Nonlinear Optimization (非線性最佳化)
- Course objective: Nonlinear optimization is widely used in engineering, business, data science, and machine learning. We will introduce fundamental algorithms through examples in this course, enabling students to read research articles, formulate their own problems, and solve them efficiently using the appropriate algorithms.

下廚
對我而言,煮飯是讓腦袋和眼睛休息的好方法、也可以半蹲切菜以活動筋骨。當然,用料也比較健康。
整個過程也和做研究是一樣的,如何修正火候和配料、觀察結果、再持續改善;菜色也要持續變化,想辦法創新。煎魚的時候,為了避免想要一直翻面的缺點,就設定鬧鐘,避免人為疏失。
最重要的是,夫人不斷地鼓勵與正向回饋,令人有成就感。

怎麼讀經典?
眾說紛紜,你可能已經暈頭轉向,但讓我們稍稍將自己從這些批判聲浪中抽離出來,我想先介紹經典的四種書寫策略:解釋 (explain)、詮釋 (interpret)、批判(critique)、提出處方 (prescribe),熟悉這些概念之後,將來你閱讀任何「經典」會少去很多迷航的時間,面對任何言論也比較不會迷失,因為你將可以清楚地將他們定位。

Desiderata (渴望)
Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.
