This paper addresses a new vehicle routing problem that simultaneously involves time windows, split collection and linear weight-related cost, which is a generalization of the split delivery vehicle routing problem with time windows…
We consider vehicle-routing problems (VRPs) that incorporate the notion of {\em regret} of a client, which is a measure of the waiting time of a client relative to its shortest-path distance from the depot. Formally, we consider both the…
The recently presented idea to learn heuristics for combinatorial optimization problems is promising as it can save costly development. However, to push this idea towards practical implementation, we need better models and better ways of…
The Moving Target Vehicle Routing Problem with Obstacles (MT-VRP-O) seeks trajectories for several agents that collectively intercept a set of moving targets. Each target has one or more time windows where it must be visited, and the agents…
The orienteering problem with time windows and variable profits (OPTWVP) is common in many real-world applications and involves continuous time variables. Current approaches fail to develop an efficient solver for this orienteering problem…
We consider a cooperative vehicle routing problem for surveillance and reconnaissance missions with communication constraints between the vehicles. We propose a framework which involves a ground vehicle and an aerial vehicle; the vehicles…
An efficient method for computing solutions to the Optimal Transportation (OT) problem with a wide class of cost functions is presented. The standard linear programming (LP) discretization of the continuous problem becomes intractible for…
For many kinds of vehicle routing problems (VRPs), a popular heuristic approach involves constructing a Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) solution, referred to as a long tour, then partitioning segments of the solution into routes for…
Problems affecting the transport of people or goods are plentiful in industry and commerce and they also appear to be at the origin of much more complex problems. In recent years, the logistics and transport sector keeps growing supported…
The Travelling Thief Problem (TTP) is a challenging combinatorial optimization problem that attracts many scholars. The TTP interconnects two well-known NP-hard problems: the Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) and the 0-1 Knapsack Problem…
We offer a new in-depth investigation of global path planning (GPP) for unmanned ground vehicles, an autonomous mining sampling robot named ROMIE. GPP is essential for ROMIE's optimal performance, which is translated into solving the…
Vehicle routing problems (VRPs), which can be found in numerous real-world applications, have been an important research topic for several decades. Recently, the neural combinatorial optimization (NCO) approach that leverages a…
This work focuses on exact methods for a Simultaneous Vehicle Routing and Crew Scheduling Problem in long-haul transport. Pickup-and-delivery requests with time windows must be fullfiled over a multi-day planning horizon. Unlike some…
The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is one of the most prominent combinatorial optimization problems. Given a complete graph G = (V, E) and non-negative distances d for every edge, the TSP asks for a shortest tour through all vertices with…
We give a probabilistic analysis of the unit-demand Euclidean capacitated vehicle routing problem in the random setting, where the input distribution consists of $n$ unit-demand customers modeled as independent, identically distributed…
Combinatorial optimization (CO) problems are traditionally addressed using Operations Research (OR) methods, including metaheuristics. In this study, we introduce a demand selection problem for the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) with an…
The problem Orienteering asks whether there exists a walk which visits a number of sites without exceeding some fuel budget. In the variant of the problem we consider, the cost of each edge in the walk is dependent on the time we depart one…
We present a unified framework for minimizing average completion time for many seemingly disparate online scheduling problems, such as the traveling repairperson problems (TRP), dial-a-ride problems (DARP), and scheduling on unrelated…
This paper presents an efficient algorithm, naming Centralized Searching and Decentralized Optimization (CSDO), to find feasible solution for large-scale Multi-Vehicle Trajectory Planning (MVTP) problem. Due to the intractable growth of…
The traveling officer problem (TOP) is a challenging stochastic optimization task. In this problem, a parking officer is guided through a city equipped with parking sensors to fine as many parking offenders as possible. A major challenge in…
