Rzuty karne i upuszczanie

W tej sekcji wyjaśniamy, jak rozwiązać problemy z wyznaczaniem tras, które nie są możliwe ze względu na ograniczenia. Na przykład, jeśli otrzymasz VRP z ograniczeniami pojemności w którym łączny popyt we wszystkich lokalizacjach przekracza łączne możliwości nie da się rozwiązać problemu. W takich przypadkach pojazdy muszą zrezygnować z wizyt w niektórych lokalizacjach. Problemem jest to, jak zdecydować, które wizyty warto usunąć.

Aby rozwiązać ten problem, wprowadzamy nowe koszty – tzw. kary we wszystkich lokalizacjach. Za każdym razem, gdy wizyta w danym miejscu zostaje usunięta, kara jest dodawana do całkowitej przebytej odległości. Rozwiązanie znajduje wtedy trasę, minimalizuje całkowitą odległość oraz sumę kar za wszystkie upadki lokalizacji.

Weźmy na przykład prostą VRP z ograniczeniami pojemności określonymi przez poniżej wykresu, gdzie liczby obok trzech lokalizacji (innych niż „depot”) to żądania.

Załóżmy, że jest tylko jeden pojazd o pojemności 50 miejsc. Nie może odwiedzić wszystkich trzech lokalizacji, A, B i C, bo łączny popyt wynosi 60. Aby rozwiązać problem, nakładasz na każdą lokalizację dużą karę, np. 100. Po jeśli wykryje, że problem jest niemożliwy do wykonania, narzędzie pomija lokalizację B, zwraca tę trasę: Depot -> A -> C -> Depot

Jest to najkrótsza trasa obejmująca dwie z trzech lokalizacji (czyli odległość wynosi 55).

Rozmiary kar

W przykładzie powyżej wybraliśmy kary wyższe niż suma wszystkich odległości między lokalizacjami (bez magazynu). W rezultacie po usunięciu do jednej lokalizacji, aby można było rozwiązać problem, lokalizacji, ponieważ kara za takie działanie przekroczyłaby i skrócenie czasu podróży.

Zakładając, że chcesz zrealizować jak najwięcej dostaw, satysfakcjonujące rozwiązanie problemu.

Jeśli nie musisz realizować tylu dostaw, możesz nałożenie mniejszych kar. W takim przypadku rozwiązanie może usunąć więcej lokalizacji niż jest konieczne do realizacji problemu. Możesz na przykład zrobić to, jeśli: oprócz podstawowych kosztów podróży obowiązują dodatkowe koszty, lokalizacji.

Przykład

W następnej kolejności przedstawiamy większy przykład VRP, który można rozwiązać za pomocą kar. Przykład jest podobny do poprzedniego CVRP, ale tym razem zwiększyliśmy przez co niektóre pojazdy rezygnują z wizyt.

Poniżej znajdziesz wykres przedstawiający lokalizacje i nowe zapotrzebowanie.

Rozwiąż przykład za pomocą narzędzi LUB

W sekcjach poniżej wyjaśniamy, jak rozwiązać ten przykład za pomocą narzędzi LUB.

Tworzenie danych

Dane w tym przykładzie obejmują dane z poprzedniego raportu przykładu korzystającego z VRP z uwzględnieniem tych żądań. i pojemności:

Python

    data["demands"] = [0, 1, 1, 3, 6, 3, 6, 8, 8, 1, 2, 1, 2, 6, 6, 8, 8]
    data["vehicle_capacities"] = [15, 15, 15, 15]

C++

  const std::vector<int64_t> demands{
      0, 1, 1, 3, 6, 3, 6, 8, 8, 1, 2, 1, 2, 6, 6, 8, 8,
  };
  const std::vector<int64_t> vehicle_capacities{15, 15, 15, 15};

Java

    public final long[] demands = {0, 1, 1, 3, 6, 3, 6, 8, 8, 1, 2, 1, 2, 6, 6, 8, 8};
    public final long[] vehicleCapacities = {15, 15, 15, 15};

C#

        public long[] Demands = { 0, 1, 1, 3, 6, 3, 6, 8, 8, 1, 2, 1, 2, 6, 6, 8, 8 };

W tym kontekście rozróżnienie jest po prostu zmienną używaną przez rozwiązanie do uwzględnić daną lokalizację w rozwiązaniu. W tym przykładzie para klucz-wartość powoduje nałożenie takiej samej kary do każdej lokalizacji, ale generalnie możesz kary dla różnych lokalizacji.
