A Deep Reinforcement Learning Algorithm for the Vehicle Routing Problem with Stochastic Demands and Outsourcing

arXiv:2607. 16875v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce the vehicle routing problem with stochastic demands and outsourcing options (VRP-SDO), in which a logistics service provider partitions customer requests into customers outsourced to a common carrier and customers committed to its fixed fleet.

GREAT: A Graph Edge Attention Network for the Electric Vehicle Routing Problem with Asymmetric Costs

The paper introduces GREAT, a Graph Edge Attention Network that operates directly on edge space to handle asymmetric energy costs in the Electric Vehicle Routing Problem (EVRP). Integrated into a reinforcement learning framework, GREAT jointly optimizes routing and charging decisions, outperforming a strong HGS-based heuristic by up to 8.78% in energy savings and reducing runtime by a factor of 60. It also shows competitive performance against a custom adaptive large neighborhood search and achieves state‑of‑the‑art results on other asymmetric routing benchmarks such as TSP, CVRP, and Orienteering.
