The Vehicle Routing Problem’s main objective is to find the lowest-cost set of routes to deliver goods to customers, which have a service time window, using a fleet of identic...
In this work we evaluate a Particle Swarm Optimizer hybridized with Differential Evolution and apply it to the BlackBox Optimization Benchmarking for noiseless functions (BBOB 20...
We benchmark the pure random search algorithm on the BBOB 2009 noise-free testbed. Each candidate solution is sampled uniformly in [−5, 5]D , where D denotes the search space di...
In this paper, we present a stigmergy-based algorithm for solving optimization problems with continuous variables, labeled Differential Ant-Stigmergy Algorithm (DASA). The perfor...

The NEWUOA which belongs to the class of Derivative-Free optimization algorithms is benchmarked on the BBOB-2009 noisefree testbed. A multistart strategy is applied with a maximum...
The BFGS quasi-Newton method is benchmarked on the noiseless BBOB-2009 testbed. A multistart strategy is applied with a maximum number of function evaluations of 105 times the sea...
Given a set of strings S of equal lengths over an alphabet Σ, the closest string problem seeks a string over Σ whose maximum Hamming distance to any of the given strings is as s...
The restarted estimation of distribution algorithm (EDA) with Cauchy distribution as the probabilistic model is tested on the BBOB 2009 testbed. These tests prove that when using ...
