We present an exact method, based on an arc-flow formulation with side constraints, for solving bin packing and cutting stock problems --- including multi-constraint variants --- by simply representing all the patterns in a very compact…
VPSolver is a vector packing solver based on an arc-flow formulation with graph compression. In this paper, we present the algorithm introduced in VPSolver 3.0.0 for building compressed arc-flow models for the multiple-choice vector packing…
We consider a variant of bin packing called multiple-choice vector bin packing. In this problem we are given a set of items, where each item can be selected in one of several $D$-dimensional incarnations. We are also given $T$ bin types,…
This paper focuses on exact approaches for the Colored Bin Packing Problem (CBPP), a generalization of the classical one-dimensional Bin Packing Problem in which each item has, in addition to its length, a color, and no two items of the…
We study the generalized multidimensional bin packing problem (GVBP) that generalizes both geometric packing and vector packing. Here, we are given $n$ rectangular items where the $i^{\textrm{th}}$ item has width $w(i)$, height $h(i)$, and…
We solve the Bin Packing problem in $O^*(2^k)$ time, where $k$ is the number of items less or equal to one third of the bin capacity. This parameter measures the distance from the polynomially solvable case of only large (i.e., greater than…
In this paper we propose an improved approximation scheme for the Vector Bin Packing problem (VBP), based on the combination of (near-)optimal solution of the Linear Programming (LP) relaxation and a greedy (modified first-fit) heuristic.…
We study a dynamic vector bin packing (DVBP) problem. We show hardness for shrinking arbitrary DVBP instances to size polynomial in the number of request types or in the maximal number of requests overlapping in time. We also present a…
We study the $d$-dimensional Vector Bin Packing ($d$VBP) problem, a generalization of Bin Packing with central applications in resource allocation and scheduling. In $d$VBP, we are given a set of items, each of which is characterized by a…
The Bin Packing Problem (BPP) is a well-established combinatorial optimization (CO) problem. Since it has many applications in our daily life, e.g. logistics and resource allocation, people are seeking efficient bin packing algorithms. On…
Bin packing problem examines the minimum number of identical bins needed to pack a set of items of various weights. This problem arises in various areas of the artificial intelligence demanding derivation of the exact solutions in the…
Bin Packing with Conflicts (BPC) are problems in which items with compatibility constraints must be packed in the least number of bins, not exceeding the capacity of the bins and ensuring that non-conflicting items are packed in each bin.…
This paper addresses the Quadratic Multiple Constraints Variable-Sized Bin Packing Problem (QMC-VSBPP), a challenging combinatorial optimization problem that generalizes the classical bin packing problem by incorporating multiple capacity…
Virtual machine placement is a crucial challenge in cloud computing for efficiently utilizing physical machine resources in data centers. Virtual machine placement can be formulated as a MinUsageTime Dynamic Vector Bin Packing (DVBP)…
The Colored Bin Packing Problem (CBPP) is a generalization of the Bin Packing Problem (BPP). The CBPP consists of packing a set of items, each with a weight and a color, in bins of limited capacity, minimizing the number of used bins and…
We study three fundamental three-dimensional (3D) geometric packing problems: 3D (Geometric) Bin Packing (3D-BP), 3D Strip Packing (3D-SP), and Minimum Volume Bounding Box (3D-MVBB), where given a set of 3D (rectangular) cuboids, the goal…
The Variable Sized Bin Packing Problem has a wide range of application areas including packing, scheduling, and manufacturing. Given a list of items and variable sized bin types, the objective is to minimize the total size of the used bins.…
In this article, we introduce and study the Quadratic Bin Packing Problem (QBPP), which generalizes the classical bin packing problem by introducing a fixed cost for each used bin and a pairwise cost (or profit) incurred whenever two items…
The article proposes a heuristic approximation approach to the bin packing problem under multiple objectives. In addition to the traditional objective of minimizing the number of bins, the heterogeneousness of the elements in each bin is…
In Topological Data Analysis, a common way of quantifying the shape of data is to use a persistence diagram (PD). PDs are multisets of points in $\mathbb{R}^2$ computed using tools of algebraic topology. However, this multi-set structure…
