Comparison of Combinatorial and Continuous Frameworks for the Beam Angle Optimization Problem in IMRT

Radiation therapy (RT) is used nowadays for the majority of cancer patients. A technologically advanced type of RT is IMRT { intensity-modulated radiation therapy. With this RT modality the cancerous cells of the patient can be irradiated using non-uniform radiation maps delivered from di erent beam...
