Evaluation of field visit planning heuristics during rapid needs assessment in an uncertain post-disaster environment
(Springer, 2022-12)
A Rapid Needs Assessment process is carried out immediately after the onset of a disaster to investigate the disaster’s impact on affected communities, usually through field visits. Reviewing practical humanitarian guidelines ...
A math-heuristic approach for two echelon vendor managed inventory routing problem
(IEOM Society, 2021)
This paper studies a two-echelon vendor managed inventory routing problem of a honey packager company that delivers packaged products from a single facility to multiple retailers and customers. The objective is creating a ...
A capacitated mobile facility location problem with mobile demand: Recurrent service provision to en route refugees
(OpenProceedings.org, 2022)
In this paper, we help humanitarian organizations provide service via mobile facilities (MFs) to migrating refugees, who attempt to cross international borders. Over a planning horizon, we aim to optimize number and routes ...
Stochastic production planning with flexible manufacturing systems and uncertain demand: A column generation-based approach
(Elsevier, 2022)
The ongoing pandemic, namely COVID-19, has rendered widespread economic disorder. The deficiencies have delayed production at manufacturers in several industries on the supply side. The effects of disruption were more ...
Deep reinforcement learning approach for trading automation in the stock market
(IEEE, 2022)
Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) algorithms can scale to previously intractable problems. The automation of profit generation in the stock market is possible using DRL, by combining the financial assets price 'prediction' ...
A mathematical model for equitable in-country COVID-19 vaccine allocation
(Taylor and Francis, 2022)
Given the scarcity of COVID-19 vaccines, equitable (fair) allocation of limited vaccines across the main administrative units of a country (e.g. municipalities) has been an important concern for public health authorities ...
A machine learning approach to deal with ambiguity in the humanitarian decision-making
(Wiley, 2023-09)
One of the major challenges for humanitarian organizations in response planning is dealing with the inherent ambiguity and uncertainty in disaster situations. The available information that comes from different sources in ...
A predictive multistage postdisaster damage assessment framework for drone routing
(Wiley, 2024-01)
