Due to the explosive growth in the technology for manufacturing integrated circuits, modern chips contain millions of transistors. Using sophisticated optimization algorithms, it is possible to achieve notable increases in the performance of the chips, reduce the manufacturing costs, and produce faster, cheaper computing for society. Thus, the objective of this project is to enhance the solution of large-scale optimization problems arising in these applications.

Graphical models have been one of the most efficient statistical tools used in the last twenty years for the analysis of complex structured high-dimensional data. Graphical models provide a probabilistic framework for making inference and representing the knowledge that we have about these complex structured data. In biological research and more particularly in the emerging -omics disciplines such as genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, transcriptomics, data are often generated from complex high throughput experiments and from complex experimental designs.
