Dhawal Thakkar, Ph.D. student of IEOR, presented his work (under the supervision of Prof P. Balamurugan) on "Customer Feedback driven Flight Sequence Scheduling with Flight Leg Importance Assignment" at the 26th International Conference on Air Transport Research Society (ATRS) 2023 held at Kobe, Japan from 1-4th July 2023. His work dived deeper into minimising propagated delays for high-importance flight legs based on customer reviews and the busyness of the airport operations. His work also discusses different modeling approaches namely dynamic programming heuristics and Reinforcement Learning framework.
ATRS is one of the niche conferences that brings together an international community of researchers and practitioners in the field of air transport, airline operations and management and air traffic and airport regulations to discuss new research, findings and new approach to solving existing problems in the field of air transport.
