Informative path planning algorithms are of paramount importance in applications like disaster management to efficiently gather information through a priori unknown environments. This is, however, a complex problem that involves finding a…
We develop an approach for solving rooted orienteering problems with category constraints as found in tourist trip planning and logistics. It is based on expanding partial solutions in a systematic way, prioritizing promising ones, which…
This paper provides efficient solutions to maximize profit for commercial ridesharing services, under a pricing model with detour-based discounts for passengers. We propose greedy heuristics for real-time ride matching that offer different…
Tourism is an exciting thing to be visited by people in the world. Search for attractive and popular places can be done through social media. Data from social media or websites can be used as a reference to find current travel trends and…
Last two decades, the problem of robotic mapping has made a lot of progress in the research community. However, since the data provided by the sensor still contains noise, how to obtain an accurate map is still an open problem. In this…
Tourism is a major contributor to global carbon emissions and over-tourism, creating an urgent need for recommender systems that not only inform but also gently steer users toward more sustainable travel decisions. Such choices, however,…
We study the problem of computing all Pareto-optimal journeys in a public transit network regarding the two criteria of arrival time and number of transfers taken. In recent years, great advances have been made in making public transit…
Orienteering problems (OPs) are a variant of the well-known prize-collecting traveling salesman problem, where the salesman needs to choose a subset of cities to visit within a given deadline. OPs and their extensions with stochastic travel…
Modern tourism in the 21st century is facing numerous challenges. Among these the rapidly growing number of tourists visiting space-limited regions like historical cities, museums and bottlenecks such as bridges is one of the biggest. In…
Owing to the expeditious growth in the information and communication technologies, smart cities have raised the expectations in terms of efficient functioning and management. One key aspect of residents' daily comfort is assured through…
This paper presents a search-based partial motion planner to generate dynamically feasible trajectories for car-like robots in highly dynamic environments. The planner searches for smooth, safe, and near-time-optimal trajectories by…
This paper presents an empirical performance analysis of three project scheduling algorithms dealing with maximizing projects' net present value with unrestricted resources. The selected algorithms, being the most recently cited in the…
In bicycle share networks, the balance between demand and supply is disrupted. As a result, shared resources are wasted and management costs for operators increase. Therefore, in this paper, we analyze the cycle relocation problem from the…
