Optimization-assisted event tree analysis

Optimization-assisted event tree analysis couples the structured probability logic of classical event tree analysis (ETA) with an optimization layer — typically mathematical programming or metaheuristic search — to identify the best combination of safety barriers, mitigation strategies, or resource allocations that minimizes risk or cost while satisfying engineering constraints. It is used in industrial risk engineering, nuclear safety, process industries, and infrastructure reliability.
