People sometimes exhibit a costly preference for humans relative to algorithms, which is often defined as a domain-general algorithm aversion. I propose it is instead driven by biased evaluations of self and other humans, which occurs more narrowly in domains where identity is threatened and...

This paper proposes a branch-and-bound algorithm (B&B) for the proactive scheduling problem, which incorporates a degree of anticipation for variability in practical projects. First, the resource-constrained proactive scheduling model is formulated. Second, solving its resource-unconstrained...

The Steiner tree problem aims to determine a minimum edge-weighted tree spanning a given set of terminal vertices from a given graph. As a popular model for numerous practical applications, the problem has been the object of two important competitions (the 11th DIMACS Challenge in 2014 and the...

Artificial intelligence (AI) developments enable human capability to deliver the same outcome at a lower cost. This research performs a high-level matching between AI solutions and challenges within the port area by developing a novel academic approach. This way, the matching is carried out more...

In multi-objective mixed-integer convex optimization, multiple convex objective functions need to be optimized simultaneously while some of the variables are restricted to take integer values. In this paper, we present a new algorithm to compute an enclosure of the nondominated set of such...

In this paper, we present the problem of assigning consistent time windows for the collection of multiple fresh products from local farmers and delivering them to distribution centers for consolidation and further distribution in a short agri-food supply chain with stochastic demand. We...
