Demand Selection for VRP with Emission Quota
Combinatorial optimization (CO) problems are traditionally addressed using Operations Research (OR) methods, including metaheuristics. In this study, we introduce a demand selection problem for the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) with an emission quota, referred to as QVRP. The objective is to minimize the number of omitted deliveries while respecting the pollution quota. We focus on the demand selection part, called Maximum Feasible Vehicle Assignment (MFVA), while the construction of a routing for the VRP instance is solved using classical OR methods. We propose several methods for selecting the packages to omit, both from machine learning (ML) and OR. Our results show that, in this static problem setting, classical OR-based methods consistently outperform ML-based approaches.

Demand Acceptance using Reinforcement Learning for Dynamic Vehicle Routing Problem with Emission Quota
This paper introduces and formalizes the Dynamic and Stochastic Vehicle Routing Problem with Emission Quota (DS-QVRP-RR), a novel routing problems that integrates dynamic demand acceptance and routing with a global emiss…
Reinforcement LearningGeneral Equilibrium Theory for Climate Change
We propose two general equilibrium models, quota equilibrium and emission tax equilibrium. The government specifies quotas or taxes on emissions, then refrains from further action. Quota equilibrium exists; the allocatio…

Quota-based debiasing can decrease representation of already underrepresented groups
Many important decisions in societies such as school admissions, hiring, or elections are based on the selection of top-ranking individuals from a larger pool of candidates. This process is often subject to biases, which…
