Abstract
This paper addresses an integrated problem of vehicle routing and three-dimensional loading with additional practical constraints such as stability, fragility and LIFO. A column generation (CG) technique-based heuristic is proposed to handle this problem. To generate new columns in CG technique, first, an elementary shortest path problem is solved to find routes with negative reduced cost. Then an extreme point-based heuristic method is employed to verify feasibility of obtained routes in terms of loading and other constraints. To speed up the CG technique, fast column generation is also performed by applying an efficient heuristic pricing method. The CG technique, tested on the benchmark instances, outperforms the efficient tabu search method developed in the literature in terms of solution quality and computation time.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
