Domain Knowledge for Genetic Algorithms

چکیده
This paper describes the encoding of domain knowledge for use by a genetic algorithm. We use the domain of system connguration design problems; speciically, the structural design and optimization of trusses to ground our discussion and results. The approach applies evolutionary principles to the optimally directed connguration design of complex structures and incorporates engineering domain knowledge into a genetic algorithm to synthesize the topology, geometry, and component properties of the structure. Preliminary results indicate that genetic algorithms with domain knowledge can generate feasible and useful designs.

A knowledge-based NSGA-II approach for scheduling in virtual manufacturing cells
This paper considers the job scheduling problem in virtual manufacturing cells (VMCs) with the goal of minimizing two objectives namely, makespan and total travelling distance. To solve this problem two algorithms are proposed: traditional non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) and knowledge-based non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (KBNSGA-II). The difference between these algor...
