Logistic regression is widely used in complex data analysis. When predictors are at individual level and the response at aggregate level, logistic regression can be estimated using the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method with the joint likelihood function formed by Poisson binomial...

In spite of its strong increase and relevant position in the evolution of international maritime routes, the global livestock trade is still a poorly treated topic in the maritime business domain of research. Aiming to cover this gap, the authors are focused on revealing the livestock logistics...

We propose inventory replenishment and lateral transshipment policies for a distribution network. The distribution centers place weekly regular orders and daily urgent orders to the factory. Two classes of stochastic demands, pre-ordered and peddling, cause either backlogging or lost sales when...

Workforce planning in logistics is a major challenge due to increasing demands and a dynamic environment. The number of delivery positions is a key factor in determining staffing requirements. This is often predicted subjectively based on employee assessments. To improve decision making and...
