Hi Manuel,
Hope you're well
I am conducting a research on Vehicle route optimisation problem as part of my dissertation. I have a csv file dataset that looks like this:
I have multiple instance id's in the same csv file. My objective function is to reduce the cost by finding the right weights (any real number) for the heuristics (solver_id).
So I can assign 0 or a lower number to the solvers which do not contribute a lot to the optimisation process and a higher number or higher weightage to the solvers which are more dominant in the optimisation process.
I have split this data.csv into test.csv and train.csv by 3:7 and have put both the files in .\Instances folder.
My parameters.txt file looks something like this:
Now I am unable to understand what to write in my targetrunner file to minimize the cost. I am really stuck on this and the ACOTSP example isn't helping for csv files. Is it compulsory to take txt files as instances? What should be my input and the code in targetrunner? (I am working in windows)
Hoping to receive a reply urgently as my submission deadline is next week.
Thank you in advance, Manuel!
Best Regards
Tanya
