arXiv:2606. 01987v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We show that the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) can be reformulated as a Graph Edit Distance (GED) maximization problem.
arXiv:2607. 13373v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Column generation (CG) is central to many large-scale optimization algorithms, including branch-price-and-cut methods for vehicle routing problems, but unstable dual solutions can substantially slow its convergence.
arXiv:2602. 07216v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Neural combinatorial optimization (NCO) trains fast heuristics for routing problems, but planners often need more than a single solve: they ask which stop to drop, which transition to preserve, or which subset of stops to remove if a route is infeasible.
arXiv:2503. 03137v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Constructive neural combinatorial optimization (NCO) offers a promising paradigm for solving vehicle routing problems (VRPs) by directly learning to construct approximate optimal solutions, thereby reducing reliance on expert knowledge for algorithm design.
arXiv:2505. 13986v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has shown promise for combinatorial optimization problems on graphs by learning heuristics that generalize across instances.
arXiv:2607. 18632v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automated Algorithm Selection (AS) aims to improve problem-solving performance by selecting, for each problem instance, the most suitable algorithm from a predefined portfolio.
Automated Algorithm Selection (AS) aims to improve problem-solving performance by selecting, for each problem instance, the most suitable algorithm from a predefined portfolio. This is particularly relevant to the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), where solver performance is strongly instance-dependent.
arXiv:2608. 14140v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The problem of route optimization with realistic constraints is becoming extremely relevant in the face of global urban population growth.
arXiv:2509. 23413v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multi-task neural routing solvers have emerged as a promising paradigm for their ability to solve multiple vehicle routing problems (VRPs) using a single model.
arXiv:2607. 04487v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural autoregressive solvers for the Multi-Attribute Vehicle Routing Problem (MAVRP) reach competitive cost but offer no per-step justification, a problem when dispatchers must validate, accept, or compare them.
arXiv:2602. 00488v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Solving large-scale capacitated vehicle routing problems (CVRP) is hindered by the high complexity of classical heuristics and the limited generalization of neural solvers.
arXiv:2607. 14176v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reliable, low-latency uplink connectivity is a key requirement for C-V2X networks in dense urban environments, where fast channel variations and blockages often degrade direct vehicle-to-infrastructure links.
arXiv:2606. 31820v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large-scale capacitated vehicle routing problems (CVRPs) are commonly addressed using cluster-first route-second (CFRS) approaches that split a routing instance into smaller, computationally tractable subproblems.
