Smart EOQ Models: Incorporating AI and Machine Learning for Inventory Optimization
dynami c EOQ, reinforcement learning; stochastic inventory control, perishable inventory,
Abstract
The framework reduced total costs by 24.9% versus stochastic EOQ benchmarks. Key innovation: closed-loop control where ₜ = RL(ₜ) adapts to real-time supply-chain states.
