The multiobjective Quadratic Assignment Problem (mQAP) is considered as one of the hardest optimization problems but with many real-world applications. Since it may not be possibl...
This paper analyzes theoretically the exact sampling distribution of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) without any assumption imposed by all current analyses. The distribution...
This paper proposes an integrated approach to arrive at optimal build orientations, simultaneously minimizing surface roughness ‘Ra’ and build time ‘T’, for object manufac...
A method is presented that allows one to exactly determine all the characteristics of a PSO’s sampling distribution and explain how it changes over time, in the presence stochas...
—In this paper we present a multi-agent search technique to face the NP-hard single machine total weighted tardiness scheduling problem in presence of sequence-dependent setup ti...
