Annealed Sinkhorn with Momentum: Certified Unregularized Optimal Transport in Linear Memory

Samuel J. K. Chin, Maximilian Schiffer

We characterize Bregman Douglas-Rachford splitting (BDRS) for unregularized discrete optimal transport and develop an anytime primal-dual certificate in linear memory. We first est…

Neural Cluster First, Route Second: Capacitated Vehicle Routing via Differentiable Optimal Transport

Samuel J. K. Chin, Maximilian Schiffer

The Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) underpins modern last-mile logistics, where routing decisions recur over the same fixed service area, like a city. In this setting, r…

Linear Decision Tree Policies for Integer Linear Programs

Théo Guyard, Cleber Oliveira, Maximilian Schiffer +2

We study optimal decision policies, represented as linear decision trees, for integer linear programs with a fixed feasible set and varying cost vectors. Once synthesized for a giv…

Optimizing a Worldwide-Scale Shipper Transportation Planning in a Carmaker Inbound Supply Chain

Mathis Brichet, Maximilian Schiffer, Axel Parmentier

We study the shipper-side design of large-scale inbound transportation networks, motivated by the global supply chain of the carmaker Renault. We formalize the Shipper Transportati…

Contextual Stochastic Vehicle Routing with Time Windows

Breno Serrano, Alexandre M. Florio, Stefan Minner +2

We study the vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW) and stochastic travel times, in which the decision-maker observes related contextual information, represented as feat…
