I am organizing an invited session entitled *"AI-powered solution
techniques in optimisation of logistic systems"* within the stream *From
Models to Smarter Decisions: Harnessing OR + AI* at *IFORS 2026 (Vienna)*.
This session aims to bring together contributions at the interface of
*Operations
Research and Artificial Intelligence*, particularly hybrid approaches
combining mathematical optimization, machine learning, reinforcement
learning, and data-driven methods for logistics and transportation systems.
Relevant topics include (but are not limited to):
-
Learning-augmented optimization algorithms
-
AI-enhanced heuristics and matheuristics
-
Logistics and supply chain optimization
-
Network design and routing with ML/AI
-
Digital twins and intelligent decision support
-
Real-world and industrial applications
If you are interested in presenting a paper in this session, please let me
know. I would be very pleased to include your contribution.
Best regards,
Shahin Gelareh
