Abstract. This paper presents a Parallel Hybrid Evolutionary Metaheuristic for the Period Vehicle Routing Problem PVRP. The PRVP generalizes the classical Vehicle Routing Problem b...
The CLA-EC is a model obtained by combining the concepts of cellular learning automata and evolutionary algorithms. The parallel structure of the CLA-EC makes it suitable for hard...
Abstract. The multiple sequence alignment problem (MSA) can be reformulated as the problem of finding a maximum weight trace in an alignment graph, which is derived from all pairw...
This paper presents a comparative study of Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) for Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). We focus on EAs where fitness is based on penalization of cons...
