Bulk Service Queueing for Transit Resilience under Short Random Service Suspensions
Baichuan Mo, Li Jin, Zhengzhong Ricky You +3
Short service suspensions are common in public transit systems, but their operational impacts remain difficult to quantify. We develop an analytical framework for measuring the res…
Optimal Policy for Inventory Management with Periodic and Controlled Resets
Yoon Lee, Yonatan Mintz, Anil Aswani +2
Inventory management problems with periodic and controllable resets occur in the context of managing water storage in the developing world and retailing limited-time availability p…
Quantum Computing Methods for Supply Chain Management
Hansheng Jiang, Zuo-Jun Max Shen, Junyu Liu
Quantum computing is expected to have transformative influences on many domains, but its practical deployments on industry problems are underexplored. We focus on applying quantum…
Robust Path Recommendations During Public Transit Disruptions Under Demand Uncertainty
Baichuan Mo, Haris N. Koutsopoulos, Max Zuo-Jun Shen +1
When there are significant service disruptions in public transit systems, passengers usually need guidance to find alternative paths. This paper proposes a path recommendation mode…
Regret Analysis of Learning-Based MPC with Partially-Unknown Cost Function
Ilgin Dogan, Zuo-Jun Max Shen, Anil Aswani
The exploration/exploitation trade-off is an inherent challenge in data-driven adaptive control. Though this trade-off has been studied for multi-armed bandits (MAB's) and reinforc…
Smart Feasibility Pump: Reinforcement Learning for (Mixed) Integer Programming
Meng Qi, Mengxin Wang, Zuo-Jun Shen
In this work, we propose a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) model for finding a feasible solution for (mixed) integer programming (MIP) problems. Finding a feasible solution for M…
3-D Dynamic UAV Base Station Location Problem
Cihan Tugrul Cicek, Zuo-Jun Max Shen, Hakan Gultekin +1
We address a dynamic covering location problem of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Base Station (UAV-BS), where the location sequence of a single UAV-BS in a wireless communication netwo…
Rhythmic Control of Automated Traffic -- Part II: Grid Network Rhythm and Online Routing
Xi Lin, Meng Li, Zuo-jun Max Shen +2
Connected and automated vehicle (CAV) technology is providing urban transportation managers tremendous opportunities for better operation of urban mobility systems. However, there…
Fatigue-aware Bandits for Dependent Click Models
Junyu Cao, Wei Sun, Zuo-Jun +2
As recommender systems send a massive amount of content to keep users engaged, users may experience fatigue which is contributed by 1) an overexposure to irrelevant content, 2) bor…
Urban Bike Lane Planning with Bike Trajectories: Models, Algorithms, and a Real-World Case Study
Sheng Liu, Zuo-Jun Max Shen, Xiang Ji
We study an urban bike lane planning problem based on the fine-grained bike trajectory data, which is made available by smart city infrastructure such as bike-sharing systems. The…
Adjusting Rate of Spread Factors through Derivative-Free Optimization: A New Methodology to Improve the Performance of Forest Fire Simulators
Jaime Carrasco, Cristobal Pais, Zuo-Jun Max Shen +1
In practical applications, it is common that wildfire simulators do not correctly predict the evolution of the fire scar. Usually, this is caused due to multiple factors including…
Last-mile shared delivery: A discrete sequential packing approach
Junyu Cao, Mariana Olvera-Cravioto, Zuo-Jun Shen
We propose a model for optimizing the last-mile delivery of n packages, from a distribution center to their final recipients, using a strategy that combines the use of ride-sharing…
Data-Driven Planning of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Taxi Charging Stations in Urban Environments: A Case in the Central Area of Beijing
Huimiao Chen, Yinghao Jia, Zechun Hu +2
Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) can contribute to energy and environmental challenges. Among different types of PEVs, plug-in hybrid electric taxis (PHETs) go in advance. In this…
Risk-Averse Joint Capacity Evaluation of PV Generation and Electric Vehicle Charging Stations in Distribution Networks
Huimiao Chen, Zechun Hu, Yinghao Jia +1
Increasing penetration of distribution generation (DG) and electric vehicles (EVs) calls for an effective way to estimate the achievable capacity connected to the distribution syst…
Local Water Storage Control for the Developing World
Yonatan Mintz, Zuo-Jun Max Shen, Anil Aswani
Most cities in India do not have water distribution networks that provide water throughout the entire day. As a result, it is common for homes and apartment buildings to utilize wa…
Robust Defibrillator Deployment Under Cardiac Arrest Location Uncertainty via Row-and-Column Generation
Timothy C. Y. Chan, Zuo-Jun Max Shen, Auyon Siddiq
Sudden cardiac arrest is a significant public health concern. Successful treatment of cardiac arrest is extremely time sensitive, and use of an automated external defibrillator (AE…
Inverse Optimization with Noisy Data
Anil Aswani, Zuo-Jun Max Shen, Auyon Siddiq
Inverse optimization refers to the inference of unknown parameters of an optimization problem based on knowledge of its optimal solutions. This paper considers inverse optimization…
