Mathematical Optimization with MATLAB

The video tutorial covers solving mathematical optimization problems using MATLAB. It begins with setting up an example problem with a nonlinear objective function and constraints. The tutorial then guides viewers through accessing course resources, including sections on Excel and Python. It explains how to download and set up the MATLAB script and model file, detailing the use of the APMonitor optimization toolbox. Finally, the video demonstrates running the optimization and viewing the results, with a brief introduction to solving the same problem in Python.
