Behind-the-Scenes Weight Tuning for applied nurse rostering

“…(iii) Adjusting only one weight per iteration, corresponding to the target with the largest relative deviation from the acceptance threshold. (iv) Using instance-specific weights provided by Böðvarsdóttir et al (2019b) The first three experiments compare different strategies in the Adjustment phase, while the fourth examines a different output from the Initialization phase. The last two experiments analyze the impact of using less accurate acceptance thresholds.…”

“…We consider two wards, Ward A and Ward B, where we have seven instances for the former and five for the latter (Böðvarsdóttir et al, 2019b). Table 1 presents information on the instances, displaying the difference in size between the two wards.…”

“…Results from Experiment (i) (weights from Section 4.1) and Experiment (iv) (instance-specific weights fromBöðvarsdóttir et al (2019b)). …”
