Abstract. This paper presents an empirical study of population diversity measure and adaptive control of diversity in the context of a permutation-based algorithm for Traveling Sal...
The Nelder-Mead Algorithm (NMA) is an almost half-century old method for numerical optimization, and it is a close relative of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Differential Ev...
In a geographical route search, given search terms, the goal is to find an effective route that (1) starts at a given location, (2) ends at a given location, and (3) travels via...
We define the timetable constrained distance minimization problem (TCDMP) which is a sports scheduling problem applicable for tournaments where the total travel distance must be mi...
We study the directed minimum latency problem: given an n-vertex asymmetric metric (V, d) with a root vertex r V , find a spanning path originating at r that minimizes the sum of...
