This paper presents a generalization of the Orienteering Problem, the Time-Dependent Orienteering Problem (TDOP) which is based on the real-life application of providing automatic tour guidance to a large leisure facility such as a theme park. In this problem, the travel time between two nodes depends on the time when the trip starts. We formulate the problem as an integer linear programming (ILP) model. We then develop various heuristics in a step by step fashion: greedy construction, local search and variable neighborhood descent, and two versions of iterated local search. The proposed metaheuristics were tested on modified benchmark instances, randomly …

Though metaheuristics have been frequently employed to improve the performance of data mining algorithms, the opposite is not true. This paper discusses the process of employing a data mining algorithm to improve the performance of a metaheuristic algorithm. The targeted algorithms to be hybridized are the Meta-heuristic for Randomized Priority Search (Meta-RaPS) and an algorithm used to create an Inductive Decision Tree. This hybridization focuses on using a decision tree to perform on-line tuning of the parameters in Meta-RaPS. The process makes use of the information collected during the iterative construction and improvement phases Meta-RaPS performs. The data mining algorithm …
