We study the uniform $2$-dimensional vector multiple knapsack (2VMK) problem, a natural variant of multiple knapsack arising in real-world applications such as virtual machine placement. The input for 2VMK is a set of items, each associated…
In this paper we consider the classical maximum set packing problem where set cardinality is upper bounded by $k$. We show how to design a variant of a polynomial-time local search algorithm with performance guarantee $(k+2)/3$. This local…
In the Two-Bar Charts Packing Problem (2-BCPP), it is required to pack the bar charts (BCs) consisting of two bars into the horizontal unit-height strip of minimal length. The bars may move vertically within the strip, but it is forbidden…
The multiple knapsack problem (MKP) generalizes the classical knapsack problem by assigning items to multiple knapsacks subject to capacity constraints. It is used to model many real-world resource allocation and scheduling problems. In…
Bounded Max-Sum (BMS) is a message-passing algorithm that provides approximation solution to a specific form of de-centralized coordination problems, namely Distributed Constrained Optimization Problems (DCOPs). In particular, BMS algorithm…
Autonomous navigation often requires the simultaneous optimization of multiple objectives. The most common approach scalarizes these into a single cost function using a weighted sum, but this method is unable to find all possible trade-offs…
The classic problem of constrained pathfinding is a well-studied, yet challenging, topic in AI with a broad range of applications in various areas such as communication and transportation. The Weight Constrained Shortest Path Problem…
Multi-armed bandit problems are the predominant theoretical model of exploration-exploitation tradeoffs in learning, and they have countless applications ranging from medical trials, to communication networks, to Web search and advertising.…
Submodular maximization has been a central topic in theoretical computer science and combinatorial optimization over the last decades. Plenty of well-performed approximation algorithms have been designed for the problem over a variety of…
In this paper, we propose a robust optimization-based heuristic algorithm for the chance-constrained binary knapsack problem (CKP). We assume that the weights of items are independent normally distributed. By utilizing the properties of the…
Data is undoubtedly becoming a commodity like oil, land, and labor in the 21st century. Although there have been many successful marketplaces for data trading, the existing data marketplaces lack consideration of the case where buyers want…
In this work, we consider the Submodular Maximization under Knapsack (SMK) constraint problem over the ground set of size $n$. The problem recently attracted a lot of attention due to its applications in various domains of combination…
The Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) is one of the most popular Combinatorial Optimization Problem. It is well solicited for the large variety of applications that it can solve, but also for its difficulty to find optimal solutions. One of…
In the \textsc{2-Dimensional Knapsack} problem (2DK) we are given a square knapsack and a collection of $n$ rectangular items with integer sizes and profits. Our goal is to find the most profitable subset of items that can be packed…
Benchmark instances for the unbounded knapsack problem are typically generated according to specific criteria within a given constant range $R$, and these instances can be referred to as the unbounded knapsack problem with bounded…
Online knapsack problem is considered, where items arrive in a sequential fashion that have two attributes; value and weight. Each arriving item has to be accepted or rejected on its arrival irrevocably. The objective is to maximize the sum…
Neighborhood search is a cornerstone of state-of-the-art traveling salesman and vehicle routing metaheuristics. While neighborhood exploration procedures are well developed for problems with individual services, their counterparts for…
The Knapsack Problem (KP) and its generalization, the Bounded Knapsack Problem (BKP), are classical NP-hard problems with numerous practical applications, and despite being introduced over 25 years ago, the solvers COMBO and BOUKNAP remain…
The purpose of this paper is to solve the 0-1 $k$-item quadratic knapsack problem $(kQKP)$, a problem of maximizing a quadratic function subject to two linear constraints. We propose an exact method based on semidefinite optimization. The…
This paper introduces the Packing While Traveling problem as a new non-linear knapsack problem. Given are a set of cities that have a set of items of distinct profits and weights and a vehicle that may collect the items when visiting all…
