Özet

Many researchers have spent significant effort in developing techniques for solving hard combinatorial optimization problems. We see that both the Operations Research (OR) and the Artificial Intelligence (AI) communities are interested in solving these types of problems. OR focuses on tractable representations, such as linear programming whereas AI techniques provide richer and more flexible representations of real world problems. In this paper, we attempt to demonstrate the impressive impact of OR and AI integration. First we discuss opportunities for integration of OR and AI. Then three applications are presented to demonstrate how OR and AI are integrated.
