A unified framework for efficient, effective, and fair resource allocation by food banks using an Approximate Dynamic Programming approach

•We developed a framework for optimizing resource allocation by food banks.•A Markov Decision Process model of the problem was formulated.•The value function was approximated using a policy iteration scheme.•Computational experiments using real-world data were used to evaluate the performance of the...
