Examples include bio-inspired optimization techniques such as genetic algorithms and particle swarm optimization, and geometry-inspired techniques such as Nelder-Mead (also known as simplex, or amoeba ...

Tan Liu, Qinyun Yuan, Lina Wang, Yonggang Wang, Nannan Zhang, Multi-objective optimization for oil-gas production process based on compensation model of comprehensive energy consumption using improved ...

The considered optimization problem is NP-hard, that is why we proposed a two-level based genetic algorithm in order to solve it. The computational results reported on a set of existing benchmark ...

Immigration is generally considered an option in genetic algorithms, but I have found immigration to be extremely useful in almost all situations where I use evolutionary optimization. The idea of ...
