PyVRP: A high-performance VRP solver package

NA Wouda, L Lan, W Kool - INFORMS Journal on Computing, 2024 - pubsonline.informs.org
We introduce PyVRP, a Python package that implements hybrid genetic search in a state-of-
the-art vehicle routing problem (VRP) solver. The package is designed for the VRP with time …

The EURO meets NeurIPS 2022 vehicle routing competition

W Kool, L Bliek, D Numeroso, Y Zhang… - NeurIPS 2022 …, 2023 - proceedings.mlr.press
Solving vehicle routing problems (VRPs) is an essential task for many industrial

An iterative sample scenario approach for the dynamic dispatch waves problem

L Lan, JMH van Doorn, NA Wouda… - Transportation …, 2024 - pubsonline.informs.org
A challenge in same-day delivery operations is that delivery requests are typically not known
beforehand, but are instead revealed dynamically during the day. This uncertainty …

A regret policy for the dynamic vehicle routing problem with time windows

P Dieter - International Conference on Computational Logistics, 2023 - Springer
In this work, we present a regret policy for the dynamic vehicle routing problem with time
windows (DVRPTW) in which customer order arrivals are revealed over a day and which …

Hybrid genetic search for dynamic vehicle routing with time windows

M Ghannam, A Gleixner - arxiv preprint arxiv:2307.11800, 2023 - arxiv.org
The dynamic vehicle routing problem with time windows (DVRPTW) is a generalization of
the classical VRPTW to an online setting, where customer data arrives in batches and real …
