Ship Collision Avoidance by Distributed Tabu Search [PDF]

open access: yesTransNav, 2015
More than 90% of world trade is transported by sea. The size and speed of ships is rapidly increasing in order to boost economic efficiency. If ships collide, the damage and cost can be astronomical.

Bayesian Network Structural Learning Using Adaptive Genetic Algorithm with Varying Population Size

open access: yesMachine Learning and Knowledge Extraction, 2023
A Bayesian network (BN) is a probabilistic graphical model that can model complex and nonlinear relationships. Its structural learning from data is an NP-hard problem because of its search-space size. One method to perform structural learning is a search

Heuristics for the traveling repairman problem with profits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the traveling repairman problem with profits, a repairman (also known as the server) visits a subset of nodes in order to collect time-dependent profits. The objective consists of maximizing the total collected revenue.

A Reinforced Tabu Search Approach for 2D Strip Packing: [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper discusses a particular “packing” problem, namely the two dimensional strip packing problem, where a finite set of objects have to be located in a strip of fixed width and infinite height.

On‐Time Meal Delivery Assisted by Drone Resupply

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ensuring timely delivery is crucial with the increasing competition in online meal delivery services. This requires the industry to adopt new technologies and the corresponding operational models, including the use of drones. Concerning the desired features of meal delivery, such as safety and reliability, we propose an operational model that ...

A particle swarm optimization algorithm for optimal car-call allocation in elevator group control systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
High-rise buildings require the installation of complex elevator group control systems (EGCS). In vertical transportation, when a passenger makes a hall call by pressing a landing call button installed at the floor and located near the cars of the ...

Self‐Service and Home Delivery Combined: Coordinating the Route of a Mobile Parcel Locker With the Delivery Tasks of Its Human Driver

open access: yesNetworks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In response to the increasing volume of parcels, last‐mile delivery innovations are exploring the integration of multiple delivery modes. The most prominent examples are delivery vans that, next to being the base for the delivery tasks of their human drivers, also function as mobile launching platforms for drones or autonomous delivery robots.

Population-Based Redundancy Control in Genetic Algorithms: Enhancing Max-Cut Optimization

open access: yesMathematics
The max-cut problem is a well-known topic in combinatorial optimization, with a wide range of practical applications. Given its NP-hard nature, heuristic approaches—such as genetic algorithms, tabu search, and harmony search—have been extensively ...

Camels as a Climate‐Resilient Linchpin for Sustainable Development in Global Drylands

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Camels represent a significant, yet underutilized, asset for advancing integrated sustainable development in the world's expanding drylands. Previous reviews have examined camels' physiology, milk composition, or pastoral systems in isolation; this review examines their potential as a climate‐resilient linchpin for food systems by synthesizing
