Abstract:The purpose of our research is to formulate a drone delivery problem (DDP) as a constrained multi-objective optimization problem and evaluate the cost-reduction effect of a drone delivery service using the provisional-ideal-point (PIP) method proposed in this paper. The original PIP method is a genetic algorithm-based (GA-based) optimization method that can efficiently generate a preferred solution for a decision-maker. However, there are two problems occur when this method is applied to the DDP. The first pro… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
