5.制胜点
纵观整篇论文，没完成的模型（论文引用）不少，编程总共就两个，一个人口增长，一个层次分析。但是我们有条 理的解决了这个问题，并且排版相当美观，图表制作的非常好看。
我觉得美赛并不是考你有多少数学知识，或者编程多么牛逼，或者队员背景多么生猛。而是你们是否能够好好合 作，理清解决问题的思路，并有条理的写出来。你不一定要数学好编程好，也不需要有庞大的知识储备，而是要会 尽可能的找到你要的资料和数据，尽可能全面的思考问题，在可选范围内，挑你能做好的去做。网上资料那么多， 只是看你会不会发掘利用。
比赛报名：提前准备好visa或master card，名字和地址不要写错；
作息：要看各队情况了，原则是保证效率、不打乱节奏。前期都很亢奋，但如果打乱节奏可能导致后面疲劳期 时效率过低，其实美国赛截止时间并不是很严格，前期利用好亢奋期和每天的高效率时间的话，到了疲劳期还 能继续坚持下去，否则就是给你再多时间都无法持续下去。对那些想尝试达芬奇睡眠法的同学，建议先在之前 比赛和练习时充分适应，避免临时改变作息方式，打乱节奏，降低效率； 引用：如果copy了整段的原始论文，一定要注明来源——07年就出过outstanding奖因为引用的问题被收回的 事。这是原则问题，千万注意！ 邮寄论文：提前联系邮局/快递，确认好邮局每天邮寄时间，以倒推截止时间，事实上这么多时间，很少有人 能用满——这给了慢热队伍一个优势，之前练习也应先关注深度和质量，再考虑速度和效率；之前比赛的时 候，交完论文的几天别闲着，继续魔鬼训练——对做到极致的模型再完善深化，对论文结论再推广演绎，甚至
必须保证团队里每个人都有共同的愿景和强大的动力，否则内耗是迟早的事。
高手和好导师都是稀缺资源，下手越早收获可能越大，想找高手：
你必须也是个高手 ，至少某方面特长能给人信心； 必须保证团队间能衷诚合作 ，互相鼓励/配合——这点与谈恋爱一样，要经一定时间的磨合和考验，才能看得 清； 保证每个人的弱点 能有效弥补，即便是高手全才也不多，对其弱点如果没有合适的人弥补，结果可能还不如实 力平均的队伍； 要能顶得住本校其他队的竞争 ，比如挖人、争导师、抢机房等等——人才太多没办法，哎～

美赛6种题型及通关详解
所谓6种题型，提示了部分题目的内容，但如果作为选题依据，作用非常有限。
如果是为了更好的选题，搞清楚MCM与ICM的区别，可能更有帮助。
选哪道题不是特别重要，重要的是应该“尽快”选题。
竞赛时间是固定的，选题的时间越长，做题的时间越少。
选题多花1小时，意味着建模和写论文的时间就少了1小时。
能获什么奖主要看实力，其次看运气。
准备越充分，胜算越大。
如果不想碰运气的话，早点动手准备吧。
六种题型怎么理解首先，MCM/ICM（2016年起）每年共有6道题，不是6种题，MCM是ABC三题，ICM是DEF三题。
对6道题目类型的描述，不是严格的划分，角度和依据都不相同。
continuous和discrete是指模型的类型，data insights是指问题数据的特征，operations research/network science和environmental science是指问题涉及到的学科，而environmental science和policy又是指问题本身的背景。
这不是按照同一标准对题目进行划分，之间有重叠。
最显然的，如果认为continuous和discrete是互补的，那么其他4道题目应该可以分别归入其中某一类。
其次，这些一两个词的描述过于笼统、宽泛，无法体现题目的具体特征，特别是A、B、F 题的描述，提供的信息非常少，说了几乎等于没说。
continuous、discrete把所有的模型全包括了。
policy范围也太广，人类主宰世界，方方面面都可能涉及政策问题。
而且F题也是2016年新增加的，只有2016年一年的题目（难民问题），暂时还看不出来什么规律。
而C题和D题的特征相对具体一些。
比如，针对2016年起MCM新增加的C题，COMAP （Consortium for Mathematics and Its Applications）专门发布了一份文档（中文简介）说明其特征。
概括起来，MCM的C题与数据有关，虽然称不上大数据，但压缩包也在100MB 以上，与MCM/ICM其他题目相比，数据量算是大的（实际上以往MCM/ICM的题目很少给数据），这就要求选这一题的参赛队要熟悉数据处理的基本方法，包括预处理、后处理等，并掌握相应的编程技能或是相关软件的使用方法。

All communication regarding the contest will be via the contest website.6.You will return to the contest web site during the contest to enter andconfirm information about your team, and to print out your team’s ControlSheet and Summary Sheets, which you will use when preparing your team’ssolution packet. Details on these steps follow in the instructions below.B. Choose your team members:1.You must choose your team members before the contest begins at 8PMEST on Thursday February 10, 2011. Once the contest begins you maynot add or change any team members (you may, however, remove a teammember, if he or she decides not to participate).2.Each team may consist of a maximum of three students.3.Each student may participate on only one team.4.Team members must be enrolled in school at the time of the contest, butthey need not be full-time students. Team members must be enrolled at thesame school as the advisor and other team members.5.II. AFTER THE CONTEST BEGINS:A. View the contest problems via the contest web site:Teams can view the contest problems via the contest web site when the contest begins at 8PM EST on Thursday February 10, 2011:1.The contest problems will become available precisely at 8PM EST onThursday February 10, 2011; team members can view them by visiting/undergraduate/contests/mcm. No password willbe needed to view the problems; simply go to the contest web site at or after8PM EST on Thursday, February 10, 2010 and you will see a link to viewthe problems.2.If you cannot access our main web site at that time, go to our mirror site at/mcm or click here. If you cannot accesseither site, there may be a problem with your local Internet connection.Contact your local Internet service provider to resolve the issue.B. Choose a problem:Each team must choose one problem according to the following rules: •MCM teams must choose either Problem A or Problem B; an MCM team may submit a solution to only one of the problems. (MCM teamsshould NOT choose Problem C.)•ICM teams must choose Problem C. There is no choice for ICM teams.(ICM teams should NOT choose Problem A or Problem B.)C. Teams prepare solutions:1.Teams may use any inanimate source of data or materials: computers,software, references, web sites, books, etc. ALL SOURCES USED MUST BE CREDITED. Failure to credit a source will result in a team beingdisqualified from the competition.2.Team members may not seek help from or discuss the problem with theiradvisor or anyone else, except other members of the same team. Input in any form from anyone other than student team members is strictly forbidden.This includes email, telephone contact, and personal conversation,communication via web chat or other question-answer systems, or any other form of communication.3.Partial solutions are acceptable. There is no passing or failing cut-off score,and numerical scores will not be assigned. The MCM/ICM contest judgesare primarily interested in the team’s approach and methods.4.Summary Sheet: The summary is an essential part of your MCM/ICMpaper. The judges place considerable weight on the summary, and winning papers are often distinguished from other papers based on the quality of the summary.To write a good summary, imagine that a reader will choose whether to read the body of the paper based on your summary: Your concise presentation in the summary should inspire a reader to learn about the details of your work.Thus, a summary should clearly describe your approach to the problem and, most prominently, your most important conclusions. Summaries that aremere restatements of the contest problem, or are a cut-and-paste boilerplate from the Introduction are generally considered to be weak.Each Summary Sheet should include:∙Restatement and clarification of the problem: State in your own words what you are going to do.∙Explain assumptions and rationale/justification: Emphasize the assumptions that bear on the problem. Clearly list all variables used inyour model.∙Include your model design and justification for type model used or developed.∙Describe model testing and sensitivity analysis, including error analysis, etc.∙Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of your model or approach.5.The judges will evaluate the quality of your writing in the Solution Paper:∙Conciseness and organization are extremely important.∙Key statements should present major ideas and results.∙Present a clarification or restatement of the problem, as appropriate.∙Present a clear exposition of all variables, assumptions, and hypotheses.∙Present an analysis of the problem, including the motivation or justification for the model that is used.∙Include a design of the model.∙Discuss how the model could be tested, including error analysis and stability (conditioning, sensitivity, etc.).∙Discuss any apparent strengths or weaknesses in your model or approach.6.Papers must be typed and in English.7.The solution must consist entirely of written text, and possibly figures,charts, or other written material, on paper only. No non-paper supportmaterials such as computer files or disks will be accepted.8.The Solution Paper must display the team control number and thepage number at the top of every page; for example, use the followingpage header on each page:Team # 321 Page 6 of 139.The names of the students, advisor, or institution should NOT appear on anypage of the print solution or electronic solution. The solution should notcontain any identifying information other than the team control number.10.Failure to adhere to any preparation rule is grounds for teamdisqualification.D. Print Summary Sheet and Control Sheet:After the contest begins at 8PM EST on Thursday February 10, 2011, and while the teams are preparing their solutions, the advisor should:1.Login to the contest web site (go to/undergraduate/contests/mcm. Click on Advisor Login, then enter your email address and password).2.Enter the team member names and confirm that each name is spelledcorrectly. This determines how the names will appear on the contestcertificates. COMAP will not make any changes or reprint certificates for any reason.3.Specify the problem that your team has chosen to solve.4.Print one copy of the Control Sheet.5.Print one copy of the team Summary Sheet.6.III. BEFORE THE CONTEST ENDS:A. Send electronic copy of Solution Paper by email:1.Each team is required to submit an electronic copy of its solution paper byemail to solutions@. Any team member or the advisor maysubmit this email.a. Your email MUST be received at COMAP by the submissiondeadline of 8PM EST on February 14, 2011.b. Failure by a team to submit a solution via email by 8PM EST onFebruary 14, 2011 constitutes a violation of the contest rules and willresult in that team’s disqualification.c. No further modifications, enhancements, additions, or improvementsmay be made to the team’s solution paper after this email submission.Each team’s electron ic submission will be cross-checked forconsistency with their paper submission. Any changes to the paperversion will constitute a violation of the contest rules and may result indisqualification.2.In the subject line of your email write: COMAP and your t eam’s controlnumber. For example:Subject: COMAP 2222e your team’s control number as the name of your file attachments.AP will accept only an Adobe PDF or Microsoft Word file of yoursolution. DO NOT include programs or software with your email as theywill not be used in the judging process. Limit one solution per email. Thenames of the students, advisor, or institution should NOT appear onany page of the electronic solution.5.See the rules for submitting two (2) paper copies and CD via mail below.6.IV. WHEN THE CONTEST ENDS:A.

数学建模美赛须知
加强数学建模综合能力培养——数学中国2011年美赛工作总结华晓帅（数学中国网站CEO）马壮（数学中国网站站长）2011年2月15日——2月19日，美国大学生数学建模竞赛与美国大学生交叉学科数学建模竞赛如期举行，作为中国最大的数学建模交流基地“数学中国”来讲，与参加美赛的中国内地同学共同度过了四天四夜。
对于本次竞赛，数学中国网站作了以下的总结。
希望能同大家交流一下比赛经验。
一、保持新闻的敏感度：在每次举办国内外数学建模竞赛之前，我们数学中国都事先做好心理准备，压一下比赛题目。
在春节前，数学中国论坛发表了《2011年数学建模十大热门研究课题》，第一个研究课题便压中了美赛的A题。
当然这里不是教大家如何猜题目。
我们想告诉大家要多关心国内外的时事、政治、经济。
为什么这样讲呢？道理很简单，学习数学建模，参加竞赛的最终目的不是拿奖，而是为了掌握一门社会科学技能。
大家学习数学建模后，可以用数学的眼光看问题。
比如说这次的A题，2007年2月联合国政府间气候变化专门委员会（IPCC）发表了第四次评估报告，在国际上引起了轩然大波。
报告预测指出，从人类工业时代开始到2100年，全球平均气温的“最可能升高幅度”是1.8至4℃，海平面升高幅度是19至58厘米，北冰洋的海冰将在本世纪后半段融化消失。
这个报告引出的问题很多，事实也得到了验证。
比如2007年至2011年的冬天，我们国家遭受了50年不遇的特大雪灾，美国南部又一次遭遇了飓风。
有证据显示这些都可能是由全球气候变暖引发的极端恶劣天气。
全球气候变暖考察的问题很多，A题选取了一个佛州的例子，意在让全球气候变暖得到大家足够的重视。
当然所有的时事不可能在一次竞赛里全部体现出来。
但是当大家看新闻的时候，应该多思考一下如何使用数学模型来处理新闻热点中提到的问题，经常和队员交流一下思路，增强对新闻的敏感度，提高对数学建模的应用能力。
我们数学中国论坛将在近期成立“数学建模研究组”（暂定名称）。
特别提醒参加美赛的同学注意以下几点
特别提醒参加美赛的同学注意以下几点
特别提醒参加美赛的同学注意以下几点:
(1)认真阅读参赛须知，遵守竞赛规则，竞赛期间不要在互网上讨论竞赛问题，主办方有监控。
(2)注意自己队的控制号(参赛队号)不能写错，错了将不被识别，也不能参加评奖。
(3)提交电子版论文的邮件主题一定要与你们的控制号-致,COMAP 是按邮件主题由计算机自动识别处理电子版论文(非人工处理)，否则将不能被识别处理。
(4)因论文的初评是在网上进行的，评阅电子版论文，所以在电子版论文中除了控制号以外不能含有参赛队的其他信息,特别注意不能有包含参赛队信息的控制页，即控制页禁止放在电子版论文中，也不要将控制页电子版随邮件发送，控制页只需要打印一份随纸制版论文邮寄给COMAP即可。
(5)若需要压缩软件打包，一定要采用通用的压缩工具压缩，不要用国内某些公司推出的压缩工具，如“快压”等。
(6)如有多个文件，- -定打包压缩成-一个以控制号命名的文件，作为邮件的附件发送给COMAP。
上传附件时，注意不要用某些邮件服务商提供的超大附件或云附件功能,因为用这些功能发送的邮件附件不能
上传到接收方的服务器系统中，系统不能处理，将按未成功提交论文处理。
(7)提交论文的邮件成功发送一-次即可，不要重复发送，更不要重复发送不同内容的论文。
-般接收方不会马上回复，只要你发送后提示发送成功，稍候可以在注册系统中查询对方是否成功接收的信息。
