Dynamic programming with approximation function for nurse scheduling (2016)
Journal Article
Shi, P., & Landa-Silva, D. (2016). Dynamic programming with approximation function for nurse scheduling. Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, 10122, 269-280. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-51469-7_23

Although dynamic programming could ideally solve any combinatorial optimization problem, the curse of dimensionality of the search space seriously limits its application to large optimization problems. For example, only few papers in the literature h... Read More about Dynamic programming with approximation function for nurse scheduling.

An application programming interface with increased performance for optimisation problems data (2016)
Journal Article
Pinheiro, R. L., Landa-Silva, D., Qu, R., Constantino, A. A., & Yanaga, E. (in press). An application programming interface with increased performance for optimisation problems data. Journal of Management Analytics, 3(4), https://doi.org/10.1080/23270012.2016.1233514

An optimisation problem can have many forms and variants. It may consider different objectives, constraints, and variables. For that reason, providing a general application programming interface (API) to handle the problem data efficiently in all sce...

Decomposition techniques with mixed integer programming and heuristics for home healthcare planning (2016)
Journal Article
Laesanklang, W., & Landa-Silva, D. (2017). Decomposition techniques with mixed integer programming and heuristics for home healthcare planning. Annals of Operations Research, 256(1), 93-127. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10479-016-2352-8

We tackle home healthcare planning scenarios in the UK using decomposition methods that incorporate mixed integer programming solvers and heuristics. Home healthcare planning is a difficult problem that integrates aspects from scheduling and routing....

Hyper-volume evolutionary algorithm (2016)
Journal Article
Le, K. N., & Landa-Silva, D. (2016). Hyper-volume evolutionary algorithm

We propose a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA), named the Hyper-volume Evolutionary Algorithm (HVEA). The algorithm is characterised by three components. First, individual fitness evaluation depends on the current Pareto front, specifical... Read More about Hyper-volume evolutionary algorithm.
