One problem of propagating the globally fittest individual via neighbourhood evolving in both island model and cellular model of existing parallel genetic algorithms (PGA) is that...
The proportionate flow shop (PFS) is considered as a unique case of the flow shop problem in which the processing times of the operations belonging to the same job are equal. A pr...
Crowding is a technique used in genetic algorithms to preserve diversity in the population and to prevent premature convergence to local optima. It consists of pairing each offsp...
Positioning multiple sensors for acquisition of a a given environment is one of the fundamental research areas in various fields, such as military scouting, computer vision and ro...
We show how and why using genetic operators that are applied with probabilities that depend on the fitness rank of a genotype or phenotype offers a robust alternative to the Sim...
