(2025) Deep Reinforcement Learning-Enhanced Branch-and-Price for Drone Routing


I am collaborating on the theoretical development and implementation of an exact Branch-and-Price solution method for the mothership (truck-and-drone) delivery routing problem. The approach integrates Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) models for subproblem selection and for guiding column generation decisions, aiming to improve efficiency and scalability. The project is currently in the final stages of theoretical development and the initial phase of implementation.
