Multilayer variable neighborhood search for two‐level uncapacitated facility location problems with single assignment
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We develop a variant of the variable neighborhood search (VNS) metaheuristic called the multilayer VNS (MLVNS). It consists in partitioning the neighborhood structures into multiple layers. For each layer , a VNS defined on the associated neighborhood structures is invoked, each move being evaluated and completed by a recursive call to the MLVNS at layer . A specific MLVNS is developed to solve approximately a class of two‐level uncapacitated facility location problems with single assignment (TUFLPS), when only mild assumptions are imposed on the cost functions. Two special cases are used to illustrate the efficiency of the MLVNS: the classical TUFLPS and a problem with modular costs derived from a real‐life case. To assess the efficiency of the MLVNS, computational results on a large set of instances are compared with those obtained by slope scaling heuristic methods and by solving integer programming models using a state‐of‐the‐art commercial solver. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
