The Decoder, Not the Metaheuristic: A Systematic Benchmark of 3D Bin Packing with Compatibility Constraints
A novel mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) formulation of the 3D-SBPP-CC together with a strong NP-hardness proof is presented, demonstrating that the DBLF placement decoder, not the choice of metaheuristic, governs packing quality for this problem class.
