Expertise

Overview

Dolores Romero Morales has a BSc and MSc in Mathematics from Universidad de Sevilla and a PhD in Operations Research from Erasmus University Rotterdam. Before joining the School, she was Assistant Professor at Universiteit Maastricht.

Research interests

Dolores Romero Morales' main research streams are supply chain optimization (SCO), data mining (DM) and revenue management (RM). In SCO, she is interested in coordination schemes for decentralized supply chains. In DM, she works on Supervised Classification, and in particular, improving the explanatory power of Support Vector Machines. In RM, she is currently working on the development of non-additive bid prices for network revenue management.
