Vehicle Routing Problem
VRPThe problem of finding optimal routes for a fleet of vehicles to serve a set of customers, minimizing total distance or cost while respecting constraints.
Explanation
The VRP and its variants (CVRPTW for capacitated with time windows, PDPTW for pickup-and-delivery) are fundamental logistics optimization problems. A fleet of 50 trucks serving 200 locations creates more possible route combinations than atoms in the universe. Exact solutions use MIP with branch-and-cut. Heuristic approaches sacrifice optimality for speed.
How kint Uses It
kint solves VRP variants using mixed-integer programming for provably optimal solutions. For very large instances, kint combines exact methods with ML-based heuristics to find near-optimal solutions quickly, then verifies solution quality mathematically.
