This paper presents an investigation of a simple generic hyper-heuristic approach upon a set of widely used constructive heuristics (graph coloring heuristics) in timetabling. Wit...

Abstract The split delivery vehicle routing problem (SDVRP) relaxes routing restrictions forcing unique deliveries to customers and allows multiple vehicles to satisfy customer dem...
In neuroevolution, a genetic algorithm is used to evolve a neural network to perform a particular task. The standard approach is to evolve a population over a number of generation...
Distributed constraint satisfaction, in its most general acceptation, involves a collection of agents solving local constraint satisfaction subproblems, and a communication protoco...
Abstract. In this work we extend a VNS for the periodic vehicle routing problem with time windows (PVRPTW) to a multiple VNS (mVNS) where several VNS instances are applied cooperat...
