Over deze cursus
The lectures cover an overview of (meta-)heuristic solution techniques for solving large-scale optimization problems arising in transport and mobility. The course discusses constructive heuristics, local search heuristics and mixed-integer programming based heuristics. Part of the lectures are also devoted to case studies, to see how these techniques can be adapted, combined and applied to rich large-scale problems faced in practice
Additional information Tests:
The assignments ask the students to implement and analyze the performance of the discussed methods, testing theknowledge, understanding, and implementation of (meta)heuristic solution techniques for large-scale optimization problems arising in transport and mobility.
The individual assignment assignment provide step-by-step guidance on solving the respective problems. The group assignment allows more freedom, and asks the student
to solve a rich and more practical large-scale optimization problem for which the state-of-the-art does not yet provide solutions.
All assignments require a report to be handed in, and the solution of a given dataset to test the performance and efficiency of the approach.
Leerresultaten
The scale of transport and mobility networks is ever-increasing. This course focuses on exploring the area of optimization methods that are tailored for the large-scale optimization that arise in such applications, with a focus on (meta)-heuristics. Upon successful completion of this course, students are able to
-
explain and differentiate between common classes of heuristic algorithms,
-
explain the strengths and weaknesses of state-of-the-art meta-heuristics,
-
implement heuristic algorithms in code to solve practical problems in transport and mobility,
-
analyze the performance of heuristic solution methods.
