The abstract follows.
Manufacturing companies have recently shown a growing interest in using
machine learning to improve scheduling problems. In this talk, we will
present three real-life industrial scheduling problems faced by
industries with a specific focus on the application of machine learning.
First, in semiconductor manufacturing, multiple weighted dispatching
rules are used to determine a sequence of jobs. Engineers assign these
weights based on their previous experience. We propose a machine
learning approach to determine the best weight set for all rules,
especially when there is not enough time to derive it. Second, we
propose an integration method of machine learning and mathematical
formulation for scheduling problems in steel manufacturing. This
approach reflects the engineers’ preferences and improves the
performance of scheduling at the same time. Finally, we will present a
hybrid flow shop scheduling problem for insulation manufacturing where
machine learning with the NEH algorithm has been applied. We will also
discuss the challenges of implementing machine learning or other
heuristic algorithms in practical settings.
The next talk in our series will be:

Scheduling Problems.

The abstract follows.
This talk is about the heuristic solution of scheduling problems by
means of heuristics based on mathematical programming, well-known under
the name of matheuristics. Whatever they are used to build or improve a
solution, they always take advantage of mathematical programming in
order to efficiently solve some subproblems. Matheuristics have been
introduced in the literature during the last decade especially to solve
routing problems. Few is known about their application to machine
scheduling problems. I will introduce to different forms of
matheuristics and give a feedback on the solution of some scheduling
problems, making also an outing in the land of machine learning.
