Population Training Heuristics
This work describes a new way of employing problem-specific heuristics to improve evolutionary algorithms: the Population Training Heuristic (PTH). The PTH employs heuristics in ...

Ant colony optimization for resource-constrained project scheduling
An ant colony optimization (ACO) approach for the resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) is presented. Several new features that are interesting for ACO in general...

Maintaining diversity through adaptive selection, crossover and mutation
This paper presents an Adaptive Genetic Algorithm (AGA) where selection pressure, crossover and mutation probabilities are adapted according to population diversity statistics. Th...

An Effective Chromosome Representation for Evolving Flexible Job Shop Schedules
As the Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem (or FJSP) is strongly NP-hard, using an evolutionary approach to find near-optimal solutions requires effective chromosome representatio...

Crossover gene selection by spatial location
Spatial based gene selection for division of chromosomes used by crossover operators is proposed for three-dimensional problems. This spatial selection is shown to preserve more g...
