This project is an educational and research-oriented implementation that benchmarks and compares different metaheuristic algorithms for solving VRPTW problems. The VRPTW is a classic NP-hard ...

Individual sensor systems have limitations in the complex task of classifying shredded tobacco. This study aims to overcome these limitations by developing a novel evolutionary algorithm-based feature ...

This study focuses on the integration of quantum computing and artificial intelligence, proposing a multi-task optimisation framework based on the quantum annealing algorithm to address the ...

ABSTRACT: This research investigates the impact of the road network topological structure on facility location modeling. We create four types of road networks, i.e., the radial, the grid, the ring, ...

ABSTRACT: The Tabu Search heuristic can be used to optimise the WET (waste to energy technology). Developments were made to the basic Tabu Search to adapt it to the optimisation problem. This paper ...

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to explore the production decision-making problem based on simulated annealing algorithm and genetic algorithm, especially for the design and optimisation of ...
