In order to maintain a reliable and economic electric power supply, the maintenance of power plants is becoming increasingly important. In this paper, a formulation that enables a...
In this paper we introduce a simple ant based algorithm for solving a copper mine planning problem. In the last 10 years this realworld problem has been tackled using linear intege...
Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) has become quite popular in recent years. In contrast to many successful applications, the theoretical foundation of this randomized search heuristic...
: River Formation Dynamics (RFD) is an evolutionary computation method based on copying how drops form rivers by eroding the ground and depositing sediments. Given a cost-evaluated...
Multiple travelling salesman problem (MTSP) is a typical computationally complex combinatorial optimization problem,which is an extension of the famous travelling salesman problem...
