摘要

En 中文
To overcome the limitations of traditional methods in emergency response scenarios-such as limited adaptability during the search process and a tendency to fall into local optima, which reduce the overall efficiency of emergency supply distribution-this study develops a Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) model that incorporates multiple constraints, including service time windows, demand satisfaction, and fleet size. A multi-objective optimization function is formulated to minimize the total travel time, reduce distribution imbalances, and maximize demand satisfaction. To solve this problem, a hybrid deep reinforcement learning framework is proposed that integrates an Adaptive Large Neighborhood Search (ALNS) with Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO). In this framework, ALNS provides the baseline search, whereas the PPO policy network dynamically adjusts the operator weights, acceptance criteria, and perturbation intensities to achieve adaptive search optimization, thereby improving global solution quality. Experimental validation of benchmark instances of different scales shows that, compared with two baseline methods-the traditional Adaptive Large Neighborhood Search (ALNS) and the Improved Ant Colony Algorithm (IACA)-the proposed algorithm reduces the average objective function value by approximately 23.6% and 25.9%, shortens the average route length by 7.8% and 11.2%, and achieves notable improvements across multiple performance indicators.
