Abstract- Branch-and-Bound and evolutionary algorithms represent two very different approaches for tackling combinatorial optimization problems. These approaches are not incompatib...
This paper outlines a radial basis function neural network approach to predict the failures in overhead distribution lines of power delivery systems. The RBF networks are trained ...

This paper proposes a new niching method named hierarchical niching, which combines spatial niching in search space and a continuous temporal niching concept. The method is natural...
A hybrid Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm is used to tackle the uncapacitated exam proximity problem. In this hybridization, local search operators are used instead of the tr...
The joint replenishment of inventory problem (JRP) requires independence of minor ordering costs. In this paper we propose an evolutionary algorithm (EA) for a modification of the...
