Aircraft Loading Optimization -- QUBO models under multiple constraints
In this submission we solve the Aircraft Loading Optimization problem of the Airbus Quantum Computing Challenge. Finding the optimal loading for a plane is a challenging task for classical algorithms, especially because the solution must respect several flight constraints. The contribution of this work is formulating this problem and its constraints in a model based on QUBO equations which are compatible with quantum annealers. We then benchmarked the model on different solvers to evaluate the performances and capabilities of current technologies.
