Adaptive Memetic Algorithms couple an evolutionary algorithm with a number of local search heuristics for improving the evolving solutions. They are part of a broad family of meta...
In this paper, we propose the island model parallel memetic algorithm with diversity-based dynamic adaptive strategy (PMADLS) for controlling the local search frequency and demons...
The Portfolio Optimization problem consists of the selection of a group of assets to a long-term fund in order to minimize the risk and maximize the return of the investment. This...
In this paper we consider solving a complex real life break scheduling problem. This problem of high practical relevance arises in many working areas, e.g. in air traffic control a...
This paper addresses the Microarray Gene Ordering problem. It consists in ordering a set of genes, grouping together the ones with similar behavior. This behavior can be measured ...
