A QUBO-Inspired Computational Framework for Airport Landside Bottleneck Diagnosis and Dynamic Dispatch Optimization

Airport landside traffic centers connect terminal arrivals with taxis, ride-hailing vehicles, private cars, buses, metro services, parking facilities, and terminal-area roadways. Peak arrivals can create coupled congestion across passenger queues, vehicle queues, pickup berths, storage areas, and access roads. This study proposes a QUBO-inspired computational framework for bottleneck diagnosis and dynamic dispatch in this setting. Shanghai Pudong International Airport and Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport serve as case airports. A five-minute state model links passenger arrivals, vehicle supply, pickup berth service, vehicle storage, and road capacity. Bottleneck diagnosis uses service intensity, road demand saturation, bottleneck frequency, queue severity, shadow-price leverage, and a composite congestion severity index. Two dispatch schemes are tested under consistent demand inputs: finite-action model predictive control and quadratic-unconstrained-binary-optimization-inspired simulated annealing. In the strong-peak baseline scenario, the QUBO-inspired method reduces the final passenger queue from 3445 to 2477 passengers at Shanghai Pudong and from 2053 to 1482 passengers at Hangzhou Xiaoshan. Case results indicate different dominant bottlenecks. Shanghai Pudong is more affected by road saturation, whereas Hangzhou Xiaoshan is more affected by pickup berth service. Robustness tests under demand, supply, service, road-capacity, modal-share, and random-noise perturbations show retained queue-reduction benefits under the tested uncertainty levels.

Quantum-Inspired Evolutionary Neighborhood Search for Arrival-Departure Track Utilization Adjustment under Short-Term Disturbances

Short-term disturbances at major passenger railway stations alter train arrival and departure times as well as the release sequence of station resources. Effective recovery therefore requires coordinated adjustment of arrival-departure track allocation, station resource occupation, and train retiming. This study represents the station resources involved in train arrival, track occupancy, and departure operations as zone-level resource-occupation intervals. An arrival-departure track allocation adjustment model is formulated. Resource compatibility is imposed as the feasibility condition, while train delays and resource reassignment costs are jointly considered. A quantum-inspired evolutionary algorithm combined with neighborhood search (QEA-NS) is proposed to solve the model. Perturbation instances are constructed using GTFS timetable data from Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof, Germany. QEA-NS is compared with CP-SAT under the same candidate resource set and feasibility criteria. Both methods generate solutions satisfying the modeled resource compatibility constraints. QEA-NS yields a total delay of 388 min, compared with 519 min for CP-SAT, representing a reduction of 25.2\%. The mean delay of delayed trains decreases from 4.99 to 3.73 min, although QEA-NS requires a longer solution time. Across 10 random perturbation instances, QEA-NS achieves lower total delay in every case. Its mean total delay and standard deviation are 390.5 min and 35.945 min, respectively, compared with 673.8 min and 105.739 min for CP-SAT. The results indicate that, under the adopted resource representation and constraints, QEA-NS improves the delay performance of recovery plans. Its computational efficiency, however, requires further improvement.

Edge-Constrained UAV Small-Object Detection with P2 Enhancement and Quantum-Inspired Lightweight Structure Search

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) object detection requires compact detectors that retain small-object details under onboard computation and memory constraints. Repeated downsampling inlightweight networks weakens shallow spatial information, while manually adding attention orfusion modules may increase cost without stable gains. This study analyzes YOLOX-Nano underedge-deployment constraints by combining a P2 high-resolution detection branch with a quantum-inspired evolutionary algorithm (QIEA) for lightweight structure screening. The search space isdefined by lightweight priority and task specificity, and the evaluation jointly considers accuracy,floating-point operations (FLOPs), latency, memory consumption, and recall. On VisDrone, theP2 branch increases APamall by 31.10% over the YOLOX-Nano baseline. Compared with NanoDet-Plus with similar model size, YOLOX-Nano+-P2 improves APs0.ss by 17.5% and APamal by 44.9%.The QIEA-selected candidate obtains the highest Recallso, but +P2 remains the strongest AP-oriented variant after full training. Full 100-epoch verification of Random-best, GA-best, andSA/QUBO-best candidates further shows that proxy rankings do not necessarily transfer to finalAPse9s. These results support using P2 as the main small-object enhancement path and QIEA as alightweight tool for candidate screening and accuracy-cost analysis.

Coordinated optimization of departure sequencing and section-track allocation in railway short-term concentrated departure scenarios based on qubo and hybrid quantum algorithms

This study examines the coordinated optimization of departure sequencing and section-track allocation in railway short-term concentrated departure scenarios. A quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) model is formulated to represent departure-position assignment and section-track selection within a unified binary framework. Because the quality of a dispatching scheme depends on time-dependent operational interactions that cannot be fully captured by a static combinatorial model, a simulation-based evaluation layer is introduced to assess section occupation, intermediate-station waiting, platform-capacity pressure, running-time fluctuations, and delay propagation. Within this layered framework, conventional heuristics, quantum-inspired algorithms, and hybrid algorithms are compared on the same decision structure. The results show that the QUBO model can generate feasible candidate schemes after decoding, while the simulation layer clearly differentiates the operational performance of the competing algorithms under both normal and disturbed conditions. In the tested scenarios, QPSO-QAOA performs best under normal conditions, and the quantum-enhanced methods reduce comprehensive cost by 4.28\%--26.26\% and total delay by 4.37\%--24.25\% on average under dynamic conditions relative to their conventional counterparts. These findings suggest that the integration of QUBO-based modeling and simulation-based evaluation provides a useful methodological framework for railway short-term concentrated departure scheduling, although validation with real operational data remains necessary.
