چکیده

Selection is one of the key operations of genetic algorithm (GA). This paper presents a comparative analysis of GA performance in solving multi-objective network design problem (MONDP) using different parent selection methods. Three problem instances were tested and results show that on the average tournament selection is the most effective and most efficient for 10-node network design problem, while Ranking & Scaling is the least effective and least efficient. For 21-node and 36-node network problems, Roulette Wheel is the least effective but most efficient while Ranking & Scaling equals and outperformed tournament in effectiveness and efficiency respectively.

Solving a Redundancy Allocation Problem by a Hybrid Multi-objective Imperialist Competitive Algorithm

A redundancy allocation problem (RAP) is a well-known NP-hard problem that involves the selection of elements and redundancy levels to maximize the system reliability under various system-level constraints. In many practical design situations, reliability apportionment is complicated because of the presence of several conflicting objectives that cannot be combined into a single-objective functi...

Using Genetic Algorithm in Solving Stochastic Programming for Multi-Objective Portfolio Selection in Tehran Stock Exchange

Investor decision making has always been affected by two factors: risk and returns. Considering risk, the investor expects an acceptable return on the investment decision horizon. Accordingly, defining goals and constraints for each investor can have unique prioritization. This paper develops several approaches to multi criteria portfolio optimization. The maximization of stock returns, the pow...

Solving a New Multi-objective Inventory-Routing Problem by a Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm

This paper considers a multi-period, multi-product inventory-routing problem in a two-level supply chain consisting of a distributor and a set of customers. This problem is modeled with the aim of minimizing bi-objectives, namely the total system cost (including startup, distribution and maintenance costs) and risk-based transportation. Products are delivered to customers by some heterogeneous ...
