A Variable Neighborhood Search heuristic for rolling stock rescheduling

open access: yesEURO Journal on Transportation and Logistics, 2021
We present a Variable Neighborhood Search heuristic for the rolling stock rescheduling problem. Rolling stock rescheduling is needed when a disruption leads to cancellations in the timetable.

Improved Firefly Algorithm with Variable Neighborhood Search for Data Clustering

open access: yesمجلة بغداد للعلوم, 2022
Among the metaheuristic algorithms, population-based algorithms are an explorative search algorithm superior to the local search algorithm in terms of exploring the search space to find globally optimal solutions.

On Neighborhood Tree Search [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We consider the neighborhood tree induced by alternating the use of different neighborhood structures within a local search descent. We investigate the issue of designing a search strategy operating at the neighborhood tree level by exploring different ...
