摘要
En 中文
The addressed machine scheduling problem considers parallel machines with incompatible job families, sequence-dependent setup times, limited batch capacities, and arbitrary sizes combined with the serial-batch processing characteristic (i.e., the processing time of a batch is equal to the sum of processing times of all jobs grouped in a batch). The primary objective is the minimization of the total weighted tardiness, and a subordinate (secondary) objective is the minimization of the flow time. This scheduling problem arises in many production environments like cutting operations (metal-processing industry or garment industry) or in industrial 3D printing. For solving this problem, we propose a new multi-start construction heuristic with controlled batch urgencies. Furthermore, to improve solution efficiency, we use machine learning methods that are appropriate for multi-target regression with dependent outputs (i.e., Neural networks) to minimize the number of starts by predicting the most suitable heuristic parameters. Hereby, different learning aspects and pipeline parameters must be considered. Additionally, we apply a mixed-integer linear program and a local search mechanism with advanced termination criteria for solution improvement.To evaluate the performance of the new heuristic, we use an exhaustive set of small, large, and very large instances (with symmetric Euclidean, asymmetric Euclidean, and arbitrary sequence-dependent setup times) and heuristics from the literature. The results indicate the superiority of the new, learning-augmented heuristics in terms of solution quality and computation times.
