This paper introduces the ”block moves” neighborhood for the Multiple Depot Vehicle Scheduling Problem. Experimental studies are carried out on a set of benchmark instances to ...
In this paper, a recurrent neural network based fuzzy inference system (RNFIS) for prediction is proposed. A recurrent network is embedded in the RNFIS by adding feedback connecti...
Local search algorithms often get trapped in local optima. Algorithms such as tabu search and simulated annealing 'escape' local optima by accepting nonimproving moves. ...

This paper presents three techniques for using an iterated local search algorithm to improve the performance of a state-of-the-art branch and bound algorithm for job shop scheduli...
— Capacitated Arc Routing Problem (CARP) has attracted much interest because of its wide applications in the real world. Recently, a memetic algorithm proposed by Lacomme et al. ...
