Title
Accelerating the Branch-and-Price Algorithm Using Machine Learning.
Abstract
•A widely applicable approach to accelerate the branch-and-price algorithm.•Utilizing the knowledge gained from previous executions of the pricing problem.•A machine learning method predicting a tight upper bound for the pricing problem.•The exactness of the branch-and-price algorithm is preserved.•The runtime reduction of the branch-and-price algorithm by dozens of percentage points.
