Abstract. We discuss a general approach to hybridize traditional construction heuristics for combinatorial optimization problems with numerical based evolutionary algorithms. There...
Genetic Algorithm (GA) is known as a potent multiobjective optimization method, and the effectiveness of hybridizing it with local search (LS) has recently been reported in the li...
Many real-world search and optimization problems naturally involve constraint handling. Recently, quite a few heuristic methods were proposed to solve the nonlinear constrained op...
Methods for solving stochastic optimization problems by Monte-Carlo simulation are considered. The stoping and accuracy of the solutions is treated in a statistical manner, testing...
Forming effective coalitions is a major research challenge in the field of multi-agent systems. Central to this endeavour is the problem of determining the best set of agents that...
