A Diversity-Adaptive Hybrid Evolutionary Algorithm to Solve a Project Scheduling Problem
(Springer, 2014-09)
In this paper, we address a project scheduling problem. This problem considers a priority optimization objective for project managers. This objective implies assigning the most effective set of human resources to each ...
A Hybrid Heuristic and Evolutionary Algorithm for Distribution Substation Planning
(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2015-12-01)
This paper presents an enhanced evolutionary algorithm to solve the static distribution substation planning problem within large distribution networks. It is based on a deterministic heuristic algorithm to find the approximate ...
Hybridizing a multi-objective simulated annealing algorithm with a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm to solve a multi-objective project scheduling problem
(Elsevier, 2012-11)
In this paper, a multi-objective project scheduling problem is addressed. This problem considers two conflicting, priority optimization objectives for project managers. One of these objectives is to minimize the project ...
Scheduling Projects by a Hybrid Evolutionary Algorithm with Self-Adaptive Processes
(Springer, 2015-11)
In this paper, we present a hybrid evolutionary algorithm with self-adaptive processes to solve a known project scheduling problem. This problem takes into consideration an optimization objective priority for project ...
Hybrid Evolutionary Algorithm with Adaptive Crossover, Mutation and Simulated Annealing Processes to Project Scheduling
(Springer, 2015-09)
In this paper, we address a project scheduling problem that considers a priority optimization objective for project managers. This objective involves assigning the most effective set of human resources to each project ...
Use of the q-Gaussian mutation in evolutionary algorithms
(SPRINGER, 2011)
This paper proposes the use of the q-Gaussian mutation with self-adaptation of the shape of the mutation distribution in evolutionary algorithms. The shape of the q-Gaussian mutation distribution is controlled by a real ...
General subpopulation framework and taming the conflict inside populations
(MIT PressCambridge, Mass, 2015)
Structured evolutionary algorithms have been investigated for some time. However,
they have been under explored especially in the field of multi-objective optimization.
Despite good results, the use of complex dynamics ...
A survey of evolutionary algorithms for decision-tree induction
(IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INCPISCATAWAY, 2012)
This paper presents a survey of evolutionary algorithms that are designed for decision-tree induction. In this context, most of the paper focuses on approaches that evolve decision trees as an alternate heuristics to the ...
Three-phase harmonic distortion state estimation algorithm based on evolutionary strategies
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA, 2010)
This paper presents a new methodology to estimate unbalanced harmonic distortions in a power system, based on measurements of a limited number of given sites. The algorithm utilizes evolutionary strategies (ES), a development ...
On the efficiency of evolutionary fuzzy clustering
(SPRINGER, 2009)
This paper tackles the problem of showing that evolutionary algorithms for fuzzy clustering can be more efficient than systematic (i.e. repetitive) approaches when the number of clusters in a data set is unknown. To do so, ...
