The p-median problem: A survey of metaheuristic approaches
The p-median problem, like most location problems, is classified as NP -hard, and so, heuristic methods are usually used for solving it. The pmedian problem is a basic discrete location problem with real application that have been widely used to test heuristics. Metaheuristics are frameworks for building heuristics. In this survey, we examine the p-median, with the aim of providing an overview ...
متن کاملA population based hybrid metaheuristic for the p-median problem A population based hybrid metaheuristic for the p-median problem
The p-median problem is one of choosing p facilities from a set of candidates to satisfy the demands of n clients such that the overall cost is minimised. In this paper, PBS, a population based hybrid search algorithm for the p-median problem is introduced. The PBS algorithm uses a genetic algorithm based meta-heuristic, primarily based on cut and paste crossover operators, to generate new star...
متن کاملAn Efficient Hybrid Metaheuristic for Capacitated p-Median Problem
Capacitated p-median problem (CPMP) is a well-known facility-location problem, in which p capacitated facility points are selected to satisfy n demand points in such a way that the total assigned demand to each facility does not exceed its capacity. Minimizing the total sum of distances between each demand point and its nearest facility point is the objective of the problem. Developing an effic...
متن کاملA Hybrid Data Mining Metaheuristic for the p-Median Problem
Metaheuristics represent an important class of techniques to solve, approximately, hard combinatorial optimization problems for which the use of exact methods is impractical. In this work, we propose a hybrid version of the GRASP metaheuristic, which incorporates a data mining process, to solve the p-median problem. We believe that patterns obtained by a data mining technique, from a set of sub...
متن کاملA hybrid metaheuristic approach for the capacitated p-median problem
The capacitated p-median problem (CPMP) seeks to obtain the optimal location of p medians considering distances and capacities for the services to be given by each median. This paper presents an efficient hybrid metaheuristic algorithm by combining a proposed cutting-plane neighborhood structure and a tabu search metaheuristic for the CPMP. In the proposed neighborhood structure to move from th...
