AbstractThis paper presents a real-coded memetic algorithm that combines a high diversity global exploration with an adaptive local search method to the most promising individuals ...
In combinatorial solution spaces Iterated Local Search (ILS) turns out to be exceptionally successful. The question arises: is ILS also capable of improving the optimization proces...
Memetic algorithms with continuous local search methods have arisen as effective tools to address the difficulty of obtaining reliable solutions of high precision for complex cont...
Genetic algorithms are adaptive methods based on natural evolution that may be used for search and optimization problems. They process a population of search space solutions with t...
This paper is concerned with a specific brand of evolutionary algorithms: Memetic algorithms. A new local search technique with an adaptive neighborhood setting process is introdu...
