Parameter Setting in a Guided Local Search Metaheuristic for the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem

Guided Local Search (GLS) metaheuristic is a general optimization technique suitable for combinatorial optimization problems. The method works by adding penalty factor to the objective function, especially features that have high cost. GLS uses a mechanism to select features to penalize. We are goi...
