Evaluating and optimizing policies in the presence of unobserved confounders is a problem of growing interest in offline reinforcement learning. Using conventional methods for offline RL in the presence of confounding can not only lead to…
We introduce the Block Rearrangement Problem (BRaP), a challenging component of large warehouse management which involves rearranging storage blocks within dense grids to achieve a goal state. We formally define the BRaP as a graph search…
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…
At modern warehouses, mobile robots transport packages and drop them into collection bins/chutes based on shipping destinations grouped by, e.g., the ZIP code. System throughput, measured as the number of packages sorted per unit of time,…
This paper presents a new branch-and-cut algorithm based on infeasible path elimination for the three-dimensional loading capacitated vehicle routing problem (3L-CVRP) with different loading problem variants. We show that a previously…
Packing a given sequence of items into as few bins as possible in an online fashion is a widely studied problem. We improve lower bounds for packing boxes into bins in two or more dimensions, both for general algorithms for squares and…
We develop a new class of physics-informed neural network approximations for the stationary Oseen equations based on stability-consistent loss constructions. In contrast to standard PINN formulations, which are typically heuristic, the…
This paper studies the well-posedness and regularity of safe stabilizing optimization-based controllers for control-affine systems in the presence of model uncertainty. When the system dynamics contain unknown parameters, a finite set of…
We explore approximation algorithms for the $d$-dimensional geometric bin packing problem ($d$BP). Caprara (MOR 2008) gave a harmonic-based algorithm for $d$BP having an asymptotic approximation ratio (AAR) of $T_{\infty}^{d-1}$ (where…
The ability to achieve and maintain inverted poses is essential for unlocking the full agility of miniature blimp robots (MBRs). However, developing reliable inverted control strategies for MBRs remains challenging due to their complex and…
Many combinatorial optimization problems such as the bin packing and multiple knapsack problems involve assigning a set of discrete objects to multiple containers. These problems can be used to model task and resource allocation problems in…
Expansion of today's underwater scenarios and missions necessitates the requestion for robust decision making of the Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV); hence, design an efficient decision making framework is essential for maximizing the…
Transportation occupies one-third of the amount in the logistics costs, and accordingly transportation systems largely influence the performance of the logistics system. This work presents an adaptive data-driven innovative modular approach…
Model-based human pose estimation is currently approached through two different paradigms. Optimization-based methods fit a parametric body model to 2D observations in an iterative manner, leading to accurate image-model alignments, but are…
Bin Packing problems have been widely studied because of their broad applications in different domains. Known as a set of NP-hard problems, they have different vari- ations and many heuristics have been proposed for obtaining approximate…
The multi-depot vehicle scheduling problem (MDVSP) is a critical planning challenge for transit agencies. We introduce a novel approach to MDVSP by incorporating service reliability through chance-constrained programming (CCP), targeting…
In this paper, we investigate the online parcel assignment (OPA) problem, in which each stochastically generated parcel needs to be assigned to a candidate route for delivery to minimize the total cost subject to certain business…
Cutting and packing problems are fundamental in manufacturing and logistics, as they aim to minimize waste and improve efficiency. The Cutting Stock Problem (CSP) concerns material cutting, whereas the Bin Packing Problem (BPP) concerns…
This paper considers the problem of rearrangement planning, i.e finding a sequence of manipulation actions that displace multiple objects from an initial configuration to a given goal configuration. Rearrangement is a critical skill for…
Consolidation of loose packages into transport units is a fundamental activity offered by logistics service-providers. Moving the transport units instead of loose packages is faster (with one movement only, multiple packages are loaded…
