The identification of mechanisms by which constraints on phenotypic variability are tuned in nature, and the implementation of these mechanisms in Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) ca...
—This paper presents a new method developed for the optimal design of microrobotic compliant mechanisms. It is based on a flexible building block method, called FlexIn, which use...
In this paper, we present a memetic algorithm with novel local optimizer hybridization strategy for constrained optimization. The developed MA consists of multiple cycles. In each ...
The purpose of this paper is to apply the scatter search methodology to general classes of binary problems. We focus on optimization problems for which the solutions are represent...
