In combinatorial solution spaces Iterated Local Search (ILS) turns out to be exceptionally successful. The question arises: is ILS also capable of improving the optimization proces...
This paper discusses the implementation of local search in evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO) algorithms for the design of a simple but powerful memetic EMO algorithm. ...
Search based optimization techniques have been applied to structural software test data generation since 1992, with a recent upsurge in interest and activity within this area. How...
This paper presents a new Memetic Algorithm designed to compute near optimal solutions for the MinLA problem. It incorporates a highly specialized crossover operator, a fast MinLA ...
