In this paper, we propose a differential evolution algorithm to solve constrained optimization problems. Our approach uses three simple selection criteria based on feasibility to g...
Efficient Natural Evolution Strategies (eNES) is a novel alternative to conventional evolutionary algorithms, using the natural gradient to adapt the mutation distribution. Unlike...
In this paper, we incorporate a diversity mechanism to the differential evolution algorithm to solve constrained optimization problems without using a penalty function. The aim is...
The Vehicle Routing Problem can be seen as a fusion of two well known combinatorial problems, the Travelling Salesman Problem and Bin Packing Problem. It has several variants, the...
