Thanks to the technological advancements in areas such as the global positioning system (GPS), geographical information systems (GIS), mobile communication networks, and traffic sensors, it is now possible to solve the VRP in a dynamic and real-time manner. In this study, the school bus routing problem (SBRP), which is a sub-branch of VRPs, was optimized by means of an application developed using Genetic Algorithms(GA), which is one of the heuristic methods. By using the application developed based on mobile communication and GPS, the instantaneous locations of stops and the school bus were determined and the shortest and most convenient route for the vehicle to follow was dynamically identified.

The optimisation of VRP over distribution and transportation systems leads to significant gains in cost and time. There are many metaheuristic methods developed for the solution of the problem; and it was observed that metaheuristic methods prove to produce more successful results compared to common heuristic methods. In this study, a mobile-supported visual application was developed using ant colony optimisation (ACO) and genetic algorithm (GA), which are among the metaheuristic methods for the dynamic school bus routing problem (DSBRP), one of the sub-problems of VRP. The ACO and GA methods were utilised via the application for bus routes of a school located in the province of Ankara and the performance of these methods were compared through the obtained results. It was observed that time and distance values of the routes of current school bus routes may be improved by these two methods.

Bu çalışmada, ARP'nin bir alt dalı olan Okul Servisi Rotalama Probleminin (OSRP) optimizasyonu amaçlanmıştır. ARP ve OSRP incelenmiş, problemler ve geliştirilen çözüm yöntemleri ile ilgili literatüre yer verilmiştir. OSRP'nin optimizasyonu için kümeleme teknikleri ve yapay zeka yöntemleri kullanılarak, GPS, GIS araçları ve mobil uygulama desteği ile bir yazılım geliştirilmiştir. Geliştirilen yazılım Ankara ilinde hizmet veren servis firmalarından toplanan rota verileri üzerinde uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen deneysel sonuçlar, geliştirilen yöntemin, mesafe, zaman ve rakım değişimi parametreleri açısından rotaları başarılı bir şekilde iyileştirilebileceğini göstermiştir.
Vehicle routing problems (VRP) are complicated problems, which can be
encountered in a variety of different fields and are not possible to solve using classical methods. In this study, optimization of the School Bus Routing Problem(SBRP), which is a sub-branch of VRP, is aimed. VRP and SBRP have been studied, and the literature on the problems and developed solution methods have been given. For the optimization of SBRP, by using the clustering and artificial intelligence techniques a software has been developed with the support of the GPS,
GIS tools and mobile application. The developed software has been applied on the route data collected from school service companies which are in the province of Ankara. The obtained experimental results have showed that the developed method can successfully optimize the school bus routes in terms of distance, time and altitude change parameters.

Vehicle routing problems are difficult to solve with conventional techniques. Improving routes used in distribution systems provides significant savings in terms of time and costs. In this paper, current routes in school buses, which is a sub-branch of vehicle routing problems, are optimized using the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), which is a heuristic artificial intelligence algorithm. Developed software is used for recommending the most suitable and the shortest route illustrated on a map by taking the instantaneous student wait locations online. Results of this study suggest that the current routes can be improved by using the ACO.

It is inevitable to utilise opportunities presented by information and communication technologies in order to determine vocational fields in vocational and technical training in the most efficient manner. In this respect, it is possible to create a more efficient tool compared to the current methods by utilising machine learning which is an artificial intelligence model in energy applications that predicts events in the future depending on the past experiences. In the current study, a software is developed that ensures that the system learns about the successful and unsuccessful choices made in the past by applying “Naive Bayes” algorithm, which is a machine learning algorithm, to the data collected concerning the individuals who turned out to be successful or unsuccessful in the vocational technical training process in energy applications. In the software developed, it is aimed that the system recommends the most suitable vocational field for the individual by according to the data collected from the individual who is in the occupation selection process in field energy applications.

Data mining and machine learning techniques have been used increasingly in the analysis of data in various fields ranging from medicine to finance, education and energy applications. Machine learning techniques make it possible to deduct meaningful further information from those data processed by data mining. Such meaningful and significant information helps organizations to establish their future policies on a sounder basis, and to gain major advantages in terms of time and cost. This study applies classification algorithms used in data mining and machine learning techniques on those data obtained from individuals during the vocational guidance process, and tries to determine the most appropriate algorithm.
