This paper proposes a two-phase hybrid approach for the travelling salesman problem (TSP). The first phase is based on a sequence based genetic algorithm (SBGA) with an embedded lo...
Abstract. In this paper, we review some classical recombination operations and devise new heuristic recombinations for the fixed-length subset. Our experimental results on the cla...
This paper studies the issue of space coordinate change in genetic algorithms, based on two methods: convex quadratic approximations, and principal component analysis. In both met...

A cycle cover of a graph is a set of cycles such that every vertex is part of exactly one cycle. An L-cycle cover is a cycle cover in which the length of every cycle is in the set...
The maximum-likelihood decoding problem is known to be NP-hard for general linear and Reed-Solomon codes [1, 4]. In this paper, we introduce the notion of A-covered codes, that is...
