LDAS: Proposal for Semi-optimal Storage Locations Using LDA and SA
摘要
In this study, we propose LDAS as a method to optimize storage locations in automated warehouses. LDAS combines Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) and Simulated Annealing (SA). We apply LDA to capture item co-occurrence patterns in customer orders. Using a metric derived from the LDA, we develop a methodology to explore storage location in the warehouse by SA. The experimental results using a real data demonstrate that the proposed method achieves higher throughput and greater stability compared to existing methods.
