Abstract:
Marker planning in apparel production is a kind of packing problem in the research field of engineering. The irregular shapes of pattern pieces of a garment make the marker planning problem more complex. Few approaches have been developed to solve these problems, although effectiveness of packing determines industrial resource utilization. This study constructs a packing approach that integrates a grid approximation-based representation, a learning vector quantization neural network, a heuristic placement strategy and an integer ...
