flaws in the p-value and introduces the e-value, providing a more comprehensible and reliable tool for hypothesis testing.

Three weeks ago, the Study Group Mathematics with Industry (SWI) 2024 was held at the VU Amsterdam, and it was truly an enriching experience! We were thrilled to have mathematicians collaborate with industry leaders including IKEA, VSL National Metrology Institute, Doing The Math - for a sustainable future , Groendus, The Driving Force, and Air France-KLM. To read more about the outcomes you can visit https://lnkd.in/eSgCD3n8 and keep an eye on our page. A big thank you to all the participants for making SWI 2024 a success! 🙌 Looking forward to future collaborations and the impactful solutions that will undoubtedly emerge from this incredible synergy. #SWI2024 #Collaboration #Innovation #Mathematics #IndustryPartnerships #VUAmsterdam #appliedmathematics #math4nl

Come work on exciting real-world mathematical problems at the Study Group Mathematics with Industry (SWI) 2024! From January 29th till February 2nd, 2024, this workshop will be held at VU Amsterdam and registration is now open (and free!). Previous editions of SWI have included exciting cases on strategies for racing solar cars, optimizing the rating system for tennis matches used by the KNLTB, and personalized health monitoring. Hope to see you there! https://lnkd.in/dW93tWYE Math4NL
