We address a large scale waste collection vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW) complicated by multiple disposal trips and drivers lunch breaks. A fitness search spac...

Hyper-heuristics can be thought of as “heuristics to choose heuristics”. They are concerned with adaptively finding solution methods, rather than directly producing a solutio...
We show how and why using genetic operators that are applied with probabilities that depend on the fitness rank of a genotype or phenotype offers a robust alternative to the Sim...
We propose a crossover operator that works with genetic programming trees and is approximately geometric crossover in the semantic space. By defining semantic as program’s eval...
Abstract- Choosing the best parameter setting is a wellknown important and challenging task in Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs). As one of the earliest parameter tuning techniques, th...
